I'm sure that all reasonable people would agree that WR leagues are a joke. Pixonic forces Champions, Masters and Experts to battle together. This is not league play, it's just a hot mess. Something has to change.
**My suggestion: **
Champions battle in the Champion league... period. If they dip below the Trophies required for Champion league then they lose that title and all progress toward badges, rewards, etc. stops immediately.
But, most importantly, they remain in the Champion league. They are forced to battle Champions to regain the title and associated benefits/rewards. BTW, this would be the only way a player from a lower league could ever ne forced to battle in a higher league.
***This one (simple?) fix addresses myriad complaints with leagues.
⦿ Tankers that dip to lower leagues to increase their rewards.
⦿ Self destructs that create unbalanced teams from the start.
⦿ All of those stunningly lopsided battles.
⦿ That rotating door transitioning between leagues.
...Are there other benefits I didn't think of?
Some would say that assembling two full teams of players in the same league might take forever. I disagree, but, in the rare case that it takes 20-45 seconds or so there could be a prompt with a "Yes/No" that says "Tired of waiting? Agree to battle outside of my league for this battle". They would then be queued for the next battle, regardless of the league. *This would not be an option for players in the penalty zone mentioned above. *
Additionally, I think that players should not be able to self destruct in the first two minutes or so of any battle. I mean, what's the downside? You chose the wrong bot for the map? Your fault. Suck it up. This limit alone would be a very welcomed change.
Blow this up. Upvote it, thumbs up it, 100 it, comment. All constructive criticism is welcomed.
