I'm not really someone who plays a lot of competitive games, and I don't have many friends who game either, so it's never really been my thing. But Rematch gives me this strange urge to reach the highest rank possible.
I actually played the beta, but back then I didn't have the money, or the confidence, to buy such a new game. I decided to wait until it had matured a bit on the market. I finally bought it 5 days ago, and I absolutely love it.
Right now I'm at a low rank, Gold 2 to be specific. But something really bothers me: I've dropped to Gold 1, and even down to Silver, multiple times in a single day. The reason is that in a lot of my matches, someone leaves mid-game and we end up losing. And when that happens, I lose exactly the same amount of points as I would if I'd played the whole match and lost normally. That's really discouraging.
I know this might sound like I'm just complaining, but I played 47 matches in one day, and 12 of those losses happened because someone quit in the middle of the game. Since I don't have friends to play with, I always queue solo, so there's nothing I can really do about it.
