Why can a Gold league player play with a Bronze?
I’m in gold and I can still play with my bronze friend. Doesn’t that kinda create uneven match making? What if I’m in apex predator and I can still play with my bronze friend.

Well then here's the thing. Don't make it a grind system. There are better ways to make a ranking system. But the way they have set it up, anyone can make it to the top. I find that extremely lame and I know I'm not the only one. Why make a ranking system if the ranks aren't true to each player? I understand everything that each person has said and to make an observation, I believe that the only people who have commented on this post are those who want to play with lower ranks or lower ranks who want to play with their friends who are higher ranks. And in response, I say, play regular Apex. That's why it's still open. If you don't have the time, that sucks. If you're not the best at the game, that's okay. But if Apex is going to make a ranking system that makes sense, then they need to reset the parameters for ranking up instead of just making it a grind system. It's no one's fault but the makers of the game and their short-sightedness. I'm not the best at the game and I don't have all the time in the world, but I'd rather make it as far as I can honestly.
@PublicIDexists2Lower ranked players playing with their high ranked friends in sweaty lobbies is a way that it ISN'T a grind, man :/ My friends who don't have time are still playing gold with us because they're good players.
Bads wont get high in the time they've got to do it.
A rigid bracket system simply won't work for OCE region as there aren't enough players.
It is a grind for those who have the time and for those who don't, like I said before, that sucks. But it's no one's fault but the game designers. If they change the parameters of how you get to higher ranks instead of amount of time one is able to play the game then this would be a non issue and those who don't have all the time in the world would stop being penalized. But that's not the case right now. And I am highly doubtful that this is going to change this season, which sucks. Because Apex has to be my favorite game since it came out and it sucks even more that it's being controlled by people who seemingly don't even care about it. I'm sorry if we don't see eye to eye on this issue. But I hope we have both gotten at least a little more insight into the other side of the spectrum.
- @PublicIDexists2 I can't tell anymore if you're complaining about the grind or lauding it as a good thing to keep more casual players out of higher leagues mate :S You're confusing me a little bit.
What spectrum are we talking about as well?We are talking about all players. And I'm talking about honestly working through the ranks. If you're good then you should get a higher rank. If you're not then you shouldn't. Just because someone has all the time in the world to play doesn't mean they should necessarily come into a high rank. But the way they have set up the ranking system, that's exactly what will happen. And that sucks. But if they want to make it competitive like they say they want to, then ranks should not be able to mix. I believe that ranks should be based off of K/D ratio and win/loss ratio. So if player 1 has higher stats than player 2, then player 1 should have a higher ranking no matter how many hours or how many games each has played. I believe this is a more fair and honest route and would set the stage for a better and more competitive ranking system.
