Well ranked is pointless now

Yeah I feel the same way. No point in playing ranked now that I'm in diamond.

Not only is it stressful, the best way to gain RP still remains placement. And that's boring because...

Fighting usually means you either lose or most of your squad needs a respawn. The risk and reward is not worthy of fighting. 

Running for placement is boring. 

There is no reason for me to play ranked. Even if I win with 1-3 kills, I can easily lose two games and erase 2/3 of the gain. Placing top 3 each match just to feel progress demotivates me. 

Especially BC I play matches against people with over 5,000 RP on PS4. How is this even possible?
