Remove Endorsements from the game it adds nothing and is only annoying.
If anyone knows what it adds to the game please tell me cause i cant think of anything.
Every few matches i drop to lvl 3 just to go back to lvl 4 in 3 matches its so annoying.
Replace it with a permanent xp lvl. One you lvl separately to the bp only through matches but the lvl stays the same from season to season. This would also help against smurf accounts.

I think they could do a lot more with endorsements instead of getting rid of them. Currently you only get 1k exp per week for every level of endorsement you have.
(as an option you can check on settings), I would love to see matchmaking taking endorsment level into account when matching players, So im not stuck with new players, game leavers/quitters, and new accounts from cheaters/bots/smurfs, or people who mouth off too much (because they are almost all level 1 and 2 endorsement).
I would gladly wait longer for a match if they could match me with people who have level 3 thru 5 endorsment (4 and 5 preferred), since i know they likely wont quit, and have been around long enough to both understand the game, as well as a nice demeanor.

The decay rate is probably too severe and yeah, it needs a reward rework. But it’s not a very obtrusive mechanic, so I don’t find it annoying at all in general, but if you’re regularly stuck at a transition point where you frequently rise and fall, I can see how that would get obnoxious. I wouldn’t mind them changing the endorse count from 2 to anyone to 2 for your team and 1 for the enemy.
But my barely noticeable XP given to me for my battlepass! /s
(It was better when it was your Endorsement level of lootboxes. e_e)

Im at 3-4 since season 2 every time i get to 4 i soon get awful matches where no one endorses and drop down to 3 then i get good matches where i get like 3 endorsements in 1 match and am back to 4 in no time.
I didnt even know the rewards are weekly i only get the popup every few weeks randomly.
It normally coincides with being reported, happens a lot to me too. I’ll be four for a few games and then someone’ll complain about me and I’ll “magically” drop down to three after the match.
I feel like Blizzard needs to start punishing people for false reports, too many out there use it as little more than a button to vent their frustrations.

Somehow I managed to hit Level 5 and have been able to maintain it for I think a couple months now. Probably because I very heavily play support, and mostly quick play, which seems to be easy for getting consistent endorsements from what I’ve seen.
5000 XP/week is pretty pitiful, considering I’ll easily complete battle passes regardless of that reward chunk. In fact I already have this season.
Reward structure across the game is one of the two biggest problems right now IMO, along with matchmaking quality. Consistent, relatively tangible rewards is one of the best ways to keep players, especially casuals, grinding the game. A Battle Pass alone just does not provide enough engagement.

I also mainly play support and qp but never got over 4 and never saw anyone with 5.
I didnt even notice that existed, i always thought thats something you get every few weeks. But yeah 5k is nothing that are like 3 vs ai matches during double xp.
I normally complete the bp in 3 weeks and after there is not much reason to play unless you are insane like me and go for lvl 200.
