Aurodium was squished routinely by 70 each season when I was in it. I used to be squished from A2-A3/A4 every season, in Kyber I have not moved tier due to squish I either sit in K2 or K3. Before and after the algorithm change. K1 is squished harder than K2 or K3 due to be further from the middle. It is not related to “try hard” as K1 players are not necessarily trying harder they may just have more developed rosters. But everyone in your rank will be squished the same, if you stay in K1 your rewards are the same so it’s only your perception that SR means anything that’s the issue.
