I am currently Bronze 4, winning about 50% of the time. I feel like I’m a good player, and I’ve spent so many hours on this game, but the people I’m being match made with are so amazing at the game I just can’t compete most of the time.
I am currently level 134 so I’ve spent a decent amount of time on the game I suppose, and I’m definitely not used to spending this much time on a game and still being bottom of the barrel. If half the guys in bronze 4 have mastery 7 with a quarter of a million points, there is no way this game doesn’t have the highest skill floor
As someone who has played for over 13 years: Yes. The skill floor has steadily increased.
Imho a bronze player now would easily be gold back then. Anyone who argues against that should watch some “pro” games from 2010/11 and tell me with a straight face that they knew what they were doing.
