KaW War Elo System?

Discussion in 'Ideas + Feature Requests' started by Seth, Feb 16, 2015.

  1. So, a lot of games like League of Legends or Counter Strike use a competitive matchmaking system, and you get a rank after so many matches played, and then you get paired with people around your rank.

    Now, because not many people actually war, I don't think the rank matching should be implemented, but I want to see ranks, and have a visual addon to profiles that displays your rank.

    The higher your rank, the flashier your rank emblem would be.

    How would it work?



    Well, your rank would be determined by your war performance. These factors include:
    • Win/Loss
    • Plunder
    • Self Knock Out - Knockout ratio.
      - More SKO is good :)
    • Successful actions.

    The order of importance goes from top to bottom.

    Win a game, and you would get +5 points to your Elo score. Top 5 plunder? +3. If you sko, you get 1 points added. And if you have an exceptional amount of successful actions, you'll get a couple points. After 7 wars, you get your rank. And rank is determined by points.

    If you want to know more, research Elo systems.



    Yes, there's already prestige for clans that do primal/round wars, which is similar to this idea, but this would be for individual profiles so that people who do indi wars get recognized too.

    Thoughts?

  2. But what would determine their rank? Win/Loss ratio? They could just have a good clan carry them. Successful Actions? Well they might be able to just scout bomb. SKO-KO? They may just purposely wait to sko.

  3. I would support this (It's a very good idea)...
    But, as Narwhal says, it would be difficult to rank people in terms of their general war strength/skill.

  5. True but you have to be fast to get many actions and Kos. You have to know what % spies and troops to SKO at and become skilled at skoing then.

    Anyway, support to op's idea

  6. And my pitch to the scoring system isn't set in stone.

    It's would have to be adaptive code that compares your performance between wars. Do good and you get higher Elo, start doing bad and your Elo goes down.

  7. Let's say a reward system,

    ~KO Rewards~

    100 - 1 xtal

    500 - 1 horn of the calydor

    1000 - a special banner

    ~Successful Actions~

    1000 - 2 Xtals

    5000 - 1 seal of the damned

    10000 - 3 gold Crux chests

  9. League doesnt use Elo system. Its a different type of MMR.

  10. I've heard it uses the Elo system. Soory. But same point.

  11. Why not? It would encourage warring

  12. That isn't related to OP, it's about war ranking. Not war achievements.
