Current Gladiator

Question for the forum boys

Do you guys like gladiator being 2400 +50 wins? Or would you like to see the return of % titles?
Or maybe increase gladiator to 2600 and no wins?

idk I just wanna hear what you guys think.

I think they should lower it to 2100/1800 for this season since it’ll be the shortest season and deflation has never been worse imo

Considering how many people will be playing this trash expac come September 26th when Wrath launches .5% will be 2 people getting Glad and congrats to them!

%based to keep people qing 100%. Ground mount with elite title would keep people happy and alts shouldn’t hoard r1 slots.

i miss % glad hard. there needed to be something between duelist and gladiator for a long time, but what they replaced glad with has ended up being well below what old duelist was in a lot of seasons, while still sometimes being more networking to get.

as it is now, gladiator is a pretty well spaced followup to duelist, but then there’s absolutely nothing for 600-1000 points for most of most seasons. i’d like something added back at 0.5% for end of seas, if for no other reason than the end of season rush being a really fun time that i miss participating in

% based glad definitely.

I have no reason to actually queue before the last month of the season and then it’s just about tagging 50 wins

3s aren’t fun enough to incentivize me and the other brackets are even worse

% glad and some progression before it would be nice, even if I’m not good enough to achieve glad

My opinion on this is that 2400 and 50 wins is fine if the seasons are kept short (15-20 weeks)

Keep gladiator how it is, add something new between glad and r1 for .5%

Like others have said, biggest issue is another reward to keep people playing. Either bring back % glad and add a different reward to 2400 or vice versa.

Additionally same class alts should not take up r1 spots. Last season had 30-40 spots taken by same class alts. That kills the incentive for a lot of people to try for r1.

Put the art team to work every season to have a .5% only armor set for each class or if thats too much

Just a weapon, a very nice weapon transmog per season for each class.

Controversial but maybe have a token to buy a previous seasons elite set at .5% and X wins.

plenty of ideas

so 2400 +50 is fine but there should be an additional incentive reward between that and R1

I think making rewards that only .5% of the player base can receive is a waste of time and effort.

Make titles whatever you want to make them but mog/mounts and all that jazz should be somewhat obtainable.

No, 0.5% isn’t “somewhat obtainable”.

I’d say 1800 for the mog, 2100 for the enchant and 2400 for the mount is fair. Make the title a 0.5% thing for you to flex with.

To clarify im saying

1800 for the mog, 2100 for the enchant, 2400 +50 for title/mount. R1 has its own title obviously/reward

for .5% and x50 wins would grant a very specific custom armor set each season OR a single class weapon transmog. Heck it could just be a recolor of the current season/tier with its own color if blizz lazy

OR just have it grant a token to buy a previous seasons elite set.

Just an extra tidbit to push and get better basically. Since most stop at 2400 +50 and have no aspirations of r1

Sounds like a good plan. Send it

Percentage based. It used to be top 600-700 players getting Gladiator. Now it’s every rival and their mother getting the title.

Should just keep it 24 + 50. Human beings are risk/reward driven. Most current glads already despise the grind, making it where people would have to grind all season to potentially walk away empty-handed would probably cost more activity than it creates.

% based was fine when this game actually had a healthy arena population, now it does not

% based got old having to q last day if you were near cutoff and sniping/q dodging etc similar to whatsome folks have to do for r1 currently. Don’t miss it. Like being able to complete glad + 50 wins early season and mess around on alts or play other games for the rest of the year

make the gladiator achieve/fos/seasonal title 2400

make the mount a separate fos (already is) and put it at .5%

idk just put anything at .5%
the incentive to play being completely removed between 2400 and 3400 is stupid

you can’t even collect mounts on alts because accountwide everything
