Onyx 1640 down to 1509 in one day

Does the game just expect me to carry every single game??

I’ve about had it with the ranking system in this game as well as the teammates I’m given when I play ranked slayer. I bust my BUTT to get up to the 1600s every season. Just played a super sweaty game that you just barely won? Here’s 1 point!!! ONE POINT!

then you get teammates who go 2 and 17 so you lose the game then you drop 10!! TEN! You can have an entire night of progress wiped out in one game!

ive had about 6 games today where my team quits and almost every game I get kids who go below .50 kd. It’s just miserable. I’m playing ONYX RANKED and I get kids who just picked up this game this week!!

I love this game and the competitive scene is super addicting but this junk is driving me insane.

should I just stick to social to get rid of this stress and frustration?

Honestly I don’t even bother playing ranked anymore, the games population is so far and between these days that getting a actual fully balanced match is near impossible.
Carrying teammates all day to barely get a CSR point isn’t worth the time.

I wouldn’t bother getting stressed over it at this point, Halo Infinite is on the horizon and your Halo 5 ranks will be essentially meaningless in less than 2 months.

Most of the issue you’re having is population related. And it’s worth mentioning that it’s not at all unusual for player skill to fluctuate +/- 150 MMR match-to-match. Now, it can certainly suck seeing your CSR progression regress; particularly, when having setbacks due in-part from playing on teams consisting of large player skill gaps or connection quality (population related issues). Nevertheless, if you continue to invest time into playing you’ll likely see your CSR bounce back; at least, to some degree (or completely) over time. In the end, you should expect your CSR to fluctuate around the general mean of your average MMR.

Yeah man thanks that’s a great point. I get so into ranked I can’t help it!
