[h3]PVP Season 5[/h3]
Season 5's starting ranks will depend on your rank from Season 4.
All ranks will be decreased by 3 and the highest rank possible at the start of Season 5 is B1 and the lowest is D1.
However, E Ranks will all be reset to E1.
New RankThe point of the rank system is to give a goal for the players to work towards and also to give them a sense of accomplishment. We also wanted the rank to be an indicator of a player's skill.
In Season 1, we felt the ranks gave players more despair than accomplishments due to rank decreases from losses and made players lose interest in the PVP of KurtzPel. Because of that, we decided to not let ranks fall until a player has reached a certain rank.
In Season 4, we hoped to have made the queue times shorter than with the increased number of players in S Rank.
Due to the increase of S and G rank players, we wanted to improve the ranks by adding a new M Rank to the system.
• M Rank will allow players to understand the proper skill level of a high-ranking player.
• For players that were having a hard time going from S to G, M rank will give them a shorter-term goal to work towards on their path to G rank
Rating Placement Segment IncreaseDue to the presence of Promo Matches, there were a lot of players having a hard time ranking up due to losing their Promo Matches constantly. Many players stopped climbing at a certain point due to the stress of ranking down.
• From S1 ~ G3 Rank, your ranking will now be reflected by your rating placement.
• For Ranks S1 and higher, your rating will decrease if you don't play any matches for a certain period
• Your character info and leaderboard placement will be shown starting from A Rank
AI Matchmaking for Certain RanksIn low rating area, if your matchmaking takes too long, you will be matched with AI bots with the skill appropriate for your current rank.
Rank Related Feedback Increase• You will now be able to see your rank and progress while inside Eltheca
• If your next match is your promo match, it will be shown inside the Mission Map window
• At the start of your promo match, your promo info will be shown
• When your rank is changed, the presentation in the result screen will be improved
