people always talk about what ranking they are. Some are "world series" players. Some are wild carders. The truth is, we'll never know who achieved what and who didn't, because there isn't enough time in a month to find out before everything gets erased back to ground zero. I don't like that. I want to know how good my opponent is by his ranking, and him mine. Why is how good we are such a secret? I say let's put it out in the open, F it.
honestly boss, ive made WS 5 times this year, but I'm at the point where i'm chill with playing in the 400s. I dont need a virtual ranking to know my skill.

Little backstory about me. The highest I've ever made in MLB the Show was Wild Card back in 2018 when I could still catch up with a fastball. But I play another game, little game called chess. You might have heard of me in that game - don't dox me or whatever but my real name is Bobby Fischer.
Here's how chess and RS have something in common. They use the exact same ranking system. It is called the 'elo' system, but that's actually short for the full name: 'elo chess'.
Here's how chess and RS differ. In chess, if I achieve rank 2200, and then don't play for 3 weeks, my ranking stays at 2200. It doesn't drop to 1800 just cause 3 weeks have passed. If it did, I'd be playing people at rank 1800 even though I'm truly rank 2200.
Imagine if I didn't play for 8 weeks. In chess, my ranking would remain 2200. In RS, my ranking would be 400. I'd be playing people that just bought the game yesterday.
If RS rankings didn't drop each month, the matchmaking complaints would all solve themselves.
The rewards system would need to be reworked but SDS is filled with smart people they can do it!
Unfortunately the game caters to the more regular player for basically everything. They do allow for an easier path to gain rewards if you get a late start and they do a decent job of allowing every card to be obtained. The game has its flaws and it’s fun to read people’s ideas on enhancing the experience.
I believe most people that comment on here, comment because they enjoy the game as a whole. Your idea isn’t unrealistic, but I think you may be in a small group that feels this way. If you choose to play this game online in any competitive capacity you have to be active. Sometimes that’s just the way it is. Not everything SDS decides to do will be liked by all. This is not to say that they couldn’t and won’t change. But if this structure works for the masses, what is compelling SDS to change this?
im purposefully not playing ranked so my rating drops since I havent been on much, and I dont enjoy playing in the 800's all time since

honestly boss, I could beat you in this game easily and this isn't even my
game. I would mate you in 8 moves. That's my game. -

so people with WS icons bunt and cs players do not? I feel like all the cs icons are the people that are good, but just cant win the big game, the clutch gene. Not all have the clutch gene.

[censored]. I went to school with these guys that call themselves developers. They are way smarter than you think. They are dealing with what we call in the industry, spaghetti code. I don't envy any of their contractors. Con me, con me con me,.

the bunt gene, yeah. You know my screen name and I'll smoke you any time you want. You'll have Jackie Robinson leading off with Joe Morgan on deck. I know your type. I don't respect you.

What? I have played 2 people all year that bunt cheeses. Both rage quit after the 2nd inning. Most WS players ( not myself ) either are very good at hitting ( not bunting) or just play 50 games a season and finally make it. Matter of fact most of the WS guys I’ve played have records of like 275-256 or something like that and they aren’t even that good.
