I was talking to my mate, and we were just the subject of the new season, ranking systems and what not, and was making some comparisons to realize that League of Legends and Halo 5’s ranking systems are almost exactly the same.
League of Legends: Bronze Silver Gold Diamond Platinum Master Challenger
All between 1-6 to next rank, based off a win loose rato, and matching people in the same ‘Elo’ as you.
Just thought id bring this up and see peoples insight on this, But even the whole Elo system is almost the same, Kinda made me think in someway Halo almost copied or at least based off the ranking system on LoL’s

Either way I hate the ranking system on this game, then again its just my opinion. I can assure you that more people would want the 1-50 ranking system back.

Nah, I forgot 2 actually, lol forgot LoL’s diamond, now its 7-7
Josh Menke, who no longer works at 343, worked on the design for Halo 5. To the best of my knowledge, he created the Starcraft II system, which he says inspired LoL.

Never played Starcraft II so wouldn’t have knowledge on the ranking systems. So technically, Halo 5 is just a long line of copied ranking systems?

DoTA is only 6 ranks, and CS:GO? I wouldn’t really say so, CS:GO’s ranking system is different compared to all of these, I was just saying the LoL’s has the closest comparison to Halo 5’s

I don’t think anyone claims that H5 is original in this regard.
As far as I know, he’s had his hand in a number of games (H5, StarCraft II, Black Ops 2, Hearthstone) and his work inspires both copycats and those who seek to improve upon it.

H5 has no originality. The game is simply -Yoink- on and new ones are made to generate money. They don’t care about the community. Bonnie Ross needs lynched.

How is CS:GO any different? Because it has different names for the ranks? It’s all win based and you have initial placement games to get your starting rank.
Silver 1-3 = Bronze 1-6.
Silver 4-Master = Silver 1-6
Nova 1-4 = Gold 1-6
Master Guardian I - Elite = Plat 1-6
Distinguished Master Guardian-Legendary Eagle = Diamond 1-6
Legendary Eagle Master - Supreme Master First Class = Onyx
Global Elite = Champion.

The ranking system seems a bit… Original, basing it off other games ranking systems, it already was unique and now its… this.
I feel as if he’s hand of work on H5 had, well, crap impact. But then again this is my opinion.

How is it not? You see the whole difference of placements?
There is between 3-6 different ranks before getting the new rank.
I don’t see where the idea of 1-4 games to next rank is compared to 1-6? Again, To clarify Im saying LoL has the Closest Comparison to halo 5’s ranking system.
Cs:Go’s is… close, but by far no means close to comparison compared to other games
So what? So what it has the same ranking system? So what?
You want to go back in the days when Halo was the first big online multiplayer shooter for console? That inspired almost every other shooter game up to date? O MY GOD THEY COPIED HALO!! So what?
Why are you trying to make a big deal out of everything. It doesn’t affect that way you play? It doesn’t change the way that you are matched up with people of your skill? So what? What is the big problem with having the same ranking system? Exactly, nothing.
