There are so many reasons why ranks are an evil, but you hit on one of the biggest: your rank is never your own in a team-based game. It's your rank plus the average of all the random squadmates you ever got teamed with minus the average of all the enemies you were pitted against. Few of either group, in my experience, were ever in my own skill bracket. In 18 years of Halo or five years of this game. I dipped my toe into ranked play at the beginning of this season because Revival became unbearable, and I'm here to tell you that, while I spent the entire time in the rookie tier, there were no rookie players there at all. So whatever it is that these ranks are supposed to mean or are supposed to tell you about yourself... is lost in translation. I cannot understand how anyone gets anything of value out of the experience. It certainly isn't anything useful in the way of knowledge about where you stand as a player compared to others.
