It is important to consider that Square-Enix has demonstrated a commitment to improving and updating the CC mode in the past patches, including the release of a new map in patch 6.3. While the CC-ranked mode may lack certain features that are considered standard in other competitive games, it still provides a unique and enjoyable experience for many players. Additionally, the CC-ranked mode is not necessarily doomed to the same fate as the Feast mode, and improvements and updates could be implemented to ensure its success. Finally, the decision to have a ranked mode separate from the casual mode offers players the opportunity to engage in a more competitive experience, and the existence of the ranked mode does not diminish the value of the casual mode.

It has been suggested in my original post, that implementing improved rewards through achievements could increase engagement in CC/Rival Wings. While it may be perceived that this has been done before, it has not been implemented in the past. Previously, rewards were only available to the top 100 players and many were excluded or did not show interest due to issues such as win trading in the Feast mode. Square-Enix has addressed these issues in CC by restricting access to pre-made teams. However, it is understandable that players often want to play with friends, which is why I suggested introducing a Pre-made vs Pre-made mode to ensure fairness for all players. Improved moderation and stricter enforcement against win trading will further encourage players to participate in PVP modes. By taking decisive action against those who seek to manipulate the game, fair play is ensured and the integrity of the PVP experience is maintained. This creates a more positive and enjoyable environment for all players, which in turn will drive increased engagement in the PVP modes.
