As a casual I tend to have a few weeks where ill ladder, and then a couple of months where I won't play. After watching some ESPORTS I'll get in the mood again, but any muscle memory and awareness of how not to be completely clumsy has generally faded by then. I know I would rather have a fresh slate when I come back after being afk just so that the first few games I play aren't all roflstomps. I understand that in time any skill lost can come back, but in regards to the idea of trying to keep casuals engaged, it's really hard to get back into the game when you just feel like you have no chance of winning when you sit down.

Your points are legitimate, that's what unranked is for though - the leave league button really doesn't do anything except offer a chance for people to abuse the system by skipping the 'uncertainty' period to get promoted. It has no bearing on your MMR, it just is like the start of a new season where after a game it will place you immediately upon your current MMR. | ||

Having a limited number of smurfs is still better than giving players the ability completely reset their skill rating. It's not about resetting their skill rating it's about resetting their record and their points. | ||

Some are obviously a bit trickier, but I think if they just take this list and work on it for a day most of it will be fixed. However, I do doubt that they will actually do this :p. This is my point, if people think this whole list will be fixed by HOTS release they are not thinking in Blizzard Time (tm). I think Blizzard will probably implement all of these suggestions (and I bet nearly all were suggested internally already) but it will take forever. | ||

While most of these things would take a very short time to fix, Blizzard is still a company, every single change must go through discussion, decisions, work distribution, implementation, testing, bug fixing, more testing and finally release. Most people think the process is just implementation and then release, which is plain wrong. It does take a long time for a company to change something due to this process. With this being said, it does take blizzard quite a while longer than it should, to implement a change. | ||

We are right smack in the middle of the QA part. I mean if the OP was made for WOL during 2011, then it would be really hard for Blizzard to change things. But since we are in the BETA phase, I hope these type of changes are in the "fixable before release" domain. | ||

There is one thing I'd like to address though: Allow more colors instead of just red and blue for ladder play. Seeing only red and blue for 1v1 games is getting to be an eyesore. Colors should be randomly assigned out of the first 8, like in WC3. Accessibility should be an important feature. If nothing else, introduce a color-blind mode that lets people define what colors they want to see when they turn on friendly colors. The current red and green is pretty atrocious if you are red/green colorblind - green and blue or blue and yellow etc would work much better and should be an opiton. | ||

Being able to fully customise your UI would be great though. | ||
