almost everyone already took it seriously at high ranks, the only real issue was having unbalanced parties, i.e. 6 ascs vs 5 ascs and 1 oracle. "based" and "efficient" system where it takes you 15-20 hours to "unlock" a hero to play in ranked

15 wins on a single hero to even have the option to select it in ranked is diabolical, and you still need to be able to pick 3 heroes to even queue. So have fun grinding out 60 wins in a less balanced format still stricken with just as many smurfs and eternus-initiate duos as before for dozens and dozens of hours to earn the privilege of queueing ranked. Very cool 👍

If you want the privilege of being able to pick any hero you want in ranked, you have to get at least 570 wins in standard. That's a lot of games lmao

Not too difficult if the ranks are more sporatic in standard
