    You need only to look at leaderboard to see the faults of this system. Those who have over 500 matches have close to 50% win rate because the more you play the lower your win rate. If they lose and win the same amount of points, they may never reach a place of those who did 100 matches with 70 wins week one and never qued again. How, exactly, is it fair?
    Edit: just checked Chaos' top 100, everyone with over 1000 matches has win rate between 47.1 an 50.5%. There are people placed higher with less than 100 wins.

    Win rate doesn't actually mean anything beyond the fact that they probably deserve a even higher rating depending on what is going on if they have very high win rates. You playing more doesn't mean you deserve a higher rating. People having around a 50% win rate means they've ended up settling around the rating that their skills and matchmaking allows. This is especially true for people with over 1000 games. People need to stop thinking that winrates are a indication of a problem.

    Playing more contributes to activity of the mode, not playing and afk sitting on rating makes ques longer until they eventually completely die like Season 1. So playing more should be encouraged and rewarded, including with rating gain, right now it's the opposite, it's not in people's interests to que more and dead mode is more beneficial for afkers than for active players.
