Can we please get a meaningful ranked system?
It's a shame that PTCGL is the only Online Client to play the Pokemon TCG and is without a ranked system that players can use seriously.
As someone who uses PTCGL to prepare for Major Tournaments (Cups and Regionals), i need a place where i can reliably play against the strongest players (or at least players on my level) with the strongest decks. Here is some suggestions, on how to improve the Ranked Mode:
-Separate Ranking and Points. Make it so that points will be given passively by playing the game, similar to how PTCGO handled things. You can reset the point system monthly and give players gameplay items, booster packs, cards etc. without affecting the ranked queue system. Then you turn the ranking system into something that you have to actually work your way up to.
-Split Ranking into two Parts: Player and Deck Ranking. If you're a high level player, but you play a new deck, drop into a lower bracket of matchmaking and work your way up from there. Prevent players from having to play against Fun-Decks at high level of play, when they want to improve their skills without having to play offline.
-Make Seasons longer. Now that players have a resettable way of gaining items as well as a good way to train on decks, make the seasons equal to the battle passes. This way MMR resets whenever a new set releases, perfect to adjust your decks to the new meta.
