With a month left in the season, the last person to be above 2400 currently on the ladder is rank 950. Season 1 of BfA there was 3600 people above 2400 when the season ended. Will try to add SL Season 1, but statistics page isn’t loading correctly at the moment.

Shuffle has taken away from the other brackets because how easy it is to just queue up, but nothing has been done to compensate for the loss of activity in regular 2s and 3s. Fighting rank 1s at 2k mmr is frustrating. A lot of people have been vocal outside of the forums about this issue as well, nothing has seem to be done besides the 20 mmr a week.

Is anything being done about this before the season ends?

The team has continued to watch this topic throughout Season 1. An additional bump in the weekly inflation rate was done recently and we continue to monitor the impact of this.

For Season 2, additional changes are being investigated to reduce the disparity in general ratings between Solo Shuffle and the other brackets.
