I dont record my games so i have no evidence to not make it anecdotal.
I didnt claim that the flipping of difficulty was inherently true it was just something I observed in my matches. Nor did i also claim it was inherently true because others had the same observation/opinion. (Since were a bandwagon now)
If the difficulty of competitive matches in Overwatch is inconsistent within the same rank. And a lot or a little i guess since i have no statistics. But lets say for dhits (cant use the letter “s”) and giggles 1% or less of that of players from each rank experience this inconsistency. Then these 1% of players in each given rank are experiencing inconsistent match difficulty in their comp games.
Bronze-1%
Silver-1%
Gold-1%
Plat-1%
Diamond-1%
Masters- 1%
Top 500 - 5 players
When random people claim similar things. It should not be dismissed merely as bandwagon.

^^ This is my personal fav since there is no such law in the United States. Meaning boosting services are almost impossible to stop by Blizz.
_I am smurf and reasons why i smurf
These are just a few. Again i am not claiming my statements are inherently true. But rather pointing out that random people are describing a phenomena that they are experiencing. Which is worth a inspection in and of itself.
Imo better questions:
Why are random people reporting similar experiences?
If the match difficulty inconsistency is false then why are there reports from again different random people?
If the match difficulty inconsistent is true what can be done about it?
