Gold
I'm not much for ranked but have been giving it a go since Christmas day and last night via my final game reached Gold. It amazes me how so many poor players make it to silver. I was 3 points from Go...

@hayhor Did you solo queue it? Try solo queuing form silver to platinum. You'll see what I mean. There are hundreds of people in the gold/platinum lobbies that do not belong there. They camped there way up to it.
90-95% of my teammates tonight belong in silver lobbies. They can't use legend abilities. They can't rotate a map. They spend to much time looting that forces us to deal with the storm then try and fight the people camping the edge of the ring as we stumble out damaged from the storm..
Final two squads are fighting, I want to third party it.. Nooo they want to sit there and watch, let them heal up.
Placement multiplier would work wonderfully. It's a Battle Royal game.. If you get 3 kills and 2 assists and win the match then get a 3x multiplier on your kill RP. I understand the object is to win, but it's also to eliminate your opponents, not just hide in a corner while other people do the fighting. I'm not saying you have to push everything you see and hear, but at the very least you should be able to stand a chance at winning the fights you get into. The people I was getting matched with the last 48 hours stood no chance.

@DarthValtrex <— I’m with this guy on this one. Do something like 10 kills is max (cause realistically, who gets 10 kills on a regular (like 1 in 5-10 games) except for highly skilled ppl and even then when going rank up it becomes more difficult) and with 10 kills and top placement you get the max RP. Do this up until diamond.
In diamond ppl know how to play, there you can do the current grading method. This way ppl who are actually gold ppl will stay in gold as they will get stomped by aggressive or eager-2-advance plats and highers and will likely only maybe get killing RP which they’ll lose as soon as they see other ppl cause they don’t wanna develop skillz except roasting s’mores.
Plat lvl players might make it to diamond but if they know whats good for them they wont do it as soon as they see what diamonders can do!
This hybrid model will def work!
@Daze623... in silver & gold the ppl I got bunched up with didn’t hotdrop, didn’t go to 1-other-team places but actually went to whole other side and cautiously moved towards storm -_- if seen a person they either fled or fired rounds as if they got fire ants in their pants tickling them just by walking them... but as soon as enemy opened fire it was as if the fire ants were biting and if you know how painful their bite is you get what I’m saying what happened to my ‘teammates’.
