PvP Ranked System needs addressing.

[Viperia]

This is just the same complaints as every online PvP game with matchmaking in the history of forever. "I love the game, but I keep getting bad teams!"

Can't win because my team sucks. Can't win because of bad balance. Can't win because other team had better comp/classes. Can't win because no comms. Can't win because of lag. It's everyone's fault except mine.

How is it possible that there are champions at games like Poker or Yugioh if what cards you draw are random? The answer is that you can't expect to win every match, but by playing the hands you're dealt intelligently you can manage a >50% winrate which is enough to advance as long as you play enough games. Everyone is subject to the same RNG, and for every person who keeps going on losing streaks there's someone else going on winning streaks. The only consistent factor across every match is you.

If you're going on losing streaks consistently and can't push your winrate over 50 even after hundreds of matches, that means you're already at the right tier for your skill level. Ranking isn't like leveling up, it's not a progression system. It's a system designed to place people where they belong.

I'd also like to point out that this mode and PvP revamp is literally 3 days old and filled with people who have never PvP'd in their life. Even if people knew what they were doing, it takes time to learn proper meta strategies and techniques. We're still far from that, most players are still learning the absolute basics like how to play their job and the objective.

Dude I can't believe how many people simply cannot accept this fundamental idea. If you're hardstuck in a certain rank, maybe you belong there at this moment because that's where your skill level is at.

I'm not saying uh-oh you're at the absolute limit of your skill potential and this is it. But think deeply about whether you've really deliberately and intentionally looked at your mistakes and tried to learn from them? Or did you lose, complain about rng and how your team is a buncha shitters, and then requeue immediately.

Think about it, your team and the enemy team are just as equally likely to have shitters. If you really are the godsent pvp gamer you think you are, you're always gonna have an advantage because your team only has 4 shitters, while the enemy team has 5. If you truly deserve to be at a higher rank, you will get there.

Instead of complaining about rng and how the ranked system is unfair, go watch a guide or something.
Are you using Guard when the wind starts blowing on the tornado map? Using Guard both proactively and reactively, instead of just panic guarding at 10% HP? Using Guard at all?
Are you avoiding attacking the enemy SAM when they're at full LB? Watching for DRG's LB AOE marker? Avoiding clumping up when WHM has full LB?
Are you keeping track of the enemies' HP and LB bars? etc. If not, go fix it and improve, and you will climb.
