No Riot, we don't want to eat our vegetables!

Through the discussion on the DQ Roundtable, that I am sure everyone has seen by now, the best analogy I can make is this.

It is as if we are trying to be convinced that DQ is all around better for us as a community. DQ is less toxic, is more team oriented, and all around healthier for you, just like broccoli!! (Yes, broccoli is team oriented...) But here is the problem, it is that with all of the pros you put in place, the most glaring con remains; it leaves a horrible taste in your mouth. You cannot convince somebody to eat their vegetables, if the vegetables are fucking horrible, but are healthier than what you were eating before.

Another problem I see, is that while league is in fact a team game, the ladder is not separated by teams But by individuals!! This means that a plethora of people who got to where they are on the ladder, did not do so because they are better than the combined skill of the people they defeated to get there. It means that they queued with enough people who could carry them there. Now don't get me wrong, plenty of people above D1 totally deserve it. The problem is that when there are loads of people that could never get there with the 'oldie but goodie' system, then something isn't right. Those are just some thoughts of mine. What do you guys think?
