I don't think it would cause people to abandon talented characters, in fact it might have the opposite effect. For.instance, you could use any of your 100+ characters to help climb the ranks.

That's what I said, the opposite of that. :hehe
It would cause people to abandon worse characters for fear of it ruining their record, not abandoning their characters who are good for winning matches. Therefore, if I use one of my characters like Kendo, he's horrible at fighting in canon so obviously would loose most of his battles and plummet my record for ever using him. Therefore, I wouldn't use him.
