Whilst I agree with this in the most part, it means that every single settings, whether it be fixed caps, prog 70, fixed or prog world dom, it'd mean they'd all need their own leaderboard if you get what I mean

That is sorta correct. I'd argue its true, but they did separate out FFA and 1v1. And I'd argue 3 player risk is very different from 6 player so they should all have their own leaderboard.

So they have sorta proven they will separate leaderboards even if its not perfect.

Leaderboards based on individual settings has been suggested many times in here and honestly makes a lot of sense. I doubt it ever happens though.

You could become #1 in reverse world 5 player 120s progressive caps with unstable portals and blizzards in no time!

lol. I think the best idea I have heard so far is having a leaderboard based on a few different settings (classic fixed, EU adv prog caps, and a rotating between seasons setting choice)

So not EVERYTHING would have a leaderboard

You could have a structure of leaderboards. Keep the current FFA leaderboard as the main one. But then add deeper and deeper levels for all kinds of settings. First level would be fixed and prog. Next split these up by game mode. Also make game mode leaderboards irrespective of fixed / prog, eg capitals only and such. It would be quite the convoluted menu but I would personally enjoy it. It should be trivial to implement the functionality. Assuming they have logs (or at least results) of all games ever played they could calculate this easily.
