Rank RP is Toxic

@MabusHades @Cheese9Man @AEUHX @dSKyNafinchin From a previous post of mine. 

Well I know this might be long. I am not the best Apex player nor the worst and I have good and bad days and I have slowly come to the conclusion and really think ranked for both BR and Arenas needs to be updated/fixed. I have been playing since season 1. 

Please do not take the below suggestions to literally they are a starting discussion point only and keep in mind "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one"

The concept of the game in BR ranked is team play whether you are playing with friends or solo jumping with randoms. I get the concept of the current ranked points system and feel that it is decent however team play is not rewarded at its fullest. so here are a couple of serious suggestions for making a decent system possibly better.

1, Remove the placement multiplier for kills.

2. Keep placement RP award as is.

3. Award 15 RP for each kill.

4. Award 8 RP for each assist .

5. Award 5 RP for each revive.

6. Award 10 RP for each re-spawn.

7. RP for kills and assists capped at 75 RP per game.

8. RP for revive or re-spawn capped at 45 RP per game.

9. keep the ranked entry cost the same or make them slightly more expensive seeing as points could now be gained for revive/re-spawning also.

10. Remove rank protection. 

I also seriously think the BR ranked experience would benefit from players only be in ques either one rank above or below their current rank and should only be playing against players one rank above or below them only.

I think the above might be something that works. again this is a team game and helping downed teammates can go a long way towards winning a game and should be awarded. not all players are great assault players but sometimes they are that great support player and getting the res off to keep the team going just like some legends.

Now on to Arenas ranked. I really like me some arenas it helps keep you sharp in cc skills and  I use non- Ranked Arenas as a firing range so to speak. what a great way to warm up. however the ranked arenas point system is not well done or well balanced or whatever, it does not work. I think that the AP system needs to be made clear as far as points awarded goes, this hidden MMR and AP award system is way too ambiguous. Again this is a team game concept and team play should be rewarded.

1. Add a ranked cost starting at silver that increases at each higher rank. IDK say 20/25/35/40/45?

2. No rank protection.

3. Award team that wins the Arena game AP. lets say 60 AP.

4. Award team AP for each match won in a game whether the team won the game or not. 5 AP per match?

5. Award player individual AP for kills and assists. 5AP each?

6. Award player individual AP for revives. 5 AP each?

As with the BR Ranked I also seriously think the Arena ranked experience would benefit from players only be in ques either one rank above or below their current rank and should only be playing against players one rank above or below them only.

I think something like this would allow players that perform well even if their team ultimately loses be able to still gain AP. I mean it is really frustrating when you get 8 kills 1400 or more damage a revive and when you lose the game all you get is AP loss.

let me know what you think.

See you on KC/WE/Olympus or in the Arenas I will probably be the one you just eliminated or maybe not 😉
