Being able to see someone else's license, and what modes they put their time in, and which character they play with the highest percent, makes all the difference in the world.
There are still many players whose rank is E5 and who use the title beginner, just so they can go into a room and pwn everyone. But if you look at their license you find out they've played 150+ online, mayber 450+ off line (mostly wins) etc. And they only played 1 or 2 ranked matches. There's nothing wrong with just player matches, but if you never rank up, you can have a 1000+ matches online and still be E5 and appear to be beginner to other beginners. So its a good idea to look at player level as well. It will give you another indicator whether you're truly playing a noob (which is okay) or if you're playing a seasoned player that choses not to rank up.
I love the stats that SC keeps, that license concept is awesome.
Of course online lots of ppl are going to use titles like 'beginner' , 'Trainee',
, 'Go gently', 'I'm afraid', etc. to try to hide the fact that they are really intermediate to advanced players, again the STATS tell the story. If a player has hundreds or thousands of games played with a win percent of 70% or better Watch Out!
IMO the game is all about having fun. Its not fun necessarily to play someone that is far beyond your skill set who just brutalizes and punishes you and you have no idea why your losing so badly . For most ppl that frustrating. That is unless you are a glutton for punishment :)
Playing someone whose marginally better than you, can be fun and a learning experience. Playing someone roughly at your level can be fun and a learning experience. I recommend teaching ( as opposed to brutalizing) players at a lower
level than you because the better everyone is, the more fun the game is. The STATS
that are kept in your License and the other player's License helps to identify skills sets by how many games played, how often characters are used, game modes played , etc.
Being able to download other players replays is another way of identifying whose advanced, intermediate, noob, etc. Also if you 're trying to move up in skill set, then studying the replays of advanced players is a good way to go.
Obviously this my opinion, but the online experience is most fun when you are playing others that are roughly at your skill level. Use the other players license to
help determine that , and online will be that much more fun.
Lag happens, and when it does , just move on. The good thing is we can search for ranked matches by requesting 4+ bars. (For those of us who are hung up on ranked matches), and in player matches its all casual any way, so no harm, no foul.

So far i have enjoyed the online experience. Most of the friends i interact with on a regular basis refuse to play with me after some unpleasantness during SCIV so i only can play online for the challenge needed.
I do get the Ezio range spammers, the Sig and Nightmare (too damn fast to be using that sword one handed) players, and the always fun "you hit the ground when i let you" Viola player. But i'm trying to master Pyrrha omega so i can't complain.

i got sucker into a ranked mach where i play someone with the beginner title, i chose to try my hand as Viola and he cheesed me out with Mitsu... i was not amused. That was until i ran into him later while using Pyrrha, i guess side stepping was new to him cause i got my vengeance.
