Hello @mikogibo and @JimmiePitts
I'm pulling this straight from the announcement of Apex Legends Ranked series 3
We’ll be giving out gun charms, badges, and dive trails again based on the highest tier achieved this Ranked Series. However, from here onward, dive trails will be temporary for all future series. This is to help alleviate the visual space when everyone is dropping to the map, because as it stands now there would eventually be too many trails and they would lose their meaning. For example, if you place Apex Predator in Ranked Series 3, you will have the Apex Predator dive trail available for the duration of Series 4, then it will be removed. Players who earned any dive trail in Series 1 or 2 will be grandfathered in, and will keep the trails forever. We currently plan for a set of 4 dive trails that return in a cyclical fashion every year, so for example, players can get the chance to earn the same dive trails in Ranked Series 3 and in future Ranked Series 7 a year from now, while another set will be available to earn for Ranked Series 4 and Ranked Series 8, and so forth.
In short: they don't want too many trails as they would love their meaning.
In my very own opinion, the incentive to get to Diamond Rank has been drastically lowered now that players only get a dive trail in Masters. It seems like a bad decision to me.
I am however not certain what to think of the temporary trails.
oh, i guess im not doing any more ranked matches! lol it sucks to begin with on Third Party canyon and constant lag
glad i got the season 1 diamond trail atleast ><
im suprised they havent charged people $ to keep their grandfathered trails!

There’s still time :P
@JimmiePitts that’s very understandable. When ranked was introduced I was like ‘I’m going pred!’ to some buddies who’d already left the game so I’d be going solo. From gold on, everything I saw were blue skies, towering mountains, forest and bugs. So many bugs all huddled up. They’d scatter instead of attack and even knew how to set blocks of wood on fire. Yes... the bugs were camping... and instead of squashing them directly. Your team of bugs scattered upon sight as well...
that was the moment I was already done with ranked. Went to plat and even higher tier of campers... but some ppl even went to diamond solo. Brave ppl... only to get your reward taken from you XD thats rough.
