Rank distribution

@hashtagmurseFB that is colourful 😃

Im still in bronze, so all mainly bronze and rookie.

Out of interest, what rank were you in that game and were you playing in a premade squad.

Also, did you hang around to see who won.

If so, what rank were they and do you think they were a 3 stack?

@hashtagmurseFB

Gotta love it. Someone at Respawn actually believes that a match spanning silver to predator, with TWO predator stacks, is preferable to making those stacks wait five minutes to get properly matched. 23 players in that match were matched appropriately and 37 got screwed by the matchmaker. Every single one of those 37 players could see that rank distribution in the lobby and if they didn't just shut down and walk away then Respawn made a fool of them twice.

@reconzero I bet those 2 Silver are the ones you don't want to play against... like they are high elo playing witht their Platinum friends that will soon be Masters.

@Palette24carats

I'm sure you're right. Every once in a blue moon I'll queue into ranked and my "rookie" lobbies have no real rookies in them whatsoever. The entire match plays like platinum sweatfest.

And you've hit on the damning flaw in that rank distribution that they show you at the beginning of every match. It shows you where players are currently in their grind, not where they actually belong based on their skill. Yet another reason why ranked play is a sewer filled with players who are either intentionally hiding their own skills or are having them hidden for them by the game.
