Rework the dueling system

[WhyN0t]

I'm not sure if you are discussing something unrelated or not. By the way I don't know if a diminishing duel level is a good idea or even doable or not. Just throwing stuff out there.
I don't get what you mean. Isn't that the whole idea of dueling levels? Anyone with approx. the same dueling level can be dueled? Only those that consistently loose at duels would be too low if dueling levels were allowed to drop. Those that do win at duels would compete with each other?

If you don't initiate duels for more than 45 days you start losing duel lvl. And players do this intentionally. If you are dueling constantly it's hard to find opponents (on some worlds). I had to duel with 10% motivation because at higher duel lvl, i would have no targets.
