Koto.1824 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Mkay, so I was queueing in unranked with a dps scrapper, and obviously I was playing just for fun. Then someone on my team was raging about a warrior 1v1ing, and called him a toxic asshole even though he didn't say anything in chat. I told him to calm down. Then after the match, the player messaged me saying that he plays unranked to win, and to go to custom arenas if you're bad or want to test builds. He then blocked me cause I have 10k AP, and apparently, AP determines if you suck at PvP or not. Anyways, this brings up the question: Do you play unranked for the sole purpose of trying to win, or just for casual play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcaedus.7290 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Definitely casual play. I usually play unranked if I want to queue up with friends/guildies, or want to test builds. You can't really test a build in a duel arena unless you're specifically testing for duel potential and a non-dueling custom arena game will have too many variables to test your build reliably imo.

Azure The Heartless.3261 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Unranked is specifically to test builds/comps. That guy needs to remove the tree branch from his rear and go to ranked if he wants to play to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrulisse.1246 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I use unranked to try out crazy stuff and blow off steam by playing goofy builds. It's fun, I'll never understand people who tryhard in Unranked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ildrid Ildhjertet.2489 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I tried testing builds in unranked, figured the matchmaking is non-existant there so there's no point testing builds against opponents 20 divisions above me in skill. So now I only test builds in ranked (during season) because at least I get pips towards my byzanthium chests that way, regardless of win or loss. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROMANG.1903 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Unranked is to test stuff, but you should _still_ be trying to win. The warrior you describe who was doing 1v1, could go on a 1v1 arena. There are plenty of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
