No matter what direction i look at 50/50 winrate it means that the system will do its best to cripple you one way or another.

But how can it? If a player is apparently much better than it thinks they are?

@gauron-21973

Lets say that you are 2v2 in a new competitive match. You have 4K sr and your teammate has 0, your enemy is two 2K sr guys it doesnt sound fair that you are teamed up with someone who is literally worthless but in the eyes of the system its fair because you are on avarage 2K team sr so the 50/50 ratio was met.

This is why you cannot queue with people more than 1K SR on either side of you (or 500SR if you’re Diamond+). So stuff like this cannot happen.

@gauron-21973

your avarage but well performing silver team will fight with high gold guys. If you win in that the system will just add it up that you need harder opponents to even out.

If you lose to high gold players as a silver, you will only be lightly penalised. If you win, you’ll be highly rewarded with SR (as long as you performed well in the game). But if you’re actually a plat player with a silver rank, you will beat gold players (because, you’re better than them) and be highly rewarded with lots of SR because the game thinks you’re only silver. Thus, you will climb quickly.
