Is the rank system to lenient?

After playing multiplayer for sometime now, i feel that it is way to easy to get a high rank.

For my arena games I got all 10 wins and got diamond 1, yet on my slayer games, I only won 7 of 10 and yet I still got diamond 1. Are they going to fix this so it makes more sense.

That’s odd since I won 7ish out of 10 on SWAT and got placed in Onyx.

The 1st ten games rank you based on individual skill, not win/loss.

It depends on how you do in said games. In your placement matches, it’s about your wins AND individual skill. Once you’re ranked, it’s about your wins/losses.

For instance, in SWAT placement matches, I had 5 wins and 5 losses. From just that information, where do you think I should be? Silver? Gold?

Where I placed was actually in Onyx. Want to know why? Because in each of those games I played, I was dropping 25+ kills and ~10 deaths and losing because of bad kids on my team.

This ranking system is not supposed to be a grind, it’s supposed to place you into your appropriately skilled bracket as soon as possible.

For instance, once you’re in Onyx in Team Arena, come back and tell me how easy it is to rank up haha. :wink:

thank you for this, helps me understand whats up with it

I think it is a broken system. A friend of mine won 4/10 games with a 1.05 K/D for his SWAT placement, got Onyx. I went 6/10 with a 1.30 K/D and got platinum 1.

I think it’s simply because enough people haven’t qualified for a rank yet. I got Onyx in free for all after winning only 1 out of my ten placement matches, and free for all is most likely the least popular mode, so there are definitely less people who actually have a rank in the playlist. It has to give you a rank based on where everyone else is.
In all the other playlists I got Gold and one Platinum.

It’s still broken and extremely inconsistent

I think your first 10 games are based on your individual play too, not just wins and losses.

I got into Onyx in FFA, by winning one game and generally doing bad.

It’s weird.

This. This is why I didn’t like the 1-50 system. You had to grind your way to where you were playing with people of your same skill. And yet you could still be held back by being paired with a losing team. I wouldn’t have minded the 1-50 system as far as actual ranks go but the purpose of a ranking system is to match based on skill. Without matching properly and placement matches the CSR doesn’t say nearly as much.

The way the ranking system for your first 10 matches works, in my opinion, is it looks how you are performing against ranked players. So if you get rekt by diamond players but still do good against gold you’ll be put in platinum.

People seem to be confused at how the ranking system actually works.

During your placement games wins and losses are not the most important factor, yes they do contribute to where you will be placed, but individual stats weigh in heavily. Example, I won 3 out of 10 games in swat, but I went +15-20 every game and got placed in onyx.

You could have been playing against other Onyx players. If you did average against Onyx players it would put you in Onyx.

stop posting… its been solved already
