I just played like 20 games in Gold league where every single team was comprised ALL or almost all of level 1 cards. I learned nothing, it wasn't fun in the slightest, i'm probably a worse lazier player for having payed those games. I think the question in all of our minds is: How did they make it to the Gold Level League?
They made it because they're planning and hoping to play other level 1 accounts. And it makes sense the majority of matches in those levels are between level 1 accounts.
ELO ranking is supposed to measure skill and obviously it's broken right now for our system... so there needs to be an addition of a modifier to bring it back to life for steemmonsters.
Maybe we need to add another element into the mix for ELO score. It will require programming by 
THE PROPOSAL
There needs to be a modifier in the ELO equation that takes into account the level of a teams cards.
IF you loose to a level 1 team in a let's say gold or diamond league then it should hurt you really bad in ELO score. I mean you're loosing to a LEVEL 1 team for heaven's sake... why in the world are you in GOLD league! a place where you can use level 8 commons!!
By the same right it's only fair that if a level 1 team beats a team much higher leveled than them then they should get a big boost as well.
Let's see some skill factors implemented into ELO rankings.
It's not a sin to put in modifiers into an ELO system. And it seems that seeing it can solve the biggest complaint right now I think it's probably a really really good idea.
HOW LEVELED UP A TEAM IS
Basically what percentage towards max are each of your cards and then based off of what percentage of mana that card makes up on your team configuration.
Peakmonsters was almost gonna impliment a stat a while back that was gonna show how leveled up each team's cards were and put it onto the battlechain but got distracted by other things.
Players with underpowered cards should LOVE this.
This means if someone beats you with cards inferior to yours they're probaly a better player than you and should earn elo points at a little bit better rate and for heaven sakes if you're loosing to a level 1 line up in gold league that should drop you like a rock. You have no reason to be in there.
We know the ONLY reason your bot made it there... and it had nothing to do with skill. And elo is supposed to rate skill and therefore it's presently BROKEN.
RECAP
- Keep comparing ELO ratings for scoring but add in a modifier that takes into account Level of Team
- How close is your team to the card cap of the League you're in?
- Beating a team close to that level cap makes the ELO modifier reward you more points
- Loosing to a team far from that level cap makes the ELO modifier make you loose even more points.
