Why Halo 5's Ranking System makes sense

Games Halo 5: Guardians

So ive seen a thread yesterday about if you have good K/D in a game you shouldn’t go down a rank

Halo’s ranking system makes perfect sense and ill explain why… It should be win you go up, lose you go down.So everyone saying if your K/D is good you shouldn’t go down?’ You seem to forget that K/D is not the be all end all, in fact its pretty meaningless the higher up you go.

Let me explain, you play a game of CTF on Truth, you go 19-10 and your teammate goes 10-19 and you lose the game. You blame your teammate for the loss? You forget what that teammate could of been doing, he could of been running the flag doing objective work, he could of been anchoring spawns keeping them in the base so the rest of his team get get kills. He could be top mid putting damage into people but not getting kills, or controlling power weapons so the enemy team doesnt have them, or sacrificing his life to reset the flag.

My point is K/D is very intangible and you cant really measure what impact you had on the game this is why win/loss is the only system that truly works. If your moaning about being stuck in gold.plat, just play more and get better, soon you will be able to carry your teammates to diamond no problem.Let me know your thoughts

And what if the guy who goes 19-10 scores twice, has a bunch of flag carrier kiils and defends?

Then tough luck he should of played better. The game evens out he will get good teammates the next game

The game doesn’t even out. Almost every game I play someone quits. The last game I played my teammate was betraying us (at the diamond/onyx level) assumingly because we weren’t winning within the first 2 minutes.

I disagree I can go double my kills / deaths and i.down rank because others players aren’t the same level not fair tbh.

I can play a ctf and make all the plays and save the team but if I don’t physically score the flag, i dont get many rank points. When you reach onyx or champion this is where it hurts.

I don’t care about rank. I play for fun. Where you are in rank really has no real value unless you are trying to go pro.
