Last season our team was R1 in 5v5 for pretty much the entire season, we never got to play against any high rated team. Any team over 1900 would instantly quit after 1 game in order to not lose rating and gain maximum arena points. Competitive 5v5 would require an entire realm pool worth of teams like on retail where it's impossible to predict who you play against. I definitively do not want there to be titles for 5v5, it would only reduce activity in 2v2/3v3.
The overall PvP experience could be greatly improved if players in arena would simply display as being in the major city they queued from and /who or friend list would never show people in any arena. The website armory should also be delayed by at least an hour before updating. Rated solo queue arena would also be an amazing addition.
