No. I've asked about that a few times before and the response I got is that the games produce rating that is still valuable for casual elo purposes.

In other words, FFAs help with rating more than they hurt.

TBH this is something I find difficult to argue with, for all the wrong reasons. I don't know if that's still what is mostly happening, but when I stopped playing FFAs, the room would systematically gang on the higest rated player. Unless you're good enough to win a 3+v1, you're going to lose. You're going to lose rating, and they're going to gain some. This also means it's a mode ripe for elo dumping in a "legitimate" way.

That
being
said
if
Hedkeaf
ranked
up
in
FFAs,
that
seems
to
mean
they
aren't
doing
that
anymore,
so
admins
would
point
to
this
and
say:
see?
the
best
player
in
the
room
ranked
up,
as
expected.
In
this
case,
they'd
also
be
right.
