I just noticed that ones BWR (Blackbox Win Ratio) is affected even if it is the teams first game. As BWR to some extend is the same as Rankeds CR i do think that the first 3-5 games shouldn't count towards BWR to avoid the same creative use of frontloaded teams as we have previously seen in R.

tl;dr : Suggestion: Make the first 3 games of a team not count for BWR or BBR.

The first game does not count towards BWR, the second game onwards do.

Ah my bad. Still - i believe it is 5 games in ranked which seems more fitting.

I like that second game counts, otherwise you would get people playing 4 games to see if they got all the skills they wanted and just retire them to try to get higher BWR.

It used to be that all games would count, but a few people made one off frontloaded star filled teams, so it was adjusted to second game onwards.

IMO, before tweaking this, we should have the proof that such abuses does exist. Cause, IMO, it's better if every game counts.
