Ever since BG matchmaking only allows for random game type, it makes no sense to have separate game type leaderboards.
Do you think it makes more sense to combine into one leaderboard that displays cumulative medal score?

✭✭✭✭✭I think they should redo the leaderboard system entirely. It has very little to do with actual success in a BG since the leaderboard only tracks cumulative score across the entire week. If you play a bunch of BGs, you'll be ranked highly on the board, even if you werent winning all your matches.
Add this to the fact that the medal system that the leaderboard tracks is poorly designed at best. You can easily get double the medal score of the next "best" person in the lobby and still be on the team that comes in last place - that shouldn't happen. I've even been on teams where the entire cumulative score on my team was far above the team that won the match. Score should be tied to the game type more. You should not be able to get first place without also having the highest medal score - redesign what actions give medal score.
But yes, I do agree that if we can't have split queues, we shouldn't have a split leaderboard. Referring to point one - if you have bad RNG and never get put into a DM, you won't be very high on the DM board because you won't have played as many games.Edited by CameraBeardThePirate on 6 December 2023 14:273 -
Brakkish✭✭✭✭All I do is BGs. I haven't looked at leaderboards in years.
It's only a summary of the players who spend the most time in game, not necessarily the greatest level of skill.
Until it's a reflection of actual skill, not time spent - I have zero interest in it.CP2802 +8100 hrs spent in BGs. US PS5 - 10 PVP Tanks - toons named variations of "Combat Medic" I like long walks on the beach. What's PVE? https://www.youtube.com/brakkish1 -

If you're someone who plays a lot I'm sure you'd agree it would be nice to at least get some loot every week.
