Hi everyone,
I know this has been spoken many, many times here, but hear me out.
I have been thinking about the current Ranked Roles system. Right now, the system forces you to play a role that you are not familiar with.
A player forced into a role they never played is ruining the games. We all know the pain of having a pure support player (me) getting mid and getting rekted within minutes. Well, no one forces Puppey to play mid, why am I being forced to play mid then?
Keep the "Select All Roles" system exactly the same (4 tokens for a win, 2 for a loss). But, Valve could add a secondary option:
- If you select both Support roles (Pos 4 and Pos 5), you earn 2 tokens for a win, and 1 token for a loss.
- If you select all three Core roles (Pos 1, 2, and 3), you also earn 2 tokens for a win, and 1 token for a loss.
This way, you can force core players to play less desirable core role and force sup players to play less desirable sup role.
