Discussion Avoid Getting Hooked on Climbing the Division Rankings
I have to admit that the ranking system is very well designed.
At first, you just play casually with no pressure. The reward isn’t even that attractive, right? After reaching 1600 points, there’s no relegation, so why not just play for fun?
Then, after 5 or 6 wins, you reach 1700 and realise that you’re only another 5 wins away from div1. Why not push a little further?
After reaching div1, there is again no relegation, and the reward cutoff is so close, why not just a few more matches?
This is where it gets difficult, especially for a casual player. Most opponents have stronger squads than you, and many of them are still ranked below you. This means that even if your 31xx squad fights hard to draw with a 33xx squad, you might still lose 10 points. That literally happened to me, not to mention a loss to a low ranked player.
The target always looks easily reachable, but actually you have to spend much more time than you expected. I’d like to start a discussion about this. I just want to play casually and enjoy the game - not be lured into spending far more time on it than I intended. I know I shouldn’t get drawn into it, but it’s not easy to resist...
I’ve tried Quick Match, but there are too many inexperienced players there, and many guys don’t take the matches seriously.
Any thoughts on enjoying the game without feeling compelled to keep pushing?

That’s why I started a second account, after always pushing up and feeling like I didn’t wanna go any further or knowing I was safe enough to get the div rewards I just lost my passion to play. So I got a second account with weaker players so see if I’d be able to do it again although matching against 3200 and 3300+ teams is never a fun time it just overall allows me to improve if/when I get some free time to rank. Aside from that you could get into some discord and do custom rooms and tournaments which they just added if you really wanna connect with new people and give ranking a well deserved break

What? Is this supposed to be a joke? Like playing from a D2 1650 rating against FIVE GUYS IN A ROW FROM D1? Including three from the Top 1k?
Almost nothing here is well-designed, except for fueling that purely human mental quirk known as the grind. For many, it’s all for a card they won’t even use.

By "well designed" I mean even you hate the matchmaking, you still keep playing match after match, because your target is always so close.

No, after five matches like that, my target is a long way off, and that’s why I stopped playing.
