Ladder Reset from 700 down to 280 ???

So the ladder reset today ... sent me from 680/700 down to 280 .... Given the absurd mechanics that the ladder uses to score ... this is a huge "down grade". I understand resetting to the lowest ladder "league" obtained .... but bumping to the bottom of the previous league is just overkill.

Is this how it's supposed to work? If so, pretty sure I'm just going to ignore the ladder from now on past the 5 game requirement to get the extra tokens at the end. I truly hope they make a change to this at some point (if it is indeed how its supposed to work for everyone).


Thanks! =)

    You do get dropped down when the ladder resets. I don't know what the formula is.

    it sent you to the bottom of the previous league because you were at the bottom of great ball.

    There's no formula. You drop to the second lowest tier of the previous league.

    The current ladder needs some improvements indeed. I hope this will not be the final ladder upon release, at minimum points calculation should be more fair.

    It's expected to have some kind of "reset" at the end, but sure seems too much.

    The current ladder needs some improvements indeed. I hope this will not be the final ranked ladder upon release, at minimum points calculation should be more fair and allow expanded to have be ranked too.
