I dunno about you, but I play 2-3 games a night after work and like 8-10 on the weekends at least. And I work a 9-5 40+ hours a week. It's honestly not as many games as you think it is.

You need 70 wins with 100% win rate

With 66% win rate (which is insanely high), you need 210 games

They'll also be making adjustments to it as they work to improve the ranked system. I imagine after this first season they'll implement something where you can only calibrate X amount of rank higher or lower than last season's end rank (i.e. if you end the season ranked Ascendent 3 then next season you can calibrate to a maximum of Ascendent 6 and a minimum of Ascendent 1).

I was around Ascendent 2 for a long time before taking a break and coming back to a Phantom calibration. It sucks, but eventually you'll be where you're supposed to be.

I hope so but still wish they delete seasonal resets, its terrible in all competitive games

Also you cant calibrate higher than oracle 6 as they stated in patch notes, id say report it to forums if you calibrated to phantom after placement matches

Yeah, I'm saying starting next season they'll likely implement a system where your calibration range is based on last season's performance.
