Ranked demotion

winnnetou

There is something wrong with the ranked demotion system and it should be changed.Let me explain my situation, for an example.I am, for a few days now, top 1 in ranked hmx, ranked diamond 1, since than i cannot use expand anymore and even if i stay in queue for hours or keep restarting it for hours game doesnt match me almost with anyone, i keep getting 1/12 to max 3/12, than again 2/12 and back to 1/12.It is not my fault that others played less and they are lower in rank, i gained my points fair and it isnt fair at all that i loose not even 1 point after queueing for hours everyday.So heres the change that i suggest: if anyone spend at least an hour in queue and still cant start a game, it should be considered as he played that day and avoid rank demotion and loosing points.

My thought about the situation is that your rank is too high and the system should remove the levels for HMX because as you said, you can not queue with anyone due to being a high level player ( I meant diamond, plat, master, etc.....)

I can also just go in queue and when it almost 16/16 the queue. I just click canel, wait some seconds and queue again do it too. So no -1

U have a personal thing with me ur its just ur way to be only negativist and distructive ? Farlight? If its the first one i may understand but if its the second one, u need to be seen by .......

In my opinion its very unfair for you and others that will reach diamond but i doubt the players would play hmx a lot more than they do right now, you wont have players to play with unless gm's plan to make an event to revive that ranked mode. I suggest you to go for knife ranked since i believe its EXTREMELY easy to reach master. You could also suggest to revert the expand matching range to how it was before this season only for hmx but i doubt that would please you.
About your suggestion.. i think it can easily be exploited and maybe even abused so players can avoid the demotion without playing when they can actually find games.

I dont think it can ce abused if u need to stay an hour in queue to prove that u wanted to play

As i understood, your suggestion applies to all ranked modes. What if i were a master 1 in snd that doesn't wanna play ranked anymore until the end of the season but at the same time i want to avoid the demotion. I could go in EU or NA servers at 1-2 am server time and search for hours

I think the demotion system shouldn't be there in the first place. To be fair I can't think of a reason why it's good it exists. I think a system should be in place where players need to pay GP for not getting demoted or something.
