That's the post.

The rest is assorted lies; about him getting every gladiator (this is the first one in at least 2 seasons he's gotten lmfao, deadly season was Rival x Boxis, WF season was Brad x Psycopytk), about him swapping comps to counter, he in fact kept queing ret / disc with me, after virdo swapped to a countercomp against us.

While on the one hand I'm tempted to just zugzug and say "git gud", I'm still recommending we revamp our reward system.
Example;
Rank 1: Season glad title / mount and below
Rank 2: Duelist title and below
Rank 3: Rival title and below
Rank 4 & 5: Challenger title

or whatever feels fits, can put in regular glad title in rank 2 if wanted.

I didn't re log to counter, because my partner doesn't have gear enough to win

Today is when arena reset happened and it was not even hard to bet, who will be rank 1. A player who is rank 1 nearly every season. A new season started, and the same player is going fort he rank 1 again, just needs a few rating, and later surely will climb up to the ladder, making it impossible for everyone else to reach and beat that player. I am talking about player named Reck with the rest of his pvp characters. This is current problem we are facing right now in-game. Every season he is rank 1, and nobody else gets the chance to reach it. Instead, he farm this rank all seasons on his all characters, 1 by 1. Myself and other people can approve this, and i believe the Staff can somehow check the past seasons, i am sure that player is always rank 1 for some time now. And when i say time, i mean year(s).

So my suggestion of the day will be, that the player who has reached rank 1 in arena, should not be able to reach it again, even if he is rank 1. On next season reset, just disable / ignore him and his team, and let the next team that is not him be the rank 1 and get the rewards! Let other players get the chance and have some fun too! Actually he should not be eligible for all arena rewards, beside the arena points.

This type of play style the player doing is unfair and not even fun. This is what also kills motivation and fun for other people including myself. Some people want title, achievements, mounts, and cannot get it, because the rank 1 is always his. Now let me explain how and what that player does to be rank 1 every season. This is from my sight as in how i see it, and how other people see it, because we have been talking about this for some time with other players;
Player Reck makes an arena team, finds the current best player. They make a combo and play it to highest rating. He wins all games, yes he lose a few. But when the losing is being too much, he logs other char, and gets either a different partner, or stays with same one, but that one switches to a different class to simply counter the team that was winning against his original team that is on rank 1. Preventing the team from going up the ladder and to pass his team which is rank 1.

So in short: Same players, but different chars, to counter and win. If he lose on 2nd team, then he moves forward by moving to other alt/class and different combo to counter again. This being repeated till his 1st rank team is secured and safe, and will stay like that till end of season. That is how a Truewow player keeps getting rank 1, and presenting himself as best arena player. And nobody else is allowed to be rank 1, except himself and his chosen partner. But all this can be simply changed, if we step together and make some more changes.

Players that actually play and want to progress and get to the rank 1 is way too hard and not even worth it at this point. Unless some changes are made. It is really unfair that same person but different chars and partners is always holding rank 1. Simply just disable for him to be rank 1 even if he reach it, let next one that is not him, get the chance and get those rewards!

Forgot to mention. The player camps arena 24/7. So whenever you queue, you cant even avoid him. Unless we have several teams queuing, however, that wont help, he will still hold rank 1 at the end. In fact, that would even help him to get even more rating. This change would be much appreciated.

I didn't read through the discussion, but I assume the problem is mostly related to a small pool of players, which allows for sniping / counterpicking / farming specific teams. If it's all about a player being too good, that's just how it works unfortunately.

Given it's the first case. What if getting into the top 8 would qualify you to a tournament? Obviously the same player cannot join through multiple teams, nor can you play with team members 100 player rating away from team rating.

In terms of format, set it up over a month or so, allowing everyone to attend. I doubt you find a single day where all teams are available.

i.e.
Week 1-2: Group stage (Round robin Bo3)
Group A: 1, 4, 5, 8 / Group B: 2, 3, 6, 7

Week 3: Semi finals (Bo5)
1st A vs 2nd B / 1st B vs. 2nd A

Week 4: Grand finals (Bo5)

If an earlier stage wraps up early you can start the next stage early, but it is up to the teams to find a time which works for both sides. The weeks are just to have them wrap up a stage within the month.

Thats great idea, but still trounament isnt in game, someone will be obliged to organize, and still players will be limited to 1 char, tournament or regular que you cant play vs your team.
Problem is that we had same player in 3 teams from top 5 teams, so many ppl wont even play cause of that, u will always get same oponent just diferent team, rating and char.
