I think many people can agree that Nock’s ranking system is very broken. That’s why I think the ranking system should be changed a little bit. What I have in mind is, instead of ranks having only 3 divisions there should be tiers as well. For example “gold III tier IV” somewhere to rocket leagues ranking system style, and when you rank up different colors come out from your left and right and warp into your new rank.
Your rank should reset every season, but instead of starting from 0 again you will have to win a certain amount of games to get your previous rank back. There are two ranks I feel like should be added, one should be the lowest rank and one will be the new highest. Starting with the new lowest rank, LIGHT should be the new lowest rank below bronze and above floor. Now with the new highest rank… CORE for the new highest rank. I feel like these new ranks fit with the Nock ecosystem very well, especially Core. Core will be one division only, making obsidian 3 divisions. Light will be 3 divisions like the rest of the ranks.
A balanced ranking system like this would work very efficiently in a large community but Nock doesn’t have a large community which means this should be a future update. This would work very well if Nock went free to play. That’s all I have to suggest for now…
