Difficulty with Glory Rank Seeding

Hi, first off, let me introduce myself as a terrible. I’m bad at pvp. I’ll never be any good at it. I still enjoy it, as long as I’m not being forced to play against people much, much better than me. That means in sPvP (which is the only pvp I enjoy) the more I play, the worse it gets for me, which is a real dilemma.

I’m not getting any better. Not at the rate the people in my new brackets are, at any rate. I frequently find myself getting outplayed at nearly every turn.

I partially understand the rationale behind seeding people of approximately the same glory rank in the same sPvP bracket, but I think its not achieving its intent. Glory rank isn’t any kind of indicator of skill. I’m in the “deer” league right now, and really I belong in “rabbit” still, and probably forever.

I would like to think that Guild Wars 2 was designed for people of all skill levels to enjoy all aspects of the game, but I don’t see how myself, or other terribles are supposed to continue spvping with the rank system as it stands. There has to be a place for us.
