Kyber 1 Shrinking?

I called this after the first season and at the time supporters of this system claimed the shrink was just to keep the division sizes constant. Here we are.

I don't mind or care anymore, I'll always be somewhere in k1-2-3. There comes matches sometime that's neck to neck which I enjoy...rarely. I'll take that and make do.

Haha dito.

The squish does not push people out of kyber, down to aurodium.

Here are players in k4 and k5:



They got an increase in points from the squish.

The squish happens to everyone in a league, and pushes them towards the middle of division 3 of their league. The same points get applied to every player on a given skill rating. The players around you do not get changed by the squish. Your matchups are unaffected by the squish.

If you are near the boundary of your division you may get moved. Some div4 and div5 players would have been moved up.

It doesn't nullify your wins, as your score is only used to compare you to other players, all subject to the squish too.

I was in Aurodium 3 for quite a while. If what you say were true, I would not have lost skill points before last GAC started (was in A3, my SR got squished)





Before this season started, I was in A4 and got squished again




According to you and others, I would have gained points pushing me towards 3 instead of losing points.
Also I think those graphs speak for themselves.
I lost more rounds than I won, I am now the second season one division lower, so 50/50 doesn't hold up either, which makes sense because the system gives me opponents that should be "winnable" after losing but if those accounts are still bigger, because they dropped aswell further, the theory is disproven by reality.
