Still though you nailed it. The system only seems worse if you look at it in hindsight.

Everyone keeps saying this but it doesn't matter. Any system in which theoretically changing a win to a loss would benefit you is BROKEN. It doesn't matter if you can exploit it. It doesn't matter until it becomes apparent after the fact.

How well you do should be based on how often you win. NOT WHEN YOU WIN.

You keep saying that, but it doesn’t matter. See how easy that is to say?

No one is misunderstanding your point. It’s just not that big of an issue. You will still fundamentally be better off than you would have been previously. That was their only stated goal, and they accomplished it.

Edit: Just to be clear—this doesn’t affect me at all, so I don’t care. I also see your point, and I agree that a flat loss penalty would be a better system for a competitive ranking. I just don’t think it’s a big enough deal to be upset about.
