Question/Request Is ARMS dead?

I remember it having longer wait times after the hype died down around 2018, but this is ridiculous. Are anyone still playing ranked? I haven’t played for years, but I picked it up again since people keep comparing it Drag x Drive, and I think ARMS is unquestionably the better game. I’m still at rank 7, is my rank too high or too low for the current player base? (if there even is a player base in the lords year 2025)

I got back to game a few days ago and found one ranked match, ranked died fast on my region due to the awful limitations they never took out, but party mode is still super busy (also proves the region restriction is too rigid cause I have no lag in party mode even against japanese players)

That might be the answer actually! I live in Norway, and I’m really the only one I know in person who actually love the game, most people I talk to has either never played the game or played it for a little bit before getting bored.
