Man, I love ranking up from Gold 2 to Gold 4

Imagine, you’re sitting in your chair, and you’ve been grinding since yesterday.

You won many games 5 out of the 7 needed to rank up, so you get up the next day and play more. You win both games in a row and are EXSTATIC to rank up, you give yourself an extra minute to take it all in before hitting “continue”

You hit it!

And your entire SOUL leaves your body when Gold 2 disappears and gets replaced with Gold 4…

I can admit I was messing around a lot between the two days lost a few games no doubt… but a 2-tier demotion

In my records (roughly 15 hours’ worth) I have 3 wins and 2 losses that’s a 1.5/2 ratio not great but that’s only with what little info Overwatch will show its players about their own games.

They give you no explanation for why you get demoted. There’s no “cheater was detected Sr was reset” or “toxic behaviour was detected Sr reset”

so WHY, WHY WAS I DEMOTED 2 WHOLE tiers in less than 24 HRS.

btw my endorsement lvl WENT UP when I logged in this morning.

aslong bronze 5 is mixed up with gold/plat ore even higher nothing makes sense.

having dps flicking every shot looking like a aimbot (no it is skill) and having in the same spot a baptiste not hitting a single heal nade.

There is no way people should play together on those skill gaps, but ofc for the playerbase and their auctioneers it is more money as more people play.

Yeah i got my 7th win yesterday evening and went from gold 2 to gold 3. Im so over this garbage game.
RIP OW1 :headstone:

I agree the skill margins between players often DPS is too large, finishing a game where one of our dps using bastion then junk got 7 elims and 5k damage, the enemy healers both had over double both stats let alone their tank and dps, you can’t carry that gap in ability, certainly not as a support not anymore. Well, moira maybe but eww
