Gold Commandonut when?



On a more serious note, I think ranked really needs a frequent map rotation. It's really boring to just have to grind the same few maps over and over again to stay competitive with the rest of the top ubers. Some variety would mean that there would be more competition at the top since players would scramble to learn the maps and fight for the top spots (perhaps implement a season system similar to other competitive games). Furthermore, it would be easier for newer, talented players to climb to the top more quickly and claim a spot they deserve because they no longer have the disadvantage of a lack of experience on a few specific maps. Rewarding players for playing games with commanders similar to how games such as Overwatch reward competitive play with gold guns is also a good incentive to play.



Players in the PA community are also calling for 2v2 ranked. Although I agree that this would be awesome, I don't think we're in a position where it would be active at all - we don't really have a healthy and fiercely competitive ranked 1v1 scene at the moment. I believe competitive PA needs to be further developed and promoted in the main game for such a ranked mode to be viable; at the moment it's just a ranked button and a leaderboard. All tournaments at the moment are just community events put on by committed players usually without prizes. I'm well aware that Uber-run tournaments are highly unlikely, but perhaps add some in-game rewards for winning tournaments similar to Team Fortress 2 (Valve awards participants in-game medals for community tournaments).
