Trying to understand how ranked works??
So I've had a very quick read through the notes for the changes to ranked in season 13. It seems to me that it's making it easier for good players to progress but harder for average or below average ...

@Marge010 Honestly as said that sounds like what's needed. Unless you improve you should not be climbing.
But if you can get demoted easier then won't a lot of good players do that on purpose so they can play in lower ranked lobbies to get more kills?
- @Marge010 Some think that there will be a demotion floor. If there is not, what you mention will happen.
I don't see these changes having the massive effect others seem to think they will have. If the demotion floor works the way some think they've just shifted the hard stuck to a half tier lower and those people will still affect the same people. Unfortunately to me it just looks like they've made ranked more of a grind.@hayhor agreed. More points to get.

If they do that then they are going to just rack up RP and get promoted to the next rank again. I feel that there are going to be some hard stuck (S12 and before) D4 and P4 players that will rubber band between the respective D4 P1 and P4 G1 because they are on the cusp.
Last season I finished gold 3 and I've just checked my ranked level and I've been dropped down to bronze 4??
I thought we weren't getting dropped down so many levels this season??
Normally I would expect to be bronze 1 if I finished gold 3 the previous split as it was 1 and a half ranks you used to get dropped.
I've obviously not understood how this works!
