Ranked AoS feels terrible (And PvP to an extent)

-The amount of Elo you gain or lose is entirely RNG

-V doesn't work in KD/Stiff. And if a zerker bug abuses grab you will end up back in his arms when it runs out (Screenshotting during animation)

-Addons aren't normalized so if you end up with someone wearing ONLY PvE damage and crit rate addons (I guess he didn't know they don't stack) you just lose

-Slow meta feels awful to play against on some classes and indirecly makes other classes better

-Muting someone who is trolling in voice chat works about 30% of the time and you can still hear it between rounds

-AoE Damage circles exist to make 1v3 or 2v3 possible if someone gets picked early, but the damage you take is so inconsistent you can't reliably play around it

-Succession Drakania is still in the game

-Some classes entirely unplayable in AoS because they are balanced around having high gear

-Map markers for enemies can get bugged and disappear mid-match so you can't reliably see where people are.

That's everything off the top of my head. My only suggestions regarding PvP balance in general are:
V should work during any CC and immediately break from Zerker grab instead of this laggy desync garbage

Slows should honestly be removed from the game. They are not fun to play against, and I don't think too many people would complain. It would also open up other buffs on some skills. It feels like when they don't know what else to add to a skill they just slap a slow on it and call it a day

Any other input is appreciated.

1. Only some classes are good in AOS. If you have strong grab or cc on your class it's good if not .. 

2. Level gap makes a difference. Level 64+ don't need to use accuracy accessories and can overpower with offin...

3. AoS character should be normalized meaning all character automatically lv 62 with maximum SP/all skills maxed out. 

4. Queuing system is bad.. shouldn't stack the same classes, rating criteria should be reviewed ...

5. Tuesday and Thursdays only practice? This is unnecessary we can practice any time... 

6. PvE elements aren't fun. Just make the arena pvp. Healing orbs etc. It's just a gimmick and pretty unwanted by a majority of players ..

7. No purpose for evasion gear options. With the solare gear it's impossible to reach the threshold that evasion set actually works..

8. Play your own game more!

Yeah I meant to write about the evasion issue as well. Using Leebur/Muskan is a trap, and even if you run a turo's belt you stay in the same AP bracket but effectively nullify all of the evasion in one accessory, and that's only if they have evasion crystals in helm.

- get rid of exploding arenas and heal orbs<- to many, I know it's for fun, but it really isn't

- create a Beginner mode, where newbies can learn and also pros can join to teach, this game has way to high skill sealing

- allow practice at all times, ranked time gated isn't problem, but people come chill and practice or do quest in ranked, very counterintuitive

This is not what normalization means, also it's not PA's fault that the players are noob. Climb higher, there most will going to have enough brain to have addons.

Yea the exploding crap is annoying, so I would not miss it if they were removed; healing orbs do not really matter too much to me if they stay or not. Also having practice available all of the time would be very nice, but I think they would like need a dedicated server for it, I'm pretty sure that's why they have the practice and ranked days alternate.

It does not work in stiff. You might be thinking of stun. Also, it isn't a bug -- it is intended but it is a relic of the old infinite CC system. It should be changed for sure

Why do people calling "Random matching" Ranked ? Is that Rank of your luck to get proper team mates who know how to play class and (oh god) they can talk ?

Because ranked supposed to represent your skill, but current only represent your luck,  you might be the best, but if random say you belong to trash tier, you gonna be dropped to a level where you can 1 vs 5. Exactly same situation often happens, when trash tier players on top, because every single match they had was won on coin flip matching.
