From the description, that does seem quite likely. However, there is also a bug where some players are always promoted to the same rank they were at independent of wins, losses, and match based individual performance. In case this is another instance of that bug, I’m linking my post for those who’d like to read more about this issue: Comprehensive Thread Of All Top 500/Competitive Bugs. I put this thread under: Incorrect Rank Adjustment.
