Ranking

This has probably been said but will say it again anyway - in ladder tournament it is based on a ranking for a set time of day. Given that players are from all different time zones, this shouldnt be the case however would be almost impossible to eliminate. However one aspect I think needs to be fixed. Currently If a player is sitting number #2 on the ranking, and is challenged by #6, then they swap places. So basically someone can have beaten #3 - #5 but land in a position that is lower. I believe that in this scenario, that #2 should drop to #3 and this continues down the line. This would assist those in different time zones as you can raise your level up high and only drop down one at a time as you are beaten, reflecting more your strength.

Re: Ranking

This is how I wanted it to be when the game was first released, I forget why it was turned down.

Re: Ranking

But then you'll have people lose out on points they actually deserved. Rank 2 and 3 I believe receive different rewards right? So now you'll have the second place person dropping to 3 and lose out on points even though he didnt lose any battles. Same goes for the third place man and so on. It's extremely unfair to the other players who didnt lose but still get punished.

Re: Ranking

Rex made good point,
But this suggestion is pretty good, because it fix the time diff
The main problem is that ppl from sme place have the reset in the evening, others in the middle of the night.
So the unfair adv should be fixed by this suggestion or...
Make a freaking time zonal servers already!!!
But again,rex made good point,so i think that time zone servers should fix this better.

Re: Ranking

Technically......if you are sitting at ...say position 3 .....then you should have already beaten numbers 4+. If you cant beat them and have jumped the queue then they will fight you and drop you back in line. So your not dropping anyone back unfairly. If your sitting in #3 and fought everyone around you, its rather crazy when someone from another time zone similar strength to you, logs in and fights you and switches you from #3 to say #10. Even though you have fought everyone in between, you are penalised in such a large way for not being online around server reset time. However if you only drop back one rank, then your still ahead of those you have beaten and the time zone issue isnt as penalising.

I hope this makes sense - night shifts sux ).

First off the farthest you can even drop from place 3 is like 8, not 10. Second that's how it should be, if YOU lose then YOU get punished, not everyone around you. And you can't use time zones as an excuse, everyone has to deal with someone being online when they aren't and no one has complained about it yet. If you get knocked down then play the game and fight your way back to your position like you're supposed to.
