Title says nicely. Bgs are pay to win in victory track when they shouldn't be. Make It rating based. It's the victory track not gladiators circuit. If you think otherwise you are simply wrong. Good day.

    no, it's not because I'm not Batman or Iron Man.

    and if I did have $44 billion lying around, I'd rather try and be Iron Man than buy sodding Twitter.

    Whales spend time working for money, as to which they use to progress. FTP players spend… well time. If you want to be good enough to beat the whales, spend more time and you will be able to do so

    It makes no sense having a competitive mode where people of similar skill/account level are not paired with others of a similar level not even in the GC. Youre legit all wrong. VT Should be rated matches, so equal accounts fight equal accounts. Make It based off prestige. Etc.

    So what would be your idea of a competition? Face the same size opponents over and over and over and whoever has more wins gets top prize?
    You want a ranking system where you can get to Celestial in GC by beating only opponents of your size?
    Imagine the world of sports if you made any sense at all, watching the same 2 teams playing each other week after week

    Only if the rewards are scaled for each skill level. Otherwise everyone should play everyone.
    Finally someone contributes a good idea on this thread. Thank you sir.

    Wrong again. Consider GC is the championship. This is where the big boys play, where big boys fight big boys. VT is the introduction to battlegrounds, and should be similar rating against similar rating(or even similar prestige vs similar prestige) tied to progression. Anyone who says this is not the way is legit incorrect.

    There's no reason the Victory track should not have equal fights. I don't care what kabam has posted as to what their "vision" for bgs are, its legit a cesspool of whale accounts fighting barely paragon accounts who can't do a damn thing.

    System is fine as it is right now (with minor flaws). It’s a highly competitive mode with ELO system (from Gladiator upwards).

    Don’t think you would be happy if it‘s separated by Prestige/Total Champ Rating/Number of R4s or other Factors (=> different Brackets defined by your Profile/Stats). Because at the same time the Rewards would have to be adjusted. No 7* (Titan) Shards for smaller Brackets, just 10% of current Rewards for the smaller people and so on.

    Sure, you would fight equal Accounts then, but it wouldn’t be rewarding anymore. You can’t have the best from both worlds … top tier Rewards + easy matches (free Wins) at the same time.

    The problem here is there is only 1 way to get into the GC, and that's clearing the VT. The VT serves dual purposes. It is for introduction and participation, but it is also a roadblock. Until there are other ways to get into or qualify for the GC, or limiting entry based on progression, you will not see further matchmaking manipulation. So yes, there actually is a reason for going to an open matchmaking in the higher tiers.
