Need a Ranking System

Hey just wanted to start out by saying I believe your card game is up there with any other TCG on mobile devices.
The one thing that is glaringly holding this game back a bit is the lack of a rating system for the player vs. player battles.
A simple, start at 1200; lose points if you lose and gain points if you win would be suffice. Just like in chess. And obviously if you get paired against someone a hundred or so points more than you, you would gain more points for a win and lose a little less for a loss.
This would hiiighly improve the player vs. player aspect of this game in my opinion. Which is an aspect of the game people love. The competitiveness.
This is coming from someone who's played many multiplayer games as I'm sure readers and developers alike have as well. From World of Warcraft arenas, League of Legends, Halo, and even chess. Also Magic the Gathering, which is pretty much the standard for trading card games. All of these games are great in their own right and were made so in a big part by the user being able to compete with like-skilled based players.
It doesnt leave the player frustrated for getting completely stomped by someone who has played the game much longer and there for a much better deck. And at the same time, the player with the great deck just yawns as he/she obliterates the newer player.
I believe it is a decently simple change that would make this game much better. And I for one would keep playing and spend more money on it.
