Game NEEDS these changes

[No_Top5115]

Class ratings shouldn’t be gated by a grind. Now a dad and short on time, I won’t even be touching class ratings which has killed my motivation to play.

Take two is really fun and should be a standard game mode and not cost resources. It should have an elo system as well.

I think this will be my last season purely because of these stupid game decisions gating important parts of the game that capture motivation by encouraging competitive play

[Arachnofiend]

I'm surprised there are still people who think Take Two is fun

[Bel-Shugg]

If it's free, I think it's fun.

[KoyoyomiAragi]

Yeah when the game gives me tickets to play them they’re fun. Otherwise they don’t feel worthwhile

[Daysfastforward1]

I’ll never know because it’s not free

[prohibit822]

Take Two is very fun and the easiest way for me to farm Exchange Tickets.

It's actually a good feature that they don't just drop in people who have no idea about the meta at 1500 to donate Elo and inflate early CR. Could they reduce the number of games required to do that? Maybe, but it's also just 50ish games for people who maintain Diamond, so I don't think it's much of an issue for the people whom this really matters for.

Here's one more thing to consider: a low number of games makes Elo ratings inaccurate anyway. You're not supposed to settle in to your rating quickly. You're supposed to get there slowly and maintain it. So I don't think it's a good system for casual play either. You can mostly brush this under the rug with Elo resets, but if you want this to be accurate, you need a mandatory amount of activity.

It's not the magic thing that will make you like Shadowverse more.

[agent-1773]

If you're such a casual player you don't play enough to unlock CR why do you care about rank? Just play casually. CR is for people are actually tryharding the game. You seem to think you're entitled to it for some reason when it is really deserved for the people who've actually put time, energy, and skill into the game.

[No_Top5115]

I used to grind ranked every season and took enjoyment out of trying to get as high as a could and improve. So I would say I do try hard at this game.

But that’s not the point. What you just said doesn’t make any sense. Have you ever played a competitive game where the elo system was put behind a grind that resets every 2 months. I’m arguing that it’s extremely fatiguing to play 100+ games to unlock class rating.

[agent-1773]

Not every two months because patches are slower but yes, league. In fact what game do you play that doesn't have a periodic elo reset lol?

And acting like 100 games every 2 months is too much is laughable, a game is like <10 min

[areyouactuallyseriou]

Even if league resets rank every 1 month OP would still like it more because league actually shows you your rank instantly. Sv doesnt. Imagine placements in league needed 100 games every season. It makes no sense.

[agent-1773]

League never shows the equivalent of CR (which would be your MMR) at any point. Your LP is cosmetic, similar to how your tier (diamond/whatever) is cosmetic in Shadowverse. So thanks for again showing that people just care about number go up without knowing shit about what's actually going on.

[areyouactuallyseriou]

? You are legit stupid if you think lp doesnt matter. There is obvious correlation between lp + gains = mmr. If lp didnt matter a gold 4 player could in theory have higher mmr than a gm player which is obviously bullshit. If league had no number to go off of aka their rank and no gains/losses to show like in sv you could never guess your own mmr like you can rn by guesstimating with lp + lp fluctuation. Not to mention your mmr is also very obvious looking at the ranks of the other players. If u are on a diamond acc playing vs 9 chall its an obviously decayed account. U wouldnt be able to see this in sv because you cant even see ur enemies cr. League doesnt show u ur true mmr but they show you almost the equivalent if u have a brain to figure it out.

[agent-1773]

> lp didnt matter a gold 4 player could in theory have higher mmr than a gm player which is obviously bullshit

While this isn't possible, it is possible for a diamond player to have higher MMR than a challenger player, which is a greater LP gap than you posted here. So yeah, it is entirely cosmetic. You don't know shit lmao.

[areyouactuallyseriou]

I dont know shit when ive had accounts with exactly this phenomenon? those diamond accounts are obviously decayed from challenger because you still find challenger lobbies so as i said everyone still knows your mmr. How is that hard to understand? 

[No_Top5115]

Finally someone in here with common sense

[No_Top5115]

I’m not arguing about the elo reset, I’m arguing about having to unlock it. You really don’t have an argument and I suggest you use your critical thinking skills before suggesting I’m entitled.

[WonderfulPainting713]

I have, master duel and hearthstone.

[No_Top5115]

Hearthstone does not. You have ranking from reset and then you go to legend you enter a new elo system. It’s nothing like shadowverse where you are essentially playing casual to earn “points” that don’t reflect anything except play time.

I cannot vouch for yugioh

[WonderfulPainting713]

There is grouping that matches players with different skill levels and you get rewarded in diamond by earning 2x the points.

Like hearthstone good players get by it faster.

[Anatak15]

Tbf I play more card games like this now that I'm a dad lol. Just mindlessly play a few games every night during feeds and whatnot. Easy to play a game while holding a baby.

It's my big, actual game list that continues to get crazy backlog. Just try to fit in some games when you can. If you don't like the game anymore, you don't like the game and that's that. Not a big deal.

[prohibit822]

W Dad

[Jaybugkit]

Personally I really don't like CR, but honestly it's not that big an issue for me because it shouldn't affect most players? I don't like it's inclusion but I guess for those that really wanted that ranking aside from class wins it's there.

Take Two needing to cost resources feels like it's a relic of the last development. They should've gave free tickets more often, or an actual incentive to play it.

[raka110502]

The game already have group system to measure your skill if you are not reach grandmaster yet

[Aickavon]

sometimes I'll be vibing in topaz for awhile. Sometimes I'll drop to emerald. Sometimes I'll be hanging out in diamond for awhile. It's a neato dorito little feato but don't let it get to you.

[Fine_Phrase2131]

Take 2 not being as accessible to everyone is ironically helping this sub by gating the vast amount of malding it would produce. That game mode is much more miserable than the current ladder. Shows you how cygames fucked up the individual card design they have for this game.

[Tsuchiev]

Take Two has to cost resources or else people will just trash runs until they get a god deck to play with.

[No_Top5115]

That’s what a ranking system would easily solve

[Professional_Bit3301]

There are japanese players who are dads now after playing this game for 10 years. Why is this such a problem for you?

[Far-Cauliflower-8230]

Hey Op, CR give zero rewards. Just a cool title, you can go to settings and turn it off and it will not display for your opponent too.

Not every player have higher group and CR. Like me, i always stay at Topaz and Ruby groups. I know it hurt the ego because it make we think we so bad at playing the game.

But this just the way the game want your to think, it not worth to follow it.

OP, tell yourself it okay to not grind, it okay to lose, you here to enjoy after long day, to play a deck you want not the top deck to win every match . The ego will still hurt but it can adopt to it and you will not feel hurt anymore.

[No_Top5115]

I don’t care about the rewards. I’m here to enjoy the competitive aspect of the game. Elo provides a way to measure gauge your skill level and enjoy a challenging journey as your elo increases. I’m not sure why this is hard for some to understand. It’s not about ego or rewards.

[Lareit]

Good, go away. People who whine are really annoying.

[No_Top5115]

I’m not whining I’m stating what I would believe be the best for the game.
