@Cheese9Man No demotion cap? Oh yeah, sorry silvers you will keep getting farmed. Demotion protection still there? So they made two tiny changes and wrote a whole novel on it...
Like the LStar change, don't see anything else in there tbh

- @BaldWraithSimp exactly, point system was't the main issue. demotion protection is the biggest issue and dummies don't want to admit it.
@WreckingViThey are enabling the stuck being to be even dumber now unfortunately. A stuck level 4 player will just push everything hoping the other players are higher rank.
@WreckingVi Ironically a part of the playerbase is the key reason we can't have nice things like rank demotion, If they added it people would just reverse boost ranked for easy lobbies.
Sometimes the solution isn't as simple as it may seem on the surface.
- @MandatoryIDtag what is the point of reverse boost? People use smurfs for that now - so why not. That will solve that - same issue but without smurfs at least, you will just get level 200, 300, 500 ppl in Bronze lobbies. Have fun.
What demotion would fix:
- ppl would not use account boosting as much
- ppl would think twice about what they do, how they play
- there would be a clear indication of their CURRENT skill level vs other players = no longer possible to get boosted or use some other easier ways to rank up and then just get stuck there for weeks (ruining game for others who just want to have decent games with random ppl)
- @WreckingVi 100% is an issue. it's even more obvious when solo queing and having to deal with hard stuck p4 and d4 teammates who couldn't care less since they've reached their desired rank
