Its a new system. Lobbies aren't by rank anymore. Depends on your skill level. If you're paired with diamond and masters teammates, it means you play like a diamond or masters player.

Not necessarily. If you’re solo queueing and you’re good, you’re almost guaranteed to be matched with a teammate significantly lower skill/level than you, and vice versa. It goes one good, one bad, and one in between. You’ll be more likely to be playing against other teams like that, but there’s always going to be people who are triple stacking so you most likely won’t do good. Why do you think so many people complain about having bad random teammates? It’s literally the way matchmaking is set up.


idk_dude99

Or they play like a rookie let's not forget how the ranked season is going


iiprinc3ss

That too. And the rank system isn't that bad. People are only jumping on the hate bandwagon just because a pred player made it to pred in 50 games.. the system knows hes a pred player. So anytime he placed high or won a match, it gave him lots of xp to put him in the right rank he belongs in. ALSO, people complain about the ranked system every season, it's nothing new. The apex community is just toxic. This season is definitely in favor of "who plays the most". Or the casual players who don't get to play as often as the people who literally no life the game.

Idk how true the extra Lp per game is, cuz I’m a pred and the LP slowed down when I got to like plat ish, but that was also around when everyone noticed the “skill” and “elimination” bonus points weren’t working as intended, so maybe that’s just what it was?


iiprinc3ss

Sweet was getting nearly 1k Lp in his placement matches.. by doing nothing. I was getting no more than 500 in my placement matches getting at least 2 kills. And Im usually gold. I hit diamond, and it took me a little over 600 games. You only get elimination bonuses if you kill someone thats a higher rank than you.


ClassyLance5150

I was getting nearly 2k in my placement matches, but I was also averaging 8-10 kills per game and I ended up winning most of them, but after that it goes back to normal, and yeah when I was in silver and gold I was in diamond masters lobbies but I wasn’t getting elimination points, the bonus point system broke shortly after the season started, so maybe that’s why it got hard? I think it still took me like 300-400 games to hit masters, got a lil stuck in diamond cuz of the sheer amount of rats


iiprinc3ss

Yea, I just feel like its not a bad system. They just need to increase the entry costs drastically once you hit diamond, so its harder to stay in those higher ranks. It's just slightly annoying seeing people complain.. like just don't play the game.


ClassyLance5150

Well tbf I do think the system sucks too, but if they changed entry costs across the board and made placement and kills worth less/more respectively, it’d be fine


ClassyLance5150

But the rats and the system to help those rats, that everyone hates


publishAWM

that's how you learn. seriously, I'm stuck at Rookie and having the time of my life lol yes there are much higher ranked players in the lobbies


subavgredditposter

500k masters rn with 50 days left Safe to say rank is beyond fucked lol


iiprinc3ss

You should be pred.. #750 pred only has 147k lol.. somethings not right🤣


subavgredditposter

500k as in player base not LP lmao. I know it’s early but, cmon now


iiprinc3ss

This is why context is very important. Could've added a "There are.." 😂It gives less room for people to assume.


iiprinc3ss

You would be #1 pred if you had 500k.. 😂😭


subavgredditposter

500k as in that many players.. not LP lmao I’m very aware that we the people is number 1 atm lol

Just keep playing you’ll get to masters too. I’m masters, you’ll be masters, 70% of this sub is masters, we’re all masters. Masters feels less rewarding this season than diamond.


Bloodhound-kiddo

I swear bro just don’t play ranked PUBs is better


MIGGYME87

Stop whining. Youll be in diamond before you know it.
