Character based Ranked mode and/or Rivals 1 Ranked mode#307

I’m back, once again to ask the dev team to please reconsider this. I simply want to do ranked with each character. It’s just a more fun experience to be able to grind the highest rank with each character.

I think rivals 1’s ranked mode was an elegant solution. You cannot counterpick to a character of higher rank. It’s just such a great middle ground. Just have each character have their own placement matches instead of deafulting to bronze like in r1.

Yes please!

This is my top most requested feature for game.

A lot of players have been circumventing this by creating a Steam Family with their own alt accounts.

I imagine it’s a lot of work on the frontend+backend to implement per-character MMR. As a very heavy Ranked player I think it would be a phenomenal addition so I don’t have to go spin up an alt to see where my secondaries land. Also it’d be fun for content-creation reasons.

This has been nearly uninamous from every player I’ve talked to. I’m fairly certain the number of players who would play more Ranked with this feature would outnumber those who want counterpicking (with a higher MMR character).

I urge the dev team to reconsider/prioritize this.
