I just had a game where a druid was standing the whole game on temple mid on an upper position and pressing those longbow skills.. He didnt even move once. I am pretty sick of losing games like that, just cause some pve plebs want that ascended gear. I mean its nice that we got more players in pvp but this isnt the kittening jungle wurm where u have to stand still and press random buttons..

Why can people who never played pvp before instantly hop into ranked? Wouldnt it be better if they had to play a certain amount of unranked games so they get some experience?

I think they need at least rank20 in PvP to queue ranked.

You already have to be pvp rank 20 to even queue for ranked. It being higher could be a way to weed out these types of players, though they do seem to be the type of players who would also farm custom arenas for dailies and get it there albeit very slowly.

yea thats also sth which annoys me, that u get points for playing on aneras.. can be easy farmed this way.

Ok I forgot that u have to be rank 20 to go ranked.. Makes it even more unbelievable what kind of players there are (unless they farmed arenas)

Why not just restrict Ranked game queues to PvP level 35 or 40 and keep Unranked at PvP level 20?
Yes, we would get fewer players participating in a league season, but we could get more viable team players who would have greater knowledge on conquest fights.

Also,
they should reimplement a PvP tutorial for players under PvP level 20, so that they can learn about team fights, stomps, revivals, capturing points and rotations. This would be similar to the PvE tutorial you do once you create a new character.

Sure, players like that are annoying, but the damage to the already small pvp community a system like what you’re suggesting would be a slap to the face of everyone playing the game type. They aren’t that common anyway, wanting to ban new players from the game type until they play 400-ish games would ruin any chance of the community growing. Just take a breath and realize that there are players like that on the other team as well. Farm them if it makes you feel better, but don’t damage the community because you’re annoyed.

I’m not annoyed, just giving a mere suggestion.

I see your point, but I doubt it would kill the PvP community entirely, since it would just weed out some of the newer players from Ranked games.

I’m not saying my suggestions have to be implemented this season, but rather another like 6 or 7. Players would have time to practice PvP and get their levels to 35 or 40.

Also, the Tutorial I suggested could even increase PvP reward track progression.

The PvP level 20 requirement for Ranked games is there for a reason as well, since I doubt people who do try to get to high tiers in the League Season would want to be gambling their time with beginners.

To conclude, I believe that if these changes could be implemented, then there would be a little less “luck/gambling” for getting a somewhat even battle in Ranked and a tad bit more competition.
