One healer moved to Chaos in hopes of getting #1 because Aether ques are dead because there's no decay system and everyone sits on their rating for 3 seasons already and SE still don't gets how to easily fix it (a hint: add ratings decay!). And obviously this ruined already broken matchmaking here as he being low rated (but with diamond skills) was matched with other diamonds and boosted them even higher. There's just so much wrong with PvP in this game it's mindblowing.

Seemed to not be much movement in aether top 100. Surprised people don't complain about people moving data centers mid season.

I'm sorry, but I see almost frozen top 100 on Aether (just compare it to Chaos). Ques may be not dead for unranked, but for high tier matches they are dead, and you need diamond/plat matches to continue climbing.

That's because the board freezes during black week...

Yes, but there were almost no changes in last day before blind week. It was frozen. While on Chaos last day was crazy, just look at Top 10 movement.

Are you honeslty basing the movement/activity of an entire datacenter off of a single day? You want to compare leaderboards that haven't updated in a week?? Should I be screenshotting daily so I can claim said datacenter is more active based on a single day of a multi-month season? Could I claim aether has been more active all season since top 100 consist of more diamonds and has a higher numerical value in both the top and bottom of the leaderboard? No, these statistics mean nothing to the current activity of said datacenters.

High tier matches are still popping, people are getting into diamond/plat and games at that tier are still popping.

Do a bit of research, there are streams and a discord of people still continuing to play.

If you say so. There's just no point to argue with some people, they always think they are right even if they are wrong. But I trust that healer who talked to us every evening in discord more than you.

Sigh... You're in the discord, how can you be so blind?

Literally mindblown at what you're posting. There is just no way you can so oblivious with so much evidence proving you wrong.

What evidence? That person said it was litearlly impossible to get diamond/platinum matches when he moved from #3 spot. You don't trust your datacenter's former #3 player? If there some matches happened in blind week after he transferred then it certainly was not enough. Because in just a week on Chaos he got from zero rating to Top 10 or possibly Top 3 (we'll know for sure tomorrow), thats how active Chaos is in comparison.
