100% agree OP, my least favorite thing about the game so far is ranked battle, I hate not being in control and basically watching my team fail when i know i can be doing better

I can understand why they wouldnt allow you to choose skills because the other player isnt actively fighting you like they would be if you were playing arena mode still if they are gonna do a rankings type deal they should have just made arena the ranking mode and made ranked arena battle instead of a totally different mode

Kinda how like league of legends has normal queue and ranked queue...their should be a ranked queue instead of the current ranked battle system we have now
