I ranked up for diversity, but now you penalize the decision?

The title says enough. I didn't to a ton of rank ups, but yes, I ranked up some to up my diversity points, but now you guys nerfed diversity? This seems a little like backwards progress

As a result of feedback presented by the Players, they decided to keep it as per BG. This allows Allies to have multiple Champs spread out over BGs. Fact is, we were the ones who requested it and pointed it out. So, now you have more Champs Ranked. Not a bad thing.
I'm not following this logic or more specifically your use of "nerf." At what point is a Nerf a Nerf? Reducing it from 125 to 50? What happens if it's reduced to a measly 1 point? Yes the system is intact but that doesn't mean that it hasn't been significantly changed since the system itself is based on points. Whether 125 to 50 is a significant change remains to be seen. But based on the changes and their explanation, the 125 to 50 point change is certainly intended to be significant, hence the request for rank down tickets.
If this were the case perhaps they should have said that themselves
They don't usually advise people on what to Rank and what not to Rank. They've said more than once in the 15.0 Thread that they're still making revisions.
Who's this "we"? You mean the vocal minority?
Don't feed grounded he's a troll
We, as in the Player Base.
He's a troll? What about the people who constantly start idiotic threads about the same exact topic like rank down tickets because they lack the intelligence to understand their own stupidity?
War was INTENDED to be WAR with the better alliance being the victor. That is no longer the case.
RDTs were INTENDED for changes to champs, might as well change that as well.
Your logic for RDTs doesn’t make sense since those are for changes to the champions, stats, attributes, etc. not for content changes. Summoners should rank up new champions for new content.
Someone in my BG has a 5 star spidey, someone has a 5 star NC, someone else has a 5 star Mordo, someone else has a 5 star jugs, someone else has a 5 star Magik. So all my 5/50 are sitting on the bench. Waste of resources.
Not that that helps your situation

I'm uncertain on how significant these changes will be when we actually play, so I'm willing to take your word on it. But strictly from a mathematical standpoint, there is no denying that 125 (or 150) to 50 is a drastic reduction.
Concerning the premise behind RDTs, I don't agree with Kabam's distinction between direct changes to the champ and indirect changes to the environment/content. For example, let's say Kabam releases the next season of AQ, and every node on every map has a heal block debuff. Don't you think this change, even though not a single champ was directly changed, warrants some kind of compensation for those who invested in regen champs--whether you call this compensation RDTs or not? .
I literally never said rank down tickets or asked for compensation, they need to start becoming more transparent with their intent on these rollouts, they are not giving the community and player base what it wants to see, and it's getting frustrating working to win in this week's version of AW just for the next weeks to be different
I’m overall a fan of diversity as a tiebreaker. We haven’t been losing wars since our alliance communicates well (aka perfect scores in diversity). We needed diversity instead of rating and it addressed some MD issues in war, although minorly. I’m excited to see the new nodes but ultimately they can continue to adjust and tweak all they want but until Defender kills come back, I personally (and feel free to agree anyone else) see this as a money grab or resource grab by Kabam. It also makes this format emotionless which sucks because it was my favorite part of this
