Community Manager@hayhor Twitter leaks, also RANKED CHANGES:
- Ranked Points(RP) removed
- Ladder Points coming to the ranked “aims to put emphasis on winning the battle royale versus racking up kills”
- Matchmaking will be based on your skill, not rank This means the matchmaker will build games based on skill, not purely on your ladder placement
- Splits have been removed, rank will reset per season
- Minimum required account level is now 50
- Now you can't get kp by killing a player more than once, means people can't boost with beacons anymore
- Provisional matches have been added.
- Entry cost is now same for all ranks.
I don't understand some of these changes, like the entry cost being the same for all ranks, or the mm being based on skill (?).
Ehh let's just wait for the blog post that'll release tomorrow which will include some more detailed information to the ranked changes they are making.
The changes on their own (assuming they're correct) will not really reveal a lot to why and what they've got planned.
