Is their a DE elo ladder where you can see what match-ups you played ?

It seems like not yet. My understanding is that they'll be adding something like the Age II:DE ones here: https://www.ageofempires.com/stats/ageiide

Have you tried to look at what game data can be taken from servers? Aoe2 allows nice data

I believe that data is pulled from the API that powers the AgeII:DE ladders. Since the ladders aren't available yet, I don't think the API is yet either.

whenever we get a API, its likelly that we will have a ladder in esoc, like the ones aoe2 have?
Aoe2 have the oficial one, but there are dozen of fan made ones that are much better and with more info, would be cool if we had one of those.

And as a bonus, we could revive the classic ranking titles, as it was mentioned in the previous beta:

In the current build, we see that Aoe3DE is using a elo rating system, centered in 1000 points, exactly like aoe2de. First of all, I would like to say that’s a excellent change, as the old power rating (PR) had many problems and the community always used a custom elo system for a more accurate rating. So the current change is a definitely a improvement.

That said, the old system had something fun, that was the names for ratings, its much more fun saying “I’m finally a Captain!” or “I won a game vs a Colonel!” then just saying “I’m rating 1400”. Gives a lot more personality instead of just numbers.

So I would suggest, importing those titles to the new system. A straight “elo 1500=general” doesn’t work here, as elo ratings numbers change based in population, so we don’t know yet if top players will be 1500 or 2500, but, what we can do is a use your position in the ladder as a reference for what “Title” you should have.

I made exemple of how this naming system could work, just a rough example

To the top tiers, we could limit in a set amount of players, something like:
The top 1 player - Field Marshal
Players 2 to 4 - General
5-15 - Lieutenant General
16-30 - Major General

Then after that, just move on with a percentage of your ranking relative to the whole ladder (minus the top30 ofc).
0,2% - Brigadier
1% - Colonel
3% - Lieutenant Colonel
7% Major
15% Captain
20% 1st Lieutenant
25% 2nd Lieutenant
30% Master Sergeant
40% Sergeant
50% Corporal
60% Lance Corporal
80% Private
100% Conscript

(to be clear, this ranking is to be used as a addition to the current elo, not a replacement. So just like in the old game you are “PR19 - Master Sargent”, Now you will be “Elo 1250 - Master Sargent”)

Yeah, we're hoping to implement something on the ESOC site.
