If the new entry level is around 25kyu now for new players, most likely we will see players being pushed down below 25kyu anyway, and maybe getting stuck there if there’s a certain amount of volatility of the strength of new players (which I certainly expect there to be). Probably the new entry point will put more onus on trying to differentiate players that aren’t getting above 25kyu, surely we don’t want to demotivate them either by not showing any progress.
