Dorps buddy, the answer to your quick question is a quick answer. I play on a european server and im going bed now.
The line you wrote about me wanting a system where ‘if you win you should move up ranking points’ tells me that you missunderstand all of my previous posts. I have never asked to gain points when you are ranked 1st, i only said you shouldn’t lose points when you are 1st and beat both other server that you are playing against in your bracket. I think that’s that perfectly understandable, if you disagree so be it, i’m not going to argue with you anymore, like i said it’s bedtime for me, cya around.
When you say ‘If you perform to what you are expected you stay lvl’ is wrong, ‘cause you actually lose ground here even when you outplay the 2 other servers in your bracket.
’If you out perform you go up’ … you can’t ‘out perform’ in order to go up, you would have to have a point income of at least 500 to ‘go up’ at the end of the week, and that’s impossible, it has nothing to do with YOUR servers performance, the 2 other servers would have to be asleep day and night.
And as for the argument ‘you go up when you under perform’, 1-4 points was nothing in wow, have you actually ever played, ‘cause i’m doubting. You gained a rediculous low amount of points when you got matched up against a team much lower ranked than your own, it had no impact on the ranking at the end of the day. You were actually just hoping for the fight to be over asap and get matched up against a team with ranking equal to yours, in order to gain points. And btw, a team that had much lower ranking did not even lose ANY points.
Dorps i played WoW for about 7 years, arena and rbgs, i don’t know what you are talking about. Even if you played against a team 200 points lower than your own, you didn’t lose points after winning the game. Sometimes you gained only 1-4 points, but you never lost any if you won. Only if loss or tie.
If this was any true and ‘fair’ as you call it, this system would be used commonly, which isn’t the case. In all popular pvp games you gain points when you win, here you lose regardless how many points you score (unless you control the entire map, and that’s absurd).
There is no motivation in putting effort in holding your server on top, simply because you can’t, and that’s where the problem is.
So in order to stay on top you cannot relax for a minute or you will landslide in rating.
None of the top servers are ‘relaxing’, many win their bracket and still lose a LOT of points against the servers they beat, but end up behind them after the next match making, pretty sure this system doesn’t exist in any popular sports/e-sports.
Why is a server that is ranked 1st in its bracket (at the beginning of a new match-up) automatically losing points towards lesser ranked servers? There is no chance of holding your ground unless you score maybe 500 points at all times (and that’s rediculous).
The servers that are ranked behind the 1st server in a bracket get an insane amount of total point boost even if they score FEWER points than the top server that is WINNING the bracket at the end of the week.
I have not seen this kind of ranking anywhere (in sport/e-sport) ever, would you mind explaining please, thank you.
