  &quot;Casual players are gonna roll in and beat high level players&quot;<br><br>-motto of casual players who think they&apos;re high level players.

  I think the tower is ingenious, it makes ranking something tangible. It’s not saying, “I’m bronze 2” it’s being an anime protagonist climbing a tower to fight gods. It’s fucking great

  My big reason, Ranked feels delightfully more casual than casual in other games. &nbsp;I get to have a blast playing with others my skill level without the damn pressure to maintain or raise a score.

  One other point: &quot;New&quot; players does not strictly mean &quot;casual&quot; players. By attracting a larger audience, you&apos;re going to bring in a certain subset of the population who really will strive (heh) to fully learn the complex systems and underlying mechanics to a much higher degree. Not every pro in the FGC was magically created with the release of Street Fighter 2 and never again, appealing to a wide population is how you create the scene for hardcore and professional tier players in the first place.

  The Heaven matchmaking sounds like a blessing because I hate fighting for a bit, then someone level &nbsp;8000 ends my career 😭😭

  Ya know yesterday I saw a brave soul from floor 4 come up to floor 10 and they fought me for like 4 games before leaving and while they didn&apos;t get close to winning I noticed that they were slowly learning and picking up on things

  Guilty Gear&apos;s strength is that it doesn&apos;t have any &quot;bad&quot; or &quot;boring&quot; characters. &nbsp;Every playable character is at the VERY LEAST interesting in some way.

  One thing that is important to talk about, when a fighting game dev talks about &quot;a new audience&quot; and &quot;new players&quot;, it does include casuals, but it doesn&apos;t mean only casuals, it also includes people who play other fighting games but don&apos;t play their game.
