Ultimate League Play For Ultimates

Bit of a vent, as I'm still climbing the ranks to 50, but wondering if it would be useful for a Ultimate League only option for those that have hit 50.  On one side, it can be annoying to be constantly going up against Ultimates when grinding to Ultimate yourself.  Don't get me wrong, it's great experience to learn from, but sometimes it just makes you wish for better odds to win.  On the other side of the coin, I know Ultimates can get bored with the concessions or opponents skill not being at their level.  Going against other Ultimates may prove a better challenge.  Thoughts?

    Hmm. That's a pretty good idea.

    I mean, I do think that players that are pretty close of reaching rank 50 (40+) can face an Ultimate League player with no problem, but I also agree that it is ridiculous how often you can face people with 2 or more leagues of difference in between. Sometimes I still get matched to Bronze-Silver league players. But yeah, I think that this option can benefit all of us, both high and low rank players in equal.

    I don't really want to go higher than diamond league because of the season reset I start back in silver, so more easy gems.
    So after I hit diamond I play casual because the bottleneck of taco and UL players gets frustrating in ranked. I wait for it to settle.
    Usually in casual I'm using heroes I don't normally use for the ticket boost, so when I go up against UL I instantly concede and will continue to do so. I've got no time to sit in a 5-10 minute game where I will most likely lose. And I've got nothing to lose by doing so.
    Often now there's 3-4 UL in a row in casual. Ridiculous.
    So I've come back to ranked. Gladly I'm going up against fellow diamond leaguers but with a few too many taco and UL.
    It is RANKED. I'm a RANK 33 diamond league diamond badge player. I should be going up against similar ranked players almost all the time. A UL is 17 ranks higher than me!
    For this reason alone I feel ranked and match making are broken.
    You don't get to the top by playing players already there, you've got to work your way up.
    I'm not sorry to all the UL in casual that are instantly conceded to and can't get a game. Because they are as much a victim of this poor match making as anyone.

    Ranked system is broken because I can get my butt kicked by a guy that never plays league only casual and how can a guy that not have a rank play an ultimate league player?
    Cuz all it is is track of games. Personally I think the only thing better of league is less people getting frustrated and quit the second round they'll actually try

    But I seem to have more fun in casual because of probably not so stressed about losing a star. Believe me I know all about winning 4 games and then lose 1 and another and then after being a win away from level up and back at 1 win lol. Been there plenty of time and I play on through cuz those are the times...for anyone who is reading my ramblings...that you can learn how to find cards that beat multiple people and strategies and the more that one specific can do to a variety the better or the badder the card.
