Let's check why not. Do you have a username of a good player you think should have been in the top 3 list.
I can answer that.
Because 1 month rat races to farm low level players isn't a measurement of who is the best. In real e-sports, good players play good players, great players only play great players, and pro players only play pro players. I sure as hell cant play Magnus Carlsen in chess for a ranked game.
Matchmaking Hampa. Matchmaking, series, and time. Toribash is too fast for one match to decide a better player, too little for you to pool the best talent pool over only one month, and currently has no system to pair people of equal skill.
Make a matchmaking system, only allow people to play each other of similar ELO (like + or - 10 to 15), make them compete in a series of matches like best of 5, keep the competition RANDOM and among ONLY highly competitive mods, and make the season 6 months, not 1.
You'll see guys like:
FistofLife, Killer3366, Imapirate, TIcux, Mwah, Rai, Cold, iTemp, TIcux, Shockey, Shmevin, iRookie, Cowmeat, Moop, Moonshake, Diamond, and other extremely great well balanced players rise to the top. And ranks will mean something.
You're not the best player for beating some random 6th Dan who's never dueled, in your best mod, whenever you want. Just picking your opponent and picking your mod. You're the best player when you could get any of those guys listed, in not one particular mod, but instead ErthTk OR Judofrac OR lenshu3ng OR aikidobigdojo, and hang around a 3-2 score.
If you beat Killer3366 in a 3-1 in lenshu3ng, you deserve a lot more respect than going 45-3 against nobodies in judo.

^ This.
It doesnt have to be matchmaking (even tho that would be optimal), even elo restricted servers are a step up. But as it currently stands, the elo system isnt viable unless you want to measure who plays the most. The public system is almost like clan ranks are atm, and you can see from CL how accurate they really were in the end. Again, this is improvement to the last system, but still far from optimal.
To me elo farming is fine, as long as in the end, there is a tournament that actually matters, and shows who is the best.

If you want more, I can name.
But I dont think naming great players that evryone know are good means anything or is an argument towards anything?
+ Irookie, Shmevin, Shockey, Snook, Inoobbruh, imapirtae, itemp(fukthisguythou).. etc list, i think interesting thing would be if hampa can name just 1 good player.

Hello
Just go look at all the ranked lobbys, %90 of the players in there are terrible at the game. I played 1 day of this ranked mode and went like 26-4. Just so easy its dumb, not just for me but for almost all players with some level of understanding.

This is the problem that needs to be adressed. By either matchmaking or elo restricted rooms.
Im something like 90W-19L in erthtkv2 right now. and around 5 of the losses were against Moop, its just a testament to how easy it is to farm.
Going something like 10-7 agaisnt moop, fist or any decent TK player is 10x more impressive than getting a 10-> streak in public lobbies.
Im not the only one who can farm like this, there's probably like 10 others who could but just don't. I just like seeing my name in #1, does it make me a better player? hell no.
