I think it is excellent to see ELO ranking being implemented for alliance matches and it will in the long run show the top dogs :)
I would like to see ELO being implemented for individual players too. In my view the best way to view how successful a player is is to see how many medals he or she has gained in relation to that person's number of games played.
Transforming that into ELO is very simple. You can get a positive rating change by either gaining a medal (most for gold, a little less for silver and so on), or you can base the rating change on DE points when the game ends. This way the ranking would actually mean something, unlike today. Good players would get the best rating, bad players would get a bit worse ranking.
I think this would make players a bit more hesitant to just drop out of games and actually fight it out...
