12 AP Arena Ranked
I have been gaining only 12 AP every match i win and losing 12 AP every match i lose. My friend (who is the same rank) is gaining 20/30+ every match we win even if i had beter stats i still only get...
So just want to say this entire ranked system is broke and doesn’t make sense. I landed silver 4 lost a bunch of games and went from getting 150AP per game to 12 and dropped down to silver 3. I started playing with my friend who was gold at the time and he was getting around 100 AP per game and we went on a hot win streak and he landed plat by the time I landed silver 1 and he only plays ranked arena with me. Currently I’m gold 3. Also top damage or in the top 2 of most damage dealt in the entire game. I barely lose and I lose about 12 AP a game now and get about anywhere from 23-30 AP a game even if I go on a win streak I can get less AP, I haven’t yet reached anywhere near 100 or what any of my friends are getting. Something doesn’t add up
You are of course right, the ranked arenas is broke and has been since it came out. For the current season I have heard of people winning all of their placement matches with good kill and damage counts and getting placed in Bronze 4. while others have gone 5W/5L or 7W/3L and placed in silver or higher. That is the first thing broken.
The totally arbitrary awarding of AP is also broken and no matter how well a single player does if their random teammates let them down or cause a loss their is no reward just loss of AP. this has happened to me get 9 kills and over 3k dmg and loss the match because one can not carry all the weight while your teammates combine for 3 kills and less than 1k damage.
The best thing to do as a player at this point is to use arena's as a better firing range to warm up and then move on to duo's, Pub BR or ranked BR.
