ShooshMight be wrong but isn't this the reason elo was removed? People with high elo were getting picked only and newcomers or those with low elo because bad or just got picked on the wrong team could rarely ever play unless they were known etc. This might just create the same issue in that only red names and orange are picked. Although I guess people playing in higher divisions is more accurate of skill level than pug elo.
yeah but your pugchamp wins and losses have nothing to do with it. It's just letting people know what div you are. It's not a direct display of pug "skill", you're not gonna lose your ESEA-IM/ETF2L-High rank because you lost 5 pugs in a row or whatever
