I genuinely thought I was the only one losing my mind over this, i play solo and I got to diamond 3 from plat 3 in a day, ever since I got diamond 2 recently I’ve been consistently getting bronze and silver team mates, I actually cannot play the game mode anymore because of the team mates I’m getting, it’s completely ruined my ap points, I’m getting like +12 every win even tho I’m dropping like 3k to 4K damage games consistently when my team mates can barely get 500 damage, it’s actually ridiculous.

@EmmzZz7 In arenas, the +12 means you're winning games against people below your rank. Much below actually. For me, I reached plat 3 in the first season, and this season I decided not to deal with matchmaking as much, so I've only reached gold 4 and left it at that. Anyways, winning matches results in getting over 100 points, even when entering plat. Losing matches was anywhere from 12-15 point loss which seemed odd. Basically, the enemy teams were a higher rank than mine, so winning rewarded a lot and losing was less punishing.
