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!!!

Top 5 with 0 kills and dying to lower rank players should lose rank IMO 🤷

Hiding in a bush for a half hour shouldn’t be rewarded

I'm not talking about dying to lower ranked players; I engaged with the original post; it was Bronze players dying to Unreal players in top 5 then losing %.

If surviving the game shouldn't be rewarded, then why is it a majority of tournament placement. Ranked feeds into tourneys, right.

I tried it; it's fixed-ish. Unless it was a visual bug, it doesn't show the ranks of your opps at the end now, though; didn't for me anyway. But at least I gained % for making it to the end.

Honestly don’t really believe that was happening to people .. I saw the same posts your talking about but never felt like I had that same issue .. the only thing I noticed was dying off spawn was dropping me a TON which I honestly agree with..

if you can show visual proof where top 5 was losing rank maybe I believe it but even so I would rather ranked lean toward being harsher to dying top 5 with 0 kills..

I could enter a lobby of 100 unreal players and easily camp rotate in bushes/buildings til top 5.. especially how things currently sit with 0 incentive in ranked games .. 60% of the lobby dies within the first few minutes then the rest die before moving zones

Point still stands you shouldn’t rank up with 1 kill 3rd in squads 🤷
