@ArenaNet: Where is Spvp going if we have all the following that is taking away from the ideals of this great game?

MMR is currently unfair when your system is gathering together the top 20 players and facing them off against a group of 200+ and beyond.

Dishonor penalty is treating the symptoms that come after players have already left instead of curing the disease. Which is, why are the players leaving in the first place;
1. Clicking I’m ready doesn’t work,
2. Unfair matchups,
3. Little to none ingame Spvp starter area basics stomp/res/capture,
4. Cluelessness of whats going on in a fight due to lack of animations/castbars etc.*
5. Balance?

-Lack of animation
-Spam
Agreed

1st PIC. Four of the top 20’s vs 245’s and beyond
2nd PIC. It takes 24+ minutes for GW2 system to group the top players together.
3rd PIC. Asura with growth tonic/box o’ fun needed for Spvp.
4th PIC. 4 necros, we need a 2 limit class for SoloQ so matches have some diversity.
Thanks soooo much Anet!

@ MMR: We’re working on a fix for the grouping issue you point out in picture 1. This fix should also help to alleviate some of the queue issue as well.

@ Class diversity: I’ve also seen games (referring to your pics) with a ton of Rangers, or a ton of Thieves, or too many Warriors, or a ton of bunker Guardians. In your pic of the top players, you see 6 of the 8 classes. The community also seems to feel that Warriors are in a good place right now in PvP. That’s 7 classes. You could make a case that Mesmers have a hard time in a hard condition meta, and I think a lot of people would agree with you. They have counters to conditions, but a lot of players don’t like to run those in standard Mesmer setups.

@ Balance: Perception of balance is always changing, so we’ll continue to try to make sure all classes have good options!
