I appreciate you sharing your thoughts; but I feel like we need to give the change, and the upcoming change, a little longer to take effect.
Somebody who's rightly proud of their win-rate, and resigned themselves to a particular level, will take a while to come around to the idea of being proud of their level, and resigned to that 50:50 win-rate.
My personal experience, I felt trapped before the change. In Wild I faced optimised bot teams, but when I tried playing in Modern, I couldn't get close to the top of Bronze 1 in order to break out into higher levels.
I get that we're a bit more pay to win now. (Buy a few more BCX, unlock that next ability, and win a few more of those close matches), but previously it felt like pay to lose, where I had a max level card that could only perform at a fraction of the level I'd paid for.
Again, that's just a personal perspective. I completely understand if others feel differently.

Appreciate you chiming in, MC. Always value your insight.
It's a sticky wicket, man. I am not sure what the best solution is (though, as you just read, I have my opinions on what the best solution could look like), and maybe time is the X-factor and we just need to let things pan out, but given all the folks we'd already shed over the course of the bear, it makes it particularly difficult to see those folks that stuck with us now, and all of a sudden, feel completely left out in the cold directly as a result of this update.
We all know Yaba's a bright dude and I trust he'll figure it out. That said, I felt obligated to help gather some feedback and represent, to the best of my abilities, all the voices.
Cheers hombre!
Sticky wicket!
I haven't heard that in a long time!
Allowing players to choose their league for the season completely eliminates the 'being trapped in bronze' situation. I understand he wants to give it time, but damn man, we have to hope there are still players here by then. If you see an iceberg dead ahead, you don't wait to see if you're still headed for it a little later. You correct course asap.
