I think all high ranks (gold and diamond leagues) should be reset when the game gets released globally.

I'm currently at rank 40 (and climbing steadily). At least every other game is against some poor opponent in the single digit ranks, with little experience and almost no premium cards. Some of them concede instantly when they see my rank. This means I didn't earn my rank by beating my higher ranked peers, I mostly got there by beating up on newbies. The same goes for everyone else at high ranks. Two of the diamond league players I faced were clearly not very skilled, they made several "bronze/silver league level" mistakes. They don't deserve to be at that rank, and I haven't proven myself yet either.

So I think the ranks should be at least partially reset. Demote everyone higher up down to silver league, and let them fight their way up again once the player base is large enough that you only get matched up against players at similar rank.

As a consolation prize, you could get gem rewards as usual for (re-)ranking up.

Counting down to nerd rage explosion, 3, 2, 1 ... :) How about instead that give you the option to reset your rank at will instead? That way people like you can feel like you got your rank legit. I don't want my rank reset.... I went through A LOT of internet problems and losses to get to Gold League.

EDIT: And maybe if you reset your rank you get a massive gem reward or something. The problem is, after resetting your rank would not depict your progress correctly. It would be misleading for an Rank 1 newbie to encouter an Rank 1 who just reset from the diamond league, then expect an fair fight.

I think there should be an prestige system alongside the reset, which indicates to others that you have gone to diamond league and back, so they can expect an tough fight. Also the ranked match system should treat you as Rank 50 if you have atleast 1 prestige so it continues to try to pair you up with high ranks

I think the 500 diamonds recieved upon reaching diamond is pretty massive in itself, alongside the ability to reset which lets you get diamonds from ranking again I actually thought that, but didn't bother to mention it since IDK how they would do it.
