just removing key depletion is simple easy to do and would be much more fun for the majority of the player the only one who are against that are try hard premade group that dont want other poeple on the leaderboard
Yes, I am very aware of this. The problem is, if there is no deplete you would have even more IO inflation. It would only exacerbate what you’re complaining about.
Think of it this way, everyone always has the max level key they can get. Lower & Mid keys would vanish completely. You would have even more key holders only taking meta. Key deplete being a thing is not the core problem here. Would it help in the short term? Maybe. Would it at least give ppl practice keys to be actually a thing? Maybe. In the end, you will still be waiting in que hopeful to be picked. This bottle neck is the lack of tanks and healers. Until they make those roles more enjoyable, the bottleneck remains.

The other thing is that key depletion keeps the top end of mythic+ in check and helps avoid title level keys being the domain of premade only players who have the ability to invest vast amounts of time into optimising individual strategies or running back extremely hard pulls multiple times.
Right now title range keys are still just about puggable, but without depletion the key range needed rises out of what’s possible without consistency and extreme coordination built over multiple weeks / months.
