Guild Wars 2

I’m pretty bad. Maybe not that bad, but I’m definitely not keeping up with the rate at which my opponents are in the ranking system.

In rabbit league I could sort of hold my own. In deer league I’m definitely extremely ineffective.

I think having a rating system like they use in HoN could help. That way the bads like me can at least win about half the games and lose about half. As it stands in the league I’m in now, I’m a liability. I feel bad for anybody that has to carry me, but -let’s face it- not everybody learns how to pvp well at the same rate.

People at the lower end of the curve are going to stop playing entirely, I think. That may be good news for the good players out there, but I don’t think Arena Net wants even the bad players to stop playing.

Hi, first off, let me introduce myself as a terrible. I’m bad at pvp. I’ll never be any good at it. I still enjoy it, as long as I’m not being forced to play against people much, much better than me. That means in sPvP (which is the only pvp I enjoy) the more I play, the worse it gets for me, which is a real dilemma.

I’m not getting any better. Not at the rate the people in my new brackets are, at any rate. I frequently find myself getting outplayed at nearly every turn.

I partially understand the rationale behind seeding people of approximately the same glory rank in the same sPvP bracket, but I think its not achieving its intent. Glory rank isn’t any kind of indicator of skill. I’m in the “deer” league right now, and really I belong in “rabbit” still, and probably forever.

I would like to think that Guild Wars 2 was designed for people of all skill levels to enjoy all aspects of the game, but I don’t see how myself, or other terribles are supposed to continue spvping with the rank system as it stands. There has to be a place for us.
