Ranked is so messed up
 This didn't happen to me but i was watching a stream where this guy was a Master, and he got two Platinum IV teammates. What's the point of having tiers if you get in the same lobby people with a ver...
@apostolateofDOOM I'm inclined to think it's the latter to be honest.
Punishing solo players is essentially punishing the majority of your playerbase, which is counterproductive to say the least.
I think people have been put off ranked this season due to things such as the NoReg issues we had at the start of the season and the random server screws happening where you get continuously rubberbanded. Which all impacted the game at a point where ranked is usually at it's busiest.
So there are probably a lot less people playing at the upper echelons of ranked at the moment dur to starting later hence the weird matchmaking we're seeing.
@MandatoryIDtagThey didn't have a problem punishing path mains. :P
Previous seasons I would get put into the same servers of similar ranked but now they are in different matches so I don't know if it's to reduce q times or what but I agree for the reasons you mentioned there are probably a lot less right now.
@apostolateofDOOM I have a feeling pathy will be seeing some more changes in the future anyway,and not necessarily negative ones. 😛
As for the topic at hand it really is hard to say lol,we don't have access to the data respawn have so it's literally just speculation unfortunately. :3
@MandatoryIDtagI know from previous experience EA games like to do things intentionally as social experiments so I'm hoping they collect their data and revert it back asap because as things stand I'm hardly playing ranked or the game in general atm.
Edit: @E9ine_AC I'm in diamond having bronze and silver in my team at times although most often golds so if that's intentional then i don't know what to say.
