RE: Quick ladder question...
The best players have the highest ELO ratings. In fact it functions rather well and is far more accurate than win/loss ratings as the latter doesn't take into account the skill level of opponents. ELO does.

If you do a sort on ELO in the ladder the strongest players are on top. A win/loss ratio sort is "polluted" with players who have high win loss rate but rarely challenge opponents with more skill than themselves.

I always look at the ELO to have an idea about a person's skill in one look.
If their ELO is higher than mine, I'm probably in for a difficult match.
