How many battles are taken into account and how does time affect the weight of those battles? What about when players throw the battle or don't show up? Should the "win" be as meaningful? When a player doesn't show up, should their rank always go down? Maybe they were just busy but their skill is the same. Does punishing players that don't show up make the experience better for those in lower leagues? Should a players highest rank (over a period of time) be considered? Should a player in Kyber ever be allowed to drop to Bronzium? If their skill got them that high, could they ever be considered at that low a level?
Skill ratings are hard. I hope CG is looking at the data and considering how changes in the algorithm can make the skill rating better.
