    They need rank decay during the season (series?), not just between them. If people can get the rank they want in week one, they don't need to play again for the rest of it, making it basically impossible for anyone who wasn't there at the start to participate.

    Rank decay does nothing to address people not even being interested to attempt ladder, it's purely a thing that affects the top-end.

    The onboarding rate of players in Ranked is significantly lower than the churn rate (i.e. the rate at which players quit ranked or heavily reduce how much they participate in). Furthermore, the rate of how fast it churns is also turbo-accelerated into a death spiral by ever-increasing queue times.

    Between having a fairly terrible way to introduce people into pvp in the first place by being in the furthest corner of low level La Noscea, a playguide that leaves MUCH to be desired considering how hidden it is within submenus and NPCs and an absolute tragedy of rewards being handed out at a basic level, it needs a change at the bottom end before all else.
