The Bad Joke that is the Ranking System

During this month, I've played a member that is part of the current top 20 players 4 times.

This is not what competition looks like.

Looking at the top 100 players, I only find another handfull of people who I have played against maybe 10 times at most.

    You're one of the best players. So a good ranking system would be putting you against people who are also the best players. Most games I play with good ranking systems know who the top 100 players are and mostly match them against each other.

    Yup, I really have no idea how I don't find them in game.

    So, your first complaint isn't that you fought another player that is top 20 so many times?

    No, I'm complaining that I rarely play against these players.

    Funny enough, I finally played against one and got smacked. I think that going first versus going second was a major factor regarding getting smacked, but overall, my skills are seriously held back since I don't play against highly ranked players enough.

    Ah. That's a shame. You guys should really be going against each other when possible.

    I am not even ranked and I got paired against someone who is in top 50 three times in a row... stopped playing ToT PvP altogether after that. I have observed that if I go against these top ranked players, the rng is so biased toward them that within the first 5 rounds, they are already way ahead in either gold or power cards and this lead never stops as cards keep falling in their favor continuously.
