Bronze 4 teammates when Im plat 1 in arenas?
Why am I constantly getting Bronze and Silver teammates in Ranked arenas? I lose more rp (-15) than I gain (+12) for matches and its getting pretty annoying. I cant play with my own friends who are...

@CocoaHyena that's what I've been trying to figure out too.
Since respawn didn't get too detail into their ranked system many people had to do it themselves.
This video by gaming merchant touches on it well when it comes to points, Windstreaks, and what hidden mmr is.

The one thing I still can't figure out is why I keep getting low level teammates, even when I go on a winning streak. If I was on a really bad losing streak, than yeah, I can see it, but the having to fight plat and diamond players (sometimes, their duos/3 stacks) with a player who started a couple weeks ago isn't fair nor fun.

- @soccerking122 Yeah I saw that video as well when he released it, but I believe theres a matchmaking issue that began after the 1st patch/update, and since, its trying to balance teams incorrectly. Averaging a Plat 1 player and a Silver 4 as a Gold 2 for example.
But the bottom line is, regardless of MMR you should not have teammates more than a rank below you, and IMO, that should be 4 levels.
I.E. a Plat 1 should not have below a Gold 1 teammate.

A guy ranked a few tiers above me is going to be *much* better than me. That sort of ranking logic is deeply flawed (if it's true).
- @RockDokRock The matchmaking should be like Ranked BR not going more than 1 tier above or below. I.E. if you are a Diamond player, the lowest rank teammates you should get are Plat, regardless of MMR
