Arena title cutoffs aren't counting teams below 1k

Hey everyone,

I’m posting this here in hopes for more people to see it.

Currently, the title cutoff API for arena is completely ignoring all teams below 1000. In TBC, in order to be eligible for titles you must simply play a total of 10 games. That’s it.

As it stands, if the current API isn’t fixed, there will be -significantly- less teams getting titles then there should be, especially for infernal gladiator & gladiator titles.

This is easily seen using a website that tracks the API such as https://check-tbc.fr/cutoffs

The leaderboard API itself only lists the top 5k teams, probably for space reasons. If you go under the 5v5 leaderboard, you can see rank 4012 is the lowest team that is above 1000.

.1% of 4012 is ~4, as a result you get only 4 spots for the rank 1 title, which happens to be 2450 at the time of this post. This number is further confirmed by the cutoff API. This is proof that the API is indeed bugged, and needs to be fixed.

The are thousands upon thousands of teams below 1000 rating that should be counted towards title rewards, as that’s how it was during the original TBC. Starting at 0 rating has no effect on this. A brand new team that loses 10 games and remains at 0 rating should still be counted towards the total pool of players.

Thank you for reading! Please fix this before season ends!!!

bump for at least some blue lines of text saying its “working as intended” or give us the in game title cutoff billboards before Phase 2.

Your arena community would like to know, S1 has been bad enough with the horde Qs + teams not breaking 1500 prompting an increase in points per week. Participation has been low and things like this new MMR and these types of issues are part of the public perception of it. Please address us.

Thanks for the bump, I nearly forgot about this bug post thread.

This still hasn’t been addressed and teams under 1000 still are not being reflected in the cutoff API.

Please fix this blizzard! In OG TBC all teams with 10 games played were counted in the total pool for titles. All secondary requirements such as games played &% of games played are secondary requirements for the individual player and aren’t a apart of the total pool.

Please blues, I beg of you!!!
