An image that says it all about the state of Ranked
But hey it's been like this for more than a season, Respawn releases patches at a blistering pace!

@Cro_Pittt Wait what's the complaint here? It's nice they reward team play but for those that solo q these changes are way more punishing. Especially the demotion penalty. Like why are you penalizing people?
- @Lord_Scorpion34 From what I see a pred, in likely a 3 stack, killed tons of lower levels, all the way down to silver. In season 13 they made some big changes to ranked that resulted in ultra long queue times for preds and masters(because there were a lot less of them). So they set a low time limit so they could find a game. This is the result.
- @hayhor Oh I see it now. Yeah. I'm in Gold & I see diamonds on a somewhat regular basis which I shouldn't see at all. I can't recount how many preds I've seen this season.
Pred in gold/silver lobby sounds like fun, no not at all I say. No way should they ply with or vs silver/gold.
They should wait if need be, this is not in the spirit of fair play or playing with similarly ranked players.
@Lord_Scorpion34 The fact that predators are matched even with SILVER players. What's the point of "ranked" then? Pubs have that mm already.
Ranked scoring is atrocious. I won't play it.
It was even bad before season 13, but it was supposed to be changed for the better, not for the worse.
Even Jankz in his latest video upload commented on this exact screenshot from
Hiswattson…a guy who barely ever comments on things like this is actually speaking up on SBMM, props to him!
@Cro_Pittt below is a plat II champion squad from last night. Belgium 1 server between 2-3am ish, pre made pred stack all top 500's.
I've tried London server and Frankfurt servers too, with the same result. There is almost no waiting time and I can have up to a 78 ping.
I can make no headway, even with full on creeping, it appears I am hard stuck now.
- @OldTreeCreeper I imagine with lots of seers in the lobby creeping is now impossible?
