I’ve been between 7200 and 6900 RP on BR ranked for 6 days straight… just absolutely fluctuating, and it’s like no matter what I do, I can’t break Diamond. At this point last week, for this season so far, I had a 14.5% win and my KD was about 1.1 (I only play BR ranked, nothing else) now it’s under 10% and my KD is like 0.98. How can it be humanly possible to have every match I play where I get 3rd partied nonstop, squads ALWAYS seem to know where I am on the map, or my teammates are absolute potatoes, HOW???

@maximas1986 And then you inv me to join you in the less-than-3-mins I came on for a daily pack?! You think I want your worn-out ranked experience leaking on me?! xD

@DaDeDimson Hey man, I'm sorry you're feeling this way. I'm glad that my ambitions in this game are small.

@KissYourHomieUwU There was this Wraith I used to play with, he was much better than me mechanically but he still had same kd as me. Like @maximas1986 said, it's a rough representation and is also affected by your playstyle.Maybe you are playing like it's pubs and not seeing any progress, it's frustrating as a solo but judging roughly by your kd you should be able to do it. If not, git gud xD (jk)

@maximas1986 He has his own castle where the villagers pay him tribute!

It feels like it shouldn’t be possible to get hard stuck this bad

@DaDeDimsonexactly the same here, I was playing solely ranked for the past few days trying to go out of diamond but did even budge, I won a couple of matches and earned some RP just to lose all of it in less than an hour after I got it.
yesterday I tried to team up with a friend of mine and had the same result only difference was the reasons of why we lost.
we tried everything, camping, pushing, hot-drop, safe drop, long-range close range, etc ...etc so we finally gave up on ranked for this split and ranked in general.
in all honesty, maybe I hit my skill level ceiling and this is where I belong ...after all this is the purpose of a ranked system, right?

edit: one thing that really bugs me is that if I want to play ranked I need to play on EU servers because my local server is not populated with ranked players ( one of the reasons I suggested that they need to lock the servers and let the matchmaking match everyone within the closest 3 servers to them ) so EU server shows it's 130 Ms ping on servers list but in real life, it's 250 Ms.
imagine going against someone playing with 15 ms ping with 250 ms ping, you get the picture

@DaDeDimson I'm a hardstuck diamond myself, diamond lobbies are sweaty for the wrong reason, I mostly stop playing ranked once I hit diamond, there's no point playing in a lobby filled with masters and predators, not even 'similar skills' anymore lmao

@KissYourHomieUwU some times the KDR is not a measurement of skills, I got a friend who has been hitting master in both splits for 3 seasons now.
this season he ranked up from diamond 4 to master in FOUR days, but if you ask me to be honest I will not want to have him as a teammate because he takes a lot of wrong decisions but maybe his playstyle is totally different in ranked but anyway I will not join him in master lobbies as I still have some sanity remaining which I don't want lose XD

@maximas1986 Well, coincidentally I bought the limited edition halo elite series 2 couple days ago... Initially just to resell it, but I might play with it if they got rid of the &£7%#%]!,£{!!? AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH problems that have been plaguing the Series 2 Elite controller, cause it’s still the best controller ever! If it’s good, I’m keeping it, if not, well, I’ll make hundreds with it even if opened xD.

It comes in nov tho... xD.

You have sanity left?! How do you do it!
