I’ve had a few close games just recently vs high gold and a few low onyx, and the scores were very close. 46-50 and 49-50. Would it matter if you loose 1-50 compared to 49-50? or is it just purely based on loosing the game?
Currently the Arena ranks are based entirely on Win to loss ratio. It also depends on who you are playing and whos on your team when you win and loose.

It doesn’t matter if its close or you are steaking the team in Arena.
What increases or decreases your division placement is by beating those in a higher division or losing to those who are lower than you. The former allows you to rank up faster while the latter sees your rank go down.
Basically, all that matters is the win or the loss. Ignore player rating as that does not factor into anything.
In the old, broken Arena it went by player rating by that was extremely flawed. By encouraging selfish behavior (FFA mentality) within a team game, your going to do what increases your rating the most. This was done by purposely getting your team mates killed so that their rating was lower. Your rating would be higher and you’d get a better division placement.
