With the new system coming, it's going to mean playing with friends could potentially severely ruin your Personal Rating.
To keep it short, it would be good for Skirmishes to make a return so you could have fun with friends without having any detrimental affects to said fun.

Why not?

Really? Must have missed that in the Patch Notes.
They are not planned to return with patch 5.4 at this time, this is why you didn't see it in the patch notes. We do plan on bringing them back in the future, we simply don't have a set date for when that will be, though.

If I may; why not? It's not hard to implement.
From an outside perspective, I can see why you would assume that. To the outside observer, bringing skirmishes back into the game should be as simple as flicking a switch to reactivate the old system. The issue is that it's sadly not that simple because while it may have functioned just fine with a previous version of the game, that doesn't guarantee that it will work now. :(

We hope to have skirmishes back soon, but we cannot make any promises on when that will be for the moment.
