Why can't we derank?
I'm trash tier. I'm belong in high silver and below gold. I managed to get to gold and I'm getting DESTROYED. I haven't gained a single point in almost 20 matches to give you an idea of how bad I am....

Changes for that should also be rolled out asap (imo ofc) cause people are going to rush to plat and try to sit there- but soon realize it's a mixed bag
After watching Shroud being unable to rank up from Platinum I to Diamond IV last night, I don't think that would be a good idea.
He played with WiKe and Dez (both Diamond) and spend several hours tryharding, yet stagnating. And that guy is "above average" compared to e-sports pro's.
@Wingmannedbro I see what you're saying, but these numbers take time to tweak. I can see how complicated it is, and this elongated equation of how great ranked would feel after cheaters are gone or done cheating is important- Apex in it's purest form; which is why they had to implement ranked first.
It's ultimately up to them- and they're fortifying the Apex team. So I trust them, i think a lot of progress is coming in s2 for the players that waited ❤️
