What you saying? Players from 39-100 sucks and only with the mess up match making can they be in top 100? Not so sure about that?

While I do believe Season 1's overall top 100 was much stronger than season 2's (though I'll admit I have no quantifiable evidence of this beyond the points and win percentages from season 1's standings) my point wasn't that players 39 - 100 "suck." What I was trying to say was that the matchmaking algorithm from season 2 compared to season 1 made for an even more unpredictable ranking board and the ranking numbers fell off substantially compared to season 1. There were no diamonds in season 2 and season 2's point rankings ended up being much lower than season 1 (at least on primal).
Aside from a significant portion of the season 1s PVP population not returning to season 2 the other significant change between season 1 and 2 was that matchmaking algorithm which is why I feel it should shoulder some of the blame in why the standard to get into the top 100 dropped off so drastically. Once you got to Gold in season 1 while you could still seesaw in points you generally never really fell out of the tier (at least I didnt), but this is not so in season 2 because of the practical guarentee that you will have unranked players on your team the higher your point totals. At least in season 1 once you reached gold unranked players were barred from your lobbies disabling that excuse for any personal point turnover.
