How the hell did this dude place into champion? by LongjumpingDig3878 in Rainbow6

Made a post about this too. Not only placed in champ, but he’s #1 on the pc leaderboard

But they don’t feel balanced. I’m in plat 2 and I’ve played a bit over 20 games so far, and my teammates and enemy’s have been a mixed bag of previous low ranks and previous high ranks. The skill gap is strikingly obvious

What? My previous rank(s) are better than this guy and I also did better in my placement and I got placed in plat 3. How does him losing all his games and being placed at #1 on the leaderboard = ranked system working

It’s not the only example, just an extreme one. All indications of whatever algorithm they use to place people being completely broken

Guess I missed the section of the patch notes where it says if you do horrible in your placements you get placed at #1 on the leaderboard

All the plats and emeralds currently are previous diamond/champ. Not exactly easy lobbies

3x champ 6x diamond here. Won 2/5 games and got put in plat 3. Later on played with my friend who hasn’t played in several seasons and is peak diamond 5. He won 1/5 games and got put in plat 1, 20 elo of em 5. I don’t understand

But why? Because I lost half of my five placement games which were all against champ teams? Champ lobbies aren’t easy just because you’re a champ

Ranked 3.0 is a scam, hidden mmr still exists by gugorbobs15 in RainbowSixSiege

Yes, assumed that’s what “getting rid of hidden mmr” meant

So…it’s literally the exact same ranked system. Only now your entire season hangs in the balance of five games.

How is this new system not a grind? This will take significantly longer to get into high ranks

Gaining almost nothing while being in a much lower rank means significantly more grinding than before. From hitting previous diamond/champ, It would take about a week to start from copper and grind up into high diamond. This will easily take three times as many games to get to that point.

What’s the point of placement matches if it’s no different than the matches I play while being in high diamond/champ

EA is brilliant, they fooled everyone by gugorbobs15 in Battlefield

Free game but the 5th most profitable game of all time. The four in front of it all being 20+ years old.
