Spar Problem

[Venom_Fish]

For the record, I do not find that a problem. I think it forces good players to actually have to be good lol. If you are, then losing to those guys should be a virtual no-no. If you are afraid to lose to them, you can wait for the likes of me. In either case, gaining elo at a fast pace would be hard as hell for an imposter, a player who is not as good as his/her elo says. For me, I'm like 1700 elo and I spar whoever/whenever. I gain like .03 from some people lol. I like killing you though Koho. You give me like 2.5-3; that's baoss.

Interesting to note that classic servers have had Elo-like spar rating built-in to the game for longer than I can remember.

thats why they have a second rating on classic servers lol basically the rating system that comes with graal..


first number is current rating while second number after the / shows how active they are in spar. the more you idle the more the seocnd rating goes up and you lose ranking.

shows if its a week end warrior or a everyday sparrer, someone that only spars the good or spars anyone in and everyone no bias would have a dif second rating even if the fist one is the same.
