The way I see it, I would rather have an Onyx player who is 20-5 on my team than a Platinum player that is 20-5 and not able to win enough to get to Onyx.
Also, there’s a huge difference between a Platinum player going 20-5 vs. Platinum noobs and Champion player going 12-10 vs. Pros.

Who cares about KD? Pros have low KD.
If you stick it out, rank barely goes down. If most the match is 1v4, your Rank barely moves at all if you lose.
wait for updates, updates solve everything…

With exception to Armor Lock, Reach was better in just about everything compared to this game.
H2 Ranking system will ever be the best, glad they used it for MCC.

> they should have the halo 3 ranking system, actually made me feel like i was good. i have always thought the “getting points and ranking up” system was crap. just cause you play a lot doesn’t mean you should be the top rank, only way to get the top rank is to do good and earn it.
Definitely agree man
Can someone please explain to me the “PLAYER RANKING” IN WARZONE AND HOW THAT NUMBER IS CALCULATED?? And before you start talking about the ARENA Ranking…I am NOT talking about that, and don’t tell me there isn’t one because I see it everyday in my stats when I play WARZONE and the number changes every time I finish a WARZONE game. Also…does anyone else think its really really difficult to try to figure out your total kills and total deaths in WARZONE? They could of made this way easier.
Anybody know what the level cap is, I hear its 50?
This is the ranking system that Halo needed since Halo Reach, is a fresh ranking system and it’s very competitive not like Halo 3 but it’s OK. The only thing that I have seen is that sometimes it’s not equilibrated, I have seen players with negative K/D ratio and the system assign them Platinum rank, and other players who have nice K/D ratio assign the same rank, I think they might just recalibrate that. Anyway evreybody can reach the champion rank if you just have a good team and have good skills.
I personally preferred Halo:3’s ranking system 
I absolutely hate this new ranking system. I vote an unranked playlist besides Warzone. I can no longer have fun playing Slayer or SWAT or even this new Arena. I don’t deserve Diamond. I’m not a horrible player, but I know damn well I don’t deserve the Diamond rank because I was placed in a match full of Onyx players. There is no more fun in it. Just pure competitive every single game. Now I just go up against try-hard players that do absolutely nothing but play the damn game. This needs to be fixed SOON.

I would disagree that Pros have low KD, maybe not an amazing one, but positive for sure. Definitely stick it out man. Its unfortunate but thats just more reason to go to game chat and meet more people, send more friend requests, and get your network on. There is a LFG spot on this site, check it out, plenty of people looking for others to battle with.

I want halo 3 ranking system but that’s just me. My opinion

Interesting thought and i agree for the most part. Only downfall is people just racking up kills on objective based game types. Id be hard pressed to reward someone who is siting back and just killing people when were trying to capture the flag…although all those deaths said player is racking up does keep the enemy from getting your teammates or the flag…idk though
I think the ranking system works really well. I play alone a lot and seem to get pretty close games for the most part! That is indication that the system works as far as I’m concerned. Rarely are games a huge upset.

You must not be playing Halo 5. Go to Halo Tracker and check out the KDs for the Arena players.
The Ranking system is broken as hell! In my qualifying matches I won 8-10 and got put in Platinum, my friend won 4 and was put in Onyx! Win/Loss is an awful way to rank games, I’m getting best part of 20 Kills to 15 Deaths on almost every game I play but I haven’t been able to get past Platinum 3 because of other people’s poor play! This needs to change! Fast!
If they would only have kept the cR ranking system

Agreed, the Reach ranking system was great.
