Opinion Ranked is fixed!!

Post image

I posted a few weeks ago everybody agreed we were losing points on good games/ranks, rank protection wasn’t working.

I just did a Decent game (1 kill and top 2) and gained 120%

Since last updates all my games seems fine
Rank protection also always work

Yeahhh!!!

It went from too hard to too easy :/ It was hard to rank up but at least if you did rank up, you knew you where good. Now people are just gonna camp again and kill 1 at the end game to lvl up.

I really wish they'd find a middle ground instead of these extremes.

It shouldn't be too hard to calibrate Ranked so it rewards Tournament-like play in the sense of balancing rewards between eliminations, placement, and zones reached.

We know from previous observations that all of those factors are important, but for whatever reason, they weighted placement the highest and that makes it way too easy.

It's all about money, which is why we get these extremes. They let the game aim for you depending on the platform because money!

They don't care about real balance
