When EA is going to fix this ?

@Sofistes_mnt 

You have a 4k badge, playing in silver and are upset that you got two bad teammates? Yes, the ranked system is bad but you are not a victim here. Its as much a problem that you play in silver as it is that silvers are teamed with rookies. 

@Sofistes_mnt Sadly, I am being serious. As much as I would love to share videos of cheaters cheating and show the names of smurphs, we cannot due to the forum's rules.

https://answers.ea.com/t5/help/faqpage#dos-donts:

"Don't "name and shame." If you see a suspected cheater, please report them by using the appropriate tools. We can't take any action against such accounts on Answers HQ, and such posts can lead to harassment."

The naming and shaming extends to any names regardless if its a cheater or not. The only time where its okay is if its your banner card, (like when you're showing two kill trackers having two different numbers), teammate's names (where they're only there because they're visually glitched or bugged out such as:

Spoiler

or some other reason that doesn't involve them being a cheater, or otherwise breaking the rules.

If they're

- Cheating

- Being Toxic

- Smurphing

- Abusing glitches / bugs

Their names have to be hidden. I choose to keep the teammates name's hidden in the image above mainly because I rather be safe than sorry about the "no naming and shaming" rule. Also, Wattson is bugged out in the image, because she was shot down during the animation of Valkyrie's ultimate starting up where the jets charge up and blast the team up into the air. Because she was locked into a skydive animation, it seems to have canceled the knocked animation which in turn prevented her from being severed from the skydive. If she was knocked before ulting or while we were further up in the sky or flying, she would of fallen off as she's meant to.

I would report that as a bug... but... well... *looks at the audio, servers, and other issues*

Sure, ofc no one 'like" getting bad teammates. I just think its a bit silly to be a 4k dmg player in silver and complain about bad teammates since 99% of your teammates SHOULD be much worse than you. 4k dmg players belong in Diamond+. I am ex master with 4ks on most my legends I play and whenever I play in silver, I ofc assume that my teammates in fact are silver skilled: I think it would be silly of me to assume and demand that my teammates also are ex masters who also got reset to silver by the (stupid) system.

But just like @Sofistes_mnt, it the system fault. The ranked design for Apex ranked is actually so bad. The RP gain/loss design for low-to-mid elo, like bronze to gold, rewards too much RPs for not doing "good things" in the game which in turn ofc will keep promoting players that are bad at doing "good things" way above their suitable rank (with good things I mean things in game that makes a good Apex player =)

I would not be surprised at all if its possible to rank all the way from Bronze4 to Gold4 just by landing solo right in the middle of the map and then crouch and AFK until dead, match after match. It might take a while but in the end I think I would have a positive RP gain just from placement and team participation kills by my two teammates and THIS is not a good thing for a ranked system.

Ranked matchmaking is just as BS. You're Bronze, get partnered with other Bronze and Rookies and the Champions are a 3 Gold I stack. Apex is garbage when it comes to fixing anything like this.

@BalladalidilaDidn't the rank system just get reset? I'm not 100 % sure on how qualification matches work but I've so far been placed in broze after them. Do not all players start back in bronze when they reset?
As for the 4k you're probably right about how he doesn't belong in silver because of it. I don't know how long someone's had to have played to get that much kills, but I would assume you'd have to be pretty good at the game by now.

(I read the 4k wrong at first, the words are so small)
