Players who are playing to win games to get that seasonal vanity item can be punished for raising their ELO too much. This can result in a high ELO rated player having to wait sometimes unreasonably long for another game and when they do find a game it's always against another very high rated player and thus will get the seasonal items much slower than average players. Now, I do think there should be ways to reward winning higher in the ladder with more points towards the seasonal rewards but the suggestion of this thread remains regardless that would be implemented or not. If a player decides they prefer farming PvP wins over being high rated in the ladder, I think they should be allowed to do so with a simple click of a mouse. Currently some players are purposely losing in high ladder which is not only a time consuming way to fix the issue but it also shifts the problem to other high rated players in the ladder, resulting in a non-ending loop. This is why I think it would be fair that a player rated above the starting point ELO (500,00) would be allowed to reset their ELO so they can more easily find ranked games again, so they wouldn't be forced to purposely lose games which is a nightmare for an environment that should be about competition.
