"this suggestion just seems like you pouting because top players aren't enslaved to play ranked with you whenever you command them to."
what? wdym?

The problem atm is that there are a lot of gold players but these players aren't playing in the Gold+ server/ these players are "contented" with their rank so they don't play.

This would be a disadvantage for Gold+ players who want to claim a spot in the top 3.

If these competitive players want to claim a spot in the rank 3, they should be worthy to defend their position as a top-tier player.
