Slayer: Won 7/10 games, had very high KA/D in almost all of them. Placed in Silver 2
Breakout: Won 6/10 games, slightly lower KA/D than slayer. Placed in Bronze 2
Strongholds: Won 3/10 games, went extremely negative in almost every single game. Place in Gold 2
For strongholds, the game kept putting me in matches with onyx/semi-pros and I got -Yoink- on every single time, but how does that explain how the -Yoink- I got Gold 2?
I noticed the same type of thing, except my rank didn’t change. I was about 50/50 and moderately good and got Gold 2 in Slayer. I was 3 wins to 7 losses with crap stats and got Gold 2 in Breakout. Then in Stronghold I won 7 out of 10 with really good stats and still got Gold 2. I don’t understand exactly how it gets your initial ranking.
Not that it seems to matter since I still get placed with 2 onyx and 4 people still gaining rank. And it seems half the time one of the onyx players goes 2 and 20. It doesn’t feel like the rank does much of anything. It really doesn’t dictate skill and it doesn’t seem to match you with people of similar skill.
while playing in a party of 3 I won 10/10 games in strongholds, I got placed in high gold 2. My team mates got high gold 3 and onyx 1. I think this worked well as of the 3 I was the worst performer with the mvp throughout the games being the one who got onyx 1. That seems pretty solid ranking to me.
I still think everyone should start at the bottom rank though instead of being placed in a division. Greater xp gains for big win streaks would allow the pro players to rank up a lot faster.

I think you have something there. There should be a win streak bonus. If you’re winning multiple times in a row, you should have your rank increased more and more since it’s obvious you aren’t the rank you’re currently at.
On the flip side, I’m not sure about a lose streak. You occasionally just get bad luck. You don’t want to punish people too harshly for losing. Losing is mostly it’s own punishment. It isn’t fun nor does it feel good to lose. Loosing more and more XP is just adding insult to injury.
