What we need are seasons with some sort of cosmetic reward for your placement. Maybe like a tank skin or decal or some medal to display on your playercard?

You could have an overall ladder and seasonal ladders with separate ELO. Let players choose whether to play the seasonal ladder or oldschool ladder when going into automatch.

But maybe we don't have enough players for that - might make queues a nightmare :(

This right here is how it's done. Starcraft 2 uses a seasonal ladder and ELO system that resets approximately every 4 months. It ensures competition stays fresh and new players have as much chance as established "pros" to reach the top of the leaderboards.

It would be very nice for players like me who only recently got pretty good at the game.

Don't wipe the leaderboards! Just temporarily hide players who haven't played in over 3 months!

Either that or double ELO decay after 3 months of inactivity.

Actually the more I think about it the more I'd be in support of bi yearly or quarterly ladder resets as long as there were seasonal leagues tied into the resets. Hopefully it'd give players more incentive to play rather than camp rating.

A one-time wipe for Brits simply means that Alpha players will capitalize on their experience to get ahead early when it matters most. Expect more of OMGPOP USF situation.

I think wipes are a good idea but if they're going to happen at all they might as well be regular. People should still be recognized for achieving high ranks... A hall of fame entry before each reset would incentivize competing.

That is a terrible idea , i have worked so hard to get my smurf account aka omgpop in the top 10
Ur not taking that away from me Kappa
On a more serious note this is a great idea elo should be left alone though and they should use a ranking similar to what FIFA does .

Reset the ladders now before brits. Just to clear out the deadwood. It will make for quicker match making.

I went so far as to ask if my account could have its stats wiped and was told "no" a few months ago. I'd really love to see a full reset to get the competitive juices flowing again.

I suggested this one week ago but NOBODY replied to this.
If you want to be heard you have to be "somebody".
This forum makes me sick sometimes.

FYI, You don't have to be a PRO player to have good ideas.


or it could be that all the changes have people more interested in this idea now...

I think there should be a quarterly leaderboard but would like to keep all-time stats. Elo probably shouldn't be reset, as resetting it would probably make for worse matchmaking.

But then again, if 400+ rank players haven't managed to get to that top 100, they likely haven't improved enough to actually deserve being there, recent Legends data shows that players below top 200-400 are forever noobs and only a handful of good players play coh2, all of them already being on the ladder, fighting for ranks.


That hurt my feelings. :*(

You guys hurt his feelings too.


Rank wiping is great and I support it, but we can't wipe elo. The shit storm of great players being matched with kittens to kill would be terrible.


I don't see any difference with what happens today. My shitty ELO took me to great lenghts and distances on the ladder, and the likes of Paul.A, Luvnest and Hans already had the pleasure of destroying my pitiful forces in varied ways and strategies.

Seriously, though, AchtAchter's, CieZ's and Cabreza's are nice ideas.

They should wipe them so all the people who bought multiple copies did it all for no reason.

Some nice suggestions in this topic!

I just think the ELO decay is WAY to slow. There is people in top 50 that did not play the game in like 2 years..
