CQC Matchmaking and ranking. Why not to take Blizzard's SC2 ladder scheme???

I don't like current combat ranking at all. Bad or good skills... you'll finally reach Elite rank with 100% probability! And this is like death!.. )

So... Let's devide players by skill. Nine skills - nine divisions. At the start a few test battles with players from different divisions, then you'll be assigned to a division matched by your skill. Elite in one hour - why not if your skill is actually elite!? And on the contrary... lossing skill means loosing rank!

heh and you're Elite in CQC ( if you're talking about that)?.. Of course you have 100% probability to getting Elite but how much time it takes? I play the CQC since ED: Horizons release and i play it quite periodically (2-3 hours per day). Now i'm rank Legend and still i have long way to get Elite rank. I think, this is enough price for getting Elite...

My rank is Semi-professional. And this is where I should stay (I play a few hours in a week). Really! I don't want to be "Elite" and connot compete with real masters of CQC...
And... it is stupid to wait months for Elite if your skill is already elite! May be it's your case! ))

This is not stupid. Thanks this there are not 70% Elite pilots but only little percent ( 0,5 -1%) of them and this is for me more honored than any division or something like that.

The Elite series has always been about persistence/survival being what gets you to Elite. Now we have flawless always-on free escape pods the ranking perhaps should be done differently - but assessment of skill is rather difficult to do automatically.

There is apparently a hidden MMR-style ladder in Arena, but what little information has been revealed about it suggests it's rather imperfect and you can get a ridiculous rank in it by only choosing to start or finish matches you know you can win (while being at a skill level where I can beat them)

On the other hand, everyone who plays a lot probably knows (by name) who most of the really good pilots are and who all the practically invincible pilots are, in the same way that national and international champions of present-day sports are just known to people who compete. There's no need some sort of automated structure to track that.

Or you can just take a peek at kill/death ratio :) Anyways there are some names whom I see and know that no victories will be awarded for me :D But sometimes I stay to observe techniques which I will use when I grow up :)
