Way to be really subtle you clown. Maybe you missed the fact where I said we caught people cheating.
Another fact; people who claim that 75% of matches they lost had cheaters in it are usually just bad (in comparison to the guy who just killed him ofc, everything is relative)... No offense and not accusing you, just speaking in general terms here =). You see it all the time on this forum; some people are certain that there are 20-30% hackers in every match. I have literally seen 0 hackers this season. I have had random teammates accusing me of hacking just for being able to one-clip or 1v3 a squad =)
And @RockScorpion384 is actually correct, in principle. In any MMR based competitive game; if you lose way more points when losing in relation to what you gain when winning, its usually an indicator that your MMR value/game performance trend is to low for your to your current rank. And ofc its the same the other way around. If the game awards you tons of points for a win, the game has identified you as too good for your current rank and tries to boost you faster to the rank that corresponds best to your MMR/skills.
But then again; it might just be Respawn who are too bad to design a MMR-based system =)
- D3loFF4 years agoRising Veteran@Balladalidila I have 70% win rate in Arena and can tell you that it was extremely bad designed. You just can't play for fun... the game matches you 90% of the time with people who require hard carrying so you have to sweat a lot if you want to progress. And I want to progress, that's why I play Ranked in the first place...

So unless you only have like 10-15 matches under the belt and actually played a substantial number of ranked matches, then if what you say is true, i,e that you have 70'% win rate in ranked AND says you hard carry your team 90% of all those matches, then logic dictates that you're are being matched also against opponents that are way, waay worse below you skill level, as well as bad teammates right? So at least you should have quite good times playing, even if the system is broken?- 4 years ago
The MM is definitely broken and I will NOT be playing Ranked Arenas until something is fixed
For those of us that solo que the majority of the time, Ranked Arenas MM has been so bad and I don't want to lose the rank I’m at.
For example I’m put up against a full premade squad of lvl 300 - 500 players, and for teammates it pairs me with 2 lvl 30’s!!!?
Wtf!? My teammates skill was so low, it seemed like they had never played APEX before….
There is NO chance of me coming out of that situation with a WIN.
So for now i’m just avoiding Ranked altogether.

Not sure if it’s MMR in general or just Apex’s system but one thing for sure, some needs to change. Winning needs a base point gain and 12pts ain’t cutting it. I had a 3-game win streak, 12pts each, lost and got hit with like a 20-23pt loss. Yesterday got hit with 2 30pts losses everytime I lost a match that would’ve got me back to Plat 4. Feels like the game is gatekeeping me at this point.
