RE: Changing league repartition.
I'm not sure changing the league sizes would change that issue. If the bottom 10% only play the game once and then stop playing for whatever reason, the fact that you shift the leagues still results in the same bottom 10% not playing.

You'd have to determine what's causing people to stop playing. If it's the fact that there's games that time out, then changing the league sizes doesn't really address that issue as you still have the hidden ranking which would probably be unchanged.

If people are not playing because they aren't any good, then shifting people down levels to reduce the amount of gifted isn't going to solve any problem either.

If anything, a change to the placement matches or to the hidden ranking could be done. Instead of playing 5 placement matches, every person starts with a hidden ranking of 1000 which would be equal to a gifted ranking. Then as they keep playing, they'll be demoted/promoted to leagues as they lose/win. That way you aren't relegated to fluffy right away if you screwed up a couple placement matches because you had no idea what you were doing the first time you played.

Also, season durations should be kept more consistent as that weeds out the players who don't play anymore from the rankings.
