    While I agree with much of your post, this part is objectively not true, the two ideas are not mutually exclusive. It is a ranking reward, yes, and it induced FOMO in many players who learned about it. That's why this type of post keeps being made, after all - people missed out, it's a bummer, we don't want it to happen again with Series, and we'd like to have this backlog of mistakes fixed for the sake of consistency and welcoming newcomers.

    You have newcomers unable to access rival wings because everyone that played before has... *sigh*
    Adding those rewards fixes things for everyone that wants them. It doesn't fix rank however. I would argue that rank would get slightly worse while casual sees a ton of activity. It is a solution that works in the short term but backfires in the long term. Everyone plays and grabs the rewards. Now what? Rank already has nothing exclusive. Are we supposed to continue in that direction? If so, I see no hope for rank. It's already bad enough we're letting people ride to platinum while actively punishing those below that rank just to keep low rank queues going.

    Damn, someone caring more about the state of the PvP ranked mode itself, than the 3 pixels tied to it. How refreshing. You will still will fall on deaf ears, they want "item item item now and always for everyone, because f PvP ranked"
