Helping with Quick Battles

One thing that's really annoying to me about Quick battles is, you can play for hours to get to a rank (say, 2-10), but then if you stop playing for a bit you lose that rank easily by the ends of the night. I think it would be very helpful to have a clause of "once you reach a certain rank, you will be prized as if you were that rank even if your rank decreases later".

With this, multiple people could receive 1st prize, but I don't think that's such a bad thing necessarily. Or if it is, they could limit the top "permanent" rank to 51-150 (the lowest rank that receives a guaranteed rare). This way the top 50 still have to keep playing it out, but the general players can have a goal - to simply reach 150 or better at some point - to get a rare card for that round.

I think this would significantly help the players that can't afford the time required to grind for hours in a day.

    Maybe something similar to the progression rewards in events could be used so there would be a reason to play QB even if you can't grind to the higher ranks.

    Right. There just needs to be some kind of permanent goal, so that I don't feel like I have to go check on my score in an hour to make sure no one passes me, just so that I can get a halfway decent reward.

    Shorter QB would be better I think
    Imagine starting a QB and finding that it ends in an hour or 2 and there are only a few hundred entered and top score is below 20, I had this happen once and it has been the only time I have enjoyed the monotonous boredom of playing against the same decks over and over in QB, I felt like I was in a dash to the finish but I had a chance and it was my only top 50.
    I don't have the time to grind QB for hours on end, I find playing against the same opponents and the same decks boring but when the finish line and the top places are in arms reach the challenge becomes something that it normally is not, enjoyable
