For four years, we had to deal with the “tower”. Even if it functioned properly all the time, which it frequently didn’t, it was a miserable experience. They’ve now got a standard matchmaking and ranking system, which makes it so much easier to keep playing this game that has largely always been excellent once you actually got into a match. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I haven’t played quite so much for the past year, because having to deal with the tower was quite a deterrent, but I’d still say I have a pretty good understanding of the game, its systems, and how to turn you into a better player. At one point, on the unofficial ranking sites that are now suddenly obsolete, I climbed as high as 1700 Elo as Goldlewis.
