maximum frustration
But then what’s to stop teams from having 3 people quit to save one teammate from ranking down?
Heck. What a way to boost. Just get 3 random accounts to boost one to champion… if the team ever gets close to losing, just have the 3 dummy accounts quit… the main account will never rank down.
You see, there is always a flaw to ranking systems. The win/loss system is a very barebones version that is the easiest to prevent exploitation.
I understand the frustration of that for sure. I feel though that the real problem here is that there aren’t social playlists. If there were social playlists, I would say don’t play without a team in ranked - simple enough - and if you do you accept the risk of doing so. Unfortunately that’s impossible right now, so it’s a lose-lose situation. You either get a ranking system that makes sense and encourages teamwork but is unforgiving to certain situations you might not be in control of, or you get something horrible like Reach’s arena where it’s actively incentivized for you to make your teammates do worse because it “keeps the individual in mind”.

but they would notice some one doing that
just have JIP in and if you are jipped in to a game you aren’t ranked on it like in Titanfall that way no one complains

I don’t have any problem with the win/loss ranking. I have a problem with quitters. In halo 2 ur rank still changed based in the outcome even if u quit early. So if u quit and ur team loses u rank down. Bring that back, probly cut down on the quitters pretty quick.
kudos to you for sticking it out
but honestly this game needs social playlists asap

Oh wonderful. I get to be forced into losing games, get slaughtered and have it all be a waste of time that doesn’t count anyways.
I’d rather just spend another 60 seconds in search and get a game worth my time.
Ultra bump

So you would rather be in a game have team mates quit and be left on your own 1v4

This would only work for a few matches then the quitting players would start receiving temp bans from playing and they will get more severe if they come back and keep quitting.
You forget about cheaters and exploiters.
Sorry, but a few bad apples really do spoil the whole bunch.
