AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'm so excited to show off something awesome soon :) stay tuned friends drink water and eat delicious sandwiches
I will make absolute sure to eat delicious sandwiches and drink water. Thank you!
When will you let me out of the basement? Im hungry and thirsty
But I honly have non-delicious sandwiches!
Should we also go touch some grass?
I DON'T WANNA DRINK WATER!! YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!!
Ranked systems only have 3 types of players. 40% are people who you easily obliterate, 40% are people who easily obliterate you, and 10% are people of your skill level where you fight and it’s a great time for both parties no matter who wins or loses.
Edit: and apparently there’s the 10% that can’t do basic math, that’s the category I fall into
You forgot 10%, but i think that's the AFK ones.
@@Hyouhaku_B those are the bots who ruin it for all
@@Hyouhaku_B
I’d put an AFK ‘player’ in the easily obliterated category
Make ranked good again turn that 10% into 100%
you forgot the cheaters at the top 30% that are somehow not being banned
And remember: not only do you lose the rank, you also lose your sanity, so when you play again, you become like every other toxic player in the world where if your team does 1 minor mistake, they are pathetic plebians and must perish in front of you
In paladins, it is only by sheer willpower that I kept my sanity. Enemy team: 5 stack of friends using teamwork to ensure no fight is fair. My team: Trying to copy my suicide rush but not having my skill to wipe both of their healers and lay on heavy damage to the tanks, and solo holding against the team for 20 seconds. So they just feed the enemy points.
ah a fellow paladins hostage i see
@@blacklightredlight2945 Paladins is one of the worst multiplayer games. it goes for the "solo but it feels like teamwork" a bit too hard & allows any player, playing as any class, to go wrestle on the side-paths the whole match and never take a single step inside the gigantic radius of the objective
@@blacklightredlight2945 OMG I’m not great at that game but UUGGGHHHHH
Bro paladins its either your team is good or they are trash and feed the enemy points
This is why I will always choose the "Have fun :)" button, ranked multiplayer can just kill all enjoyment some days.
Every day.
Can be fun with friends and a team, bit requiring them to enjoy it in the first place kinda defeats the point
Same
Its you again... why are you stalking me?
Same, I avoid ranked multiplayer game modes like the plague
Have you just tried having fun WHILE playing ranked? Just a crazy idea I know but it can be done
First ranked match: *Congratulations!* you are better then half of the player base!
Second ranked match: *Congratulations!* you are disowned from your family and your grandma is dead.
Or it's like "Congrats, you scored rank Gold! That just puts you behind Platnum, Diamond, Veteran, Demi-God, God, and The One Above All ranks". So you're actually in the bottom 3rd of players.
rainbow six siege in a nutshell
You're missing the part where you grind back to diamond, then the season ends and you have to recalibrate, you get bad teammates for your calibration games and you have to restart from bronze again.
yep, in siege you get people who cant even shoot but then the enemy are all smurfs
This is so true it hurts...
what is the point of that? it always just makes playing ranked in the beginning of a season a nightmare, even after the beginning tbh, cus some people might still be "low level" after the reset
@@koolkiddo33 especially when your teammates keep quitting just because.
2v5? And you lost? You must suck, so the next game will be even worse. Git gud.
@@girlartist1105 i swear bronze is a pit, I have never get out of bronze one i get there. ( i am usually gold 1, this says a lot about the matchmaking)
The worse part is when they have bots in the early ranks to "make it more fun for the beginners" when in reality it just makes it so that you get absolutely no training when you're thrown into the deep end.
I remember Halo Infinite doing this and making me think I was hot stuff.
It's simply the saying "if you lose at goldfish, your gonna have a good time for a long time."
Playing against bots is basically glorified tutorial
I actually find myself getting destroyed by bots and shitting on actual players sometimes because the bots AI is so eratic.
Came back to fortnite for a bit after years, and I won my first game easily. My friend told me that I was playing against bots, and wanted to abuse the matchmaking with me to get loads of wins. For the next 20 or so games we would go undefeated and rack up loads of wins, until my bot matchmaking came to an end and we didn't win another game I ages
Meanwhile, Me: "holy shit I'm 98 in global ranking!!!"
*Playing a mobile online game that was released 2 days ago and has a player base of 98 people
Top 100 baby! WHOO!
Reminds me of when I played a PC game called cannon brawl, fun little game but never succeeded at building a lasting userbase. Last time it was active I managed to reach top 10 on leaderboards and I’m far from a hyper competitive gamer
I think it was AvP where in their PVP you'd get different classes by winning ranked & when you lost rank, you'd lose your unlocked stuff, was lots of fun.
Sorry, did I say fun? I meant WTF ARE YOU ON ABOUT!?!
Basically GunZ back in the old day, oh sorry, a smurf lvl 1 got a lucky hit on you? How about lost 2 level and can't use the gun you just spend 2 million game points to unlock because you're under level now.
AvPvP?
any unlocked weaponry in a game without decent matchmaking is a sign of a bad time about to be had
What's AvP? my mind automatically says Alien vs Predator but that cant be right?
@@JXHNDRX I believe it is.
Legit impressed at how when he pressed the 'ranked button' it was actually pressed. Impressive timing and editing
One hand to point to the screen with.
One hand to hold the camera.
One "member" to change the button image...
Those buttons have always been a favorite of mine since I realized it’s just the same oval put slightly over a darker version of itself
*Gets bronze*
Seems easy enough right? Time to grind to silve-
Smurf accounts: Allow us to introduce ourselves
*league ptsd*
Tell me why are you everywhere
siege ranked be like
Yep those bastard really unfair
Splatoon ptsd
A ton of wins slowly gaining you a chance of a peak of a hint of glory while a single mistake ruins everything you've accomplished and plunges you into obscurity feels like a metaphor for something I don't want to acknowledge.
00:21 I didn't expect the child screaming for the juggler, almost gasped with laughter.😂😂😂
League of Legends : juggler gap
Had a friend who would go like 50/5 and be stuck in Silver 2 for weeks in CSGO. By time the game finally let him into silver 3 after winning like 50 consecutive matches, he lost the next match and immediately got demoted to silver 2 again.
because Valve
The best way to rank up on csgo is to not play, won 8 in a row 30+ kills on MG1, lost 2 with 25 kills, got demoted go GN4, lost another 2 and demoted to GN3 (my lowest rank ever). Stopped playing for a few months, came back, first game put me at MG1 again, in like, 10 games I got LE, and soon got LEM. CSGO ranking up makes 0 sense.
@@batatadoce3025 it makes sense when you study the 3 ridiculous ways it ranks you up. The system is so fucking retarded like the best way to rank up is to not have fun and enjoy. But if you wanna learn the CSGO rank up system just watch Waroqls video on it
@@Wajze As far as I know, the more time you go without playing the more "volatile" your rank is, the game doesn't know in what rank you belong anymore. If you play many game in a short ammount of time, the game assumes you are where you should be.
I saw this somewhere, not sure if it's true.
@@batatadoce3025 it is true. The thing is that it's better to play one match every day/ every 2 day then 7 matches one day a week cause that tanks or increases (don't remember) your volatility witch means you will be placed with people with the same ELO/glicko/points so you rank up slower but the opposite means you will be playing with more people of different ELO/glicko/points so you have a higher chance of ranking up a d ranking down. So if you wanna have a fun session of CSGO but still wanna rank up it's not gonna last more then an hour.
I remember when I played OW ranked for the first time and got complimented by the other bronze players. It was a fun time, but once you go up in rank the toxicity increased exponentially
When more experienced players see you doing something that will cost them a win then they'll be mad lol. Such as going in an dying without any backup. And the toxicity stems from them basically being better than you and knowing more.
@@ShiroNyankotv yes and no, there are certainly teammates who are better than you. But there are also teammates who blame literally everything but themselves. You know the ones who get on the mic and curse literally everyone out.
@@ShiroNyankotv The ones being toxic 80% of the time are doing the least on the team
@@ShiroNyankotv There is nothing worse than being a high league/rank and then playing with low ranked friends lol. It's not even the fact that they are bad, that is perfectly fine. You're bad and you're prolly going to stay bad for a long time even if you work on it. That's just how getting better is. It's the fact that you can be like Diamond 5 while they are bronze 2 and they will argue every single fucking thing you say. Like you can tell them everything that's about to go down, it happens 1:1 exactly as you say, and they'll still argue you to the death. You hear this salt? That's how infuriating it is. It defies all logic. I made a rule that I never break. I never play any game with rankings with friends unless its co-op vs AI or ARAM or something where everyone is just 100% fucking off and not being serious. Low ranked people are low ranked for a reason. There is no ELO Hell, you're just bad and that's ok. Just have fun and stop pretending. I'm bad at alot of games myself and I have fun at them.
@@cohtivir6312 honestly that would be me
The screaming child really ties it all together
i always love it when i need to win 3 games to make up for 1 loss
You forgot about the part where you press the "have fun" button, and get put into a match against people that are 10x better than you and you can't play the game and get steamrolled.
I am silver II and in normal here are some of the people I have played against:
Psik0 (plat II)
Rock Jungle (Diamond I)
NíuNiu (Plat I)
69LikeFromSex (Plat I)
CupGin (Master I)
Feminismist (Plat III)
This is just recently. In Normal Draft
Edit: misspelled something
When that happens to me in public matches, and that’s the only thing I play since my main reason for playing is to have fun, I just back out and queue up for another match.
when u try to do fun in casual only then be murdered by literally cracked gamers
then you dodge that match and press the play button again only to be matched up againsta that same people 10x better then you
Thats probably because a lot of the really skilled players hate playing ranked too. So they just only play casual matches and its just full of super high level players all the time.
This is what happens when ranked systems are trash.
Gotta love that this is what casual games feel like now too since half of them put SBMM into the unranked mode. Shit is just ranked but you don't get to see your rank.
I just wish there was an inbetween for casual and ranked. One for just dicking around, one for the tryhards, and one for people that don't want to just dick around but actually learn the ins and outs of the game. I was dog doodoo at Smash 4 but I wanted to at least try occasionally.
casual, battle, ranked
the three genders
It's called: Community servers. A dying breed for sure, but nonetheless.
R6: siege has an “unranked” which is the same game mode as ranked but winning and losing doesn’t matter as much
Don't know about smash, but tekken 7 basically has that. It has quick play and ranked, but it also has player match. This is where you choose from a played hosted lobby type thing to generally play a winner plays again thing, where there's a lot less pressure than ranked, while more consistent experience than casual. Better if you find some people on a discord or whatever
Isn't low/lower ranked just that? But then again I'm reformed from fps/moba competitive games, instead playing fighting games where the lack of teammates means I can play the way I want without having to worry about it conflicting with how a teammate would want to play.
"have fun :)"
Is a lie, you'll be fighting the fifth ranked player's smurf account instead and end up in a youtube video
SaucyMuffins server in HLL comes to mind.
When I lost a match I didn’t even make bronze I went down to rust. My friend lost multiple and went further past dirt to just shit.
Ranked multiplayer doesn't test your skill.
It tests your luck, and it tests your patience.
Which 90% of the base players lack
The “Have Fun :)” and “Ranked” buttons really hit home for me.
The hardest part of ranked is always making it out of bronze.
Genuinely it's often harder to get out of bronze than it is to make it from silver to diamond.
It's because Bronze is generally speaking full of people who don't know what they're doing but don't know that they don't know what they're doing so often times the game is decided on a coin toss, if you're lucky you'll win enough coin tosses to get out of bronze but most of us aren't that lucky.
The kid screaming is the most accurate part.
Hot take: ranks in general in games can seriously harms the casual enjoyment of the game, although it gives you something to work towards, the problem is that because of that people lose sight of the fact that its a game, when ranks and rewards are on the line people get tilted and competitive
I love how you also included the pre-teen constant screaming into the video while trying to rank up.
The only ranked system I remember actively playing where you lose rank after losing was Mario Maker 2 and losing was like the worst pain I've ever felt in a mario game
I know that pain all too well. Trying to get to S+ rank was an absolute nightmare. It took me practically a whole year to get to S+ rank, but I eventually got it!
@@zacharylandrum4789 Congrats! I personally stopped at S rank because I got it on my 420th game. It was too perect to keep going
Time to lose all my points after 1 loss and win 1 point after winning

At least its not the system where a randomly assigned team mate can destroy your rank
Sometimes, all your teammates log out (or you don't even get teammates at all), and you are forced to deal with a squad of tryhards with matching clan-tags. That, or a cheater just comes along and screws you over
*Ranked matchmaking in a team-based game sure is fun :)*
Was really expecting the bar to go left, beyond the beginning. Lol
dont forget the part where the game purposefully matches you against players with WAY better records than you, so it's almost guaranteed that you'll derank, probably more than once, and then the game will allow you to play against people with similar records again, so you rank up again, and then the cycle repeats.
it's never "match me against the people in this rank with similar records to mine".
it's always "match me against the literal best players in the world that happen to be in this rank, because they started a 43rd side account so they dont have to play against other top players".
*And people wonder why Ranked players get pissed if someone even sneezes wrong*
I'll stick with havin fun thank you. :)
After almost 20 wins with an almost 2.0 KD in Halo Infinite trying to climb from Diamond 6 to Onyx, all it took was two losses to send me back to Diamond 5, absolute insanity. Took like 15+ wins with a 3.0 K/D to finally go from Diamond 6 to Onyx and I was never touching Ranked again, absolute hell to play. And don't even get me started on Overwatch. Words cannot describe how infuriating it is to hard carry your team every match and have that have zero impact on how much SR you gain / lose. Any ranked system where skill doesn't heavily impact your gains is total garbage.
Dude which game has a good ranked system? Asking for a friend
The problem with personal skill determining wins, instead of measuring your value to a team via wins/losses, is that support players will get shafted. Not that anyone cares about support players anyways.
@@blacklightredlight2945 how about instead KDA ratio. Dps done and heal done?
@@-El.Inexperto Not all support is heals/revives. Can be other things like buffs, debuffs, ammo and so on depending on the type of game.
Skill based matchmaking - I have lost 9/10 games but because I won that one match against a plat who was afk, I now get regularly matched against full diamond teams
All us gamers that have gone ( a little too ) deep into games have had those nights where it's morning and you're dying but the slaughter has been real and somehow you're still itching so you convince yourself you'll keep it up ... Then all the curses of you're victims catch up to you and you get absolutely shredded into a brief existential depression forcing retreat into sleep.
Oh come on, they're more forgiving than that. You tend to be allowed to get 3 defeats in a row until they completely restart your rank.
young man, these games are fine
young man, they'll blow your mind
young man, please listen to me
multiplayer is pretty fun, but it can't be always so
some games got systems that keep you safe
when you lose too fast
but back in olden days there was nothing but tough luck
(anyone who knows what song i'm using feel free to continue)
Not in ow
Napoleon: Total War is an old game with a very small pool of available players. It can take 15 minutes, 30 minutes, maybe even an hour to get enough players for a 2 vs. 2 match (!). And yet, I've seen people straight-up kick players for having "one star" from ranked battles. The last time I played ranked, the enemy player just set up a battery of 16 cannons on a flat field and won automatically. So I lost a star. Went from 4 to 3.
The ranked system of the game is actively killing the playerbase 😅
Ranked makes me feel like I’ve never known joy in my life.
I hate when you gotta grind until midnight to even get a chance to get this "reward" for ranking in a specific spot
like it literally just starts but SUDDENLY someone is already cranking big scores before you even start
recently I've been going through this on this my little pony game
Yeah and i get the bronze teammates and the enemy team has diamond players
Yep, I know how unforgiving the ranking systems are for most "professionally competitive" games are.
Don’t forget the torture that is climbing back up to your original rank after losing it
and re losing it and re climbing back and re losing it infinte loop
Worst part is that in games like LoL not only does losing set you back like 3 wins in terms of points you don't simply rank up once you've maxed out the points. You gotta win promo matches before you actually get anywhere.
For whatever reason promo matches are always when you get the worst teams imaginable, people going afk, leaving the game, going 0/8 in first 5 minutes and all that nonsense.
In games like that there's nothing you can do about having a bad team, even if you're support main like myself who's entire playstyle revolves around making others in your team better.
As someone who played supp/jung for 3 years, you have to focus on the people who are doing good and cry when no one is doing good. If you cry hard enough your team will feel bad and might be able to pull their shit together.
I can relate to this while playing a match in the original Splatoon on Wii U I ranked up to B+ in no time then I got a sucky teammate in another ranked battle then lost my rank all the way back to C-! Sometimes in Splatoon you get awesome teammates then next round later you get crappy ones.
That just basically every game with rank mode ever, one match you got a god as your teammates, reading enemies left and right, basically wall hack by how much he know people.
And the next match you got pair up with guy who can't tell left from right when hearing footsteps.
Literally just splatoon matchmaking in a nutshell
Don't bring up those dark times...
The damage up dark times.. lol
I've been playing unrated for so damn long now, it's been like 9 months since I've last played a comp game. Ranked is just there to give players a goal to grind towards (since we all love that sweet sweet game progression and bragging rights). Honestly I just keep hopping into unrated, getting better at the game and meeting wacky people having fun.
the "have fun :)" vs "ranked" buttons has big true-true vibes.
You rank up to the second highest rank, thinking that you can do something, and immediately get slammed into the ground by highest ranks...
Painfully accurate. Doctors promote this video to raise awareness and decrease the cases of accute brain hemorraghes in gamers
I experienced the opposite in StarCraft II. I did will in the first three randomly ranked matches so it placed me in Gold and then I really struggled against other gold players. I did not belong there but it took quite a while to get demoted...or maybe it just felt long a long while as my defensive gameplay turned every match into a slow motion trainwreck.
My friends and me fucked up our classification matches and got last place in bronze. Usually we were around the lowest gold rank or highest silver rank. Then we had a 20 game long winstreak.
Every time a new meta drops into a shooter i imagine it's like the colossal titan staring over the wall
Some games have too much OCD in the regular player base, that there's not even a way to play casual in multi let alone ranked. It's either the few irl friends you can talk into it, or just faffing about vs. the computer.
Ranked number 4 in the world.
*Loses once*
"Hey there buddy. Here's silver 5. Right where your dog water skills belong."
"Did I say silver 5? Sorry I meant back to qualification matches."
I play Yugioh Master Duel and I got REVERSE SMURFED.
80% of my opponents either surrender or connection issues cancelling the duel and just gives me the win on a silver platter. I've BARELY beaten any of my opponents with my deck and before I knew it I'm in Gold rank where everyone has insane gimmick decks that can either OTK you or just outright NOT LET YOU PLAY AT ALL.
Dude, when they had that massive bot problem about a month ago I went on a 12 game win streak just against bots, lost once against a human, then went on another 11 game streak before getting into Platinum 1 and never winning against a person the rest of the season. It’s like Konami is actively trying to make it impossible to actually play the game.
@@IHOMilk during this bot infestation I went all the way from platinum 5 to diamond without facing a single person
@@Gerisvaldo I wanna know how they ever even get that high when they always surrender or DC.
@@IHOMilk Apparently a lot of people just don't have the patience to wait
@@IHOMilk maybe bots playing against bots?
This is why ranked systems rarely use numbers, they think they will trick you, tho it's obvious that losing drains more points than winning gives by 2 times at best.
You forgot the classic "New Ranked season, I know you were DIAMOND last season after all that grinding, so lets put you in......BRONZE 1"
i feel like thats a stab at overwatch 2. meh even if its not that comment still fits
This has happened to me. My fring was in Grandmaster and we played games together all the time. I join up and do my 10 placement games the next season. He got Master 1 and I got placed in silver 5 despite the fact that we played every game together.
Yeah, it's really bad to "rank down" THAT much when you lose to a supposed "new player" who could be just a smurf account.
I'm going to go watch that video again now.
HOTS: "Hey there new guy! Here bronze 5!"
Me: "Okay that doesnt sound so bad." *Me unaware of the nightmare I undertook.*
"have fun" and "ranked" is the most accurate thing I've ever seen
This is upsettingly accurate. 10/10!
Don't get me started with free games you get the dumbest allys ever in casual that bring the whole team down and end up giving you a loss after loss
Forcing you to quit or play ranked to have better teams that at least can understand the game instead of going afk often
The most accurate part of this video is the only two choices being Ranked and Having Fun
That button pressing edit was CLEAN! 0:02
This reminds me a bit of the ranking in Starcraft 2, not really sure how they could mess their matchmaking up so badly but I ended up being a Gold rank player being matched up with almost exclusively high Platinum and Diamond ranked players(some silly ~85% of matches) and winning more than I lost.
Am I crazy thinking that if you are playing against a certain rank then you should BE that rank as well?
Anyways, this is way back when Starcraft 2 was released but it really put me off playing ranked since it didnt feel like the game knew wtf it was doing and was expecting me to constantly win against 1 or even 2 full rank tiers above my own before being promoted and just as in this video, a single loss seemed to counteract multiple wins for the actual promotion but I was still constantly fighting much higher ranked players either way.
Not sure if it makes things worse or not but later in a new 'season' I was instantly made Diamond after the 5 or so qualifying games... thanks I guess.
when i played starcraft ranked a couple years ago, there was a glitch in their ranked system and the first game i won with roaches, they calibrated me to master 2 instead of silver 4. i was so proud of myself until i realized it was a glitch
For me it's like: I win plenty of games untill I get to my Uprank match. In that particular match, I get like all the trolls, toxic people, people who certainly don't understand the basics of the game but are somehow on that rank etc. and that's the start of the losing streak, because after I lose just one single game, I lose every other game afterwards because of toxic players etc., untill I'm exactly where I started and I get good teammates again and start to win every game again..
Every single time 😅 It's like a 1% chance to have good mates in my uprank match.
I’m happy games add ranked, because whenever someone gets mad at me for being bad at the game or trolling I can just say “If you’re gonna take it that seriously go play ranked”
Depending on the game and how it's ranking system works, you can encounter quite a few different types of opponents. For the purposes of this comment, let's assume the hypothetical game in question allows you to lower your rank through consecutive losses, has a player level/gear system, and features 1v1 gameplay. There can be some overlap in the different types of players.
Type 1 - New player. These are almost exclusively encountered in lower ranks, and are somewhat rare if the game is popular due to the game already being saturated with players who know what they are doing. Everyone is this type at some point, however. One can typically stop being considered new when they get the gist of how the gameplay works and start being able to play at a slightly more advanced level such as being able to pull off more than one mildly advanced combo.
Type 2 - Average player. These are players who know what they are doing, but aren't rocking exceptionally high stats or skills. They play the game for fun, but it's probably not their entire life.
Type 3 - Laggy player. This is a player who lives far away from you, or who simply just has crappy internet, or both. Trying to fight against these players is a real pain, and you're more likely to run out of time than you are to KO each other if your stats are similar.
Type 4 - Intentionally laggy player. These are players who will play normally some of the time, but then will intentionally cut their internet for a second to lag themselves out of your attacks/combos.
Type 5 - Hacker. These come in two flavors: Super powered, and super nerfed. Super powered hackers are the most common, and are hacking simply to win every match. Super nerfed hackers on the other hand are hacking specifically to lose every match, usually with the intention of recording the footage and then getting other players banned, which makes them potentially far worse. On rare occasions, you can encounter a super powered hacker that is much more subtle with their boosted abilities, making it harder to prove their guilt.
Type 6 - Endgame player. These are players rocking max level characters with as close to the best gear they can manage to obtain, making their character as bustedly overpowered as possible. You typically cannot encounter these in ordinary fighting games, but many MMO's (Such as Elsword) and mobile games (such as Mega Man X DiVE) do feature gameplay systems that allow for them to exist. If you aren't rocking similar stats on your character, you might as well just let them beat you to get it over with. Encountering someone like this, you know that either the game is their entire life or they have a heavy wallet. Usually the latter, though if they also have mad skills then you can probably safely assume it's the former.
Type 7 - Deranker. These are players who could easily count as Average or even Endgame players normally, but who simply refuse to fight you. They are trying to lose on purpose so that their rank will go down and they can rise back up the ranks again later.
Type 8 - Favors. These are similar to Derankers, except they are losing on purpose for a different reason. Rather than lowering their own rank, they are letting you win to help you get yours up, or to help complete a daily quest, or etc.

The worst is when you do the "Have fun" and then you get a team of random people. The other team is an entire premade, on call with each other doing shot calls in some random game.

Me playing ranked as a silver 3:
Everyone else in the match being Plat 4:
Ranked matches are literally like gambling. You either get a good match with players your skill level or lower,
or you get a bad match where everything lags, kills don’t register, everyone has 20 more kills than you, and your mom doesn’t love you.
Can I say that I take pride in saying I never had a rank in Overwatch?
Only got one in Lucioball and that was enough torture that I get anxious just thinking about it
Ranked systems do not exist to ensure everyone gets evenly matched opponents.
Ranked systems are there to keep you playing forever.
Tbh I don' know about "have fun" button. I basically started playing ranked because I wanted to have fun and in the non-ranked games people would "report player" in the first "mistake" they spotted, then proceed to grief and leave the game right afterwards.
My hope was that in ranked games people would at least give their best to try to win no matter if they hate you or not - I was very wrong, but there was a slight difference, so I kept it up.
People wouldn't leave the matches anymore because they were afraid of getting a penalty for that, and if you can manage to mute them and keep your own sanity in check, in the end multiplayer team games can still be fun - when you are lucky :D

Something i personally don't like about smash ultimate. I don't know how the matching system in ultimate works, but I wish it matched people up by their win and loss rates instead of gsp, because as it stands now, i get to a certain point and it feels like i just ran into an invisible wall. I stopped playing ultimate because of this.
Edit: Apparently it does work like that, guess i'm just bad at the game.
That's how all ranking systems work. Because its not designed to rank players by skill and game knowledge. Its to inscentivese you to play all the time to keep engagement numbers high and que times low.
Just play 1v1 arenas, they’re so much better
Don’t forget about the system that will regularly reset EVERYONE’S RANK, making days worth of grinding completely pointless.
the reason why i hate doing ranked match......
Pokémon Go comes to mind here
Trust me, you get more dopamine crushing noobs that sweating with the good players.
Wow captured so perfectly and it's such a short video
Not much of a point in playing ranked nowadays, especially when there is SBMM in just about everything.
uh what’s sbmm?
Skill-based matchmaking
Quickplay is just ranked without a number but with less meta and more fun
In the ranking up and down department, I’d say Dead by Daylight has a pretty good system where you only rank down if you did horribly. Anything above that and either nothing changes or you rank up.
When you only play casual, so your internal mmr is insane and then you finally touch ranked: “I’m sorry little ones”
When you click on the "have fun" option but still get flamers, rage quitters, afks and smurfs fucking around...
Win 3 matches in a row: +15 points. Lose one match: -45
As a ranked player i can confirm this is 100% accurate.
The only game I play 'Ranked' is Dead By Daylight, where I literally don't have a choice, and the rank has no effect whatsoever on the games I get matched into
ranked changes you as a person for better or worse.
it's a test of your mental. it's a constant grind. allow me to share some wisdom.
does losing feel like shit? like a punishment?
- now you'll have to spend even more time to "progress"?
- it wasn't your fault, it was your team's fault or the game's fault?
does winning feel hollow and empty?
- you should be higher rank anyway?
- you'll probably get a forced loss streak soon?
does queueing make you feel anxious?
- what if my team thinks i'm bad?
- what if i don't perform optimally?
*ranked feels frustrating because games are terrible at telling you where you need to do better.*
people will judge and categorize you off your rank, and people will say your rank doesn't indicate anything until you are at really high rating. that's because ranking is terrible in games.
if you want to play ranked, you're likely looking to prove yourself. you will let a system define your value as a player from unknown metrics and be expected not to ask questions. don't you see how silly this is? you're playing to prove yourself, to become better at the game, and you don't ask questions when you are handed your shiny evaluation badge.
the key to playing ranked is to truly, innerly, not give a shit about the rank the system gives you. the game doesn't tell you where you need to improve. you need to figure that out yourself. that means you don't let a number or a badge define your worth as a player, YOU define your worth as a player. you will likely follow the dunning kruger confidence curve in this assessment.
at one point, you will feel like you are unable to assess what you need to improve on. then you get alternate views in on your game. use coaches. there are likely some that like to do it for free. but remember, it is your responsibility to assess yourself. do not take what is said as fact. coaches aren't always right. remember to ask your coach why they think what they think. why they say what they say. sometimes you will find they are trying to point you in a direction of where they understand the game different than you.
it is almost expected from ranked games to have some sort of replay system that allows you to playback the game and identify what you could have done better. use it. it is infinitely better than guides you can find on youtube or streams you watch on twitch. you are not categorizable as a player. your problems are individual. guides and streams cannot generalize you and help you.
as a general rule, you should never be spending more than 20% of your time reviewing games or watching guides. you need experience. the only way you can get it is by playing the game, and that is the only part of ranked that is a grind. practical experience in the field. watching things unfold before your very eyes. you will be able to identify when things will happen before they happen.
regardless of how ready you're feeling. you need to go into a game, and think to yourself: "i might lose this game, but that's okay, because i might pick up on something i can use in all my next games". games give you literal experience by playing them. in order to level up, you need to attain enough experience. higher levels take longer to level up in.
now you can see how your skill is a lot more complex than a shiny badge. you can go into a game and feel good about losing it, because you know it will help you in the long run. the more time you spend, the better. do not hold back because you think you can't perform optimally. literally, DO NOT warm up. warm up by playing ranked. warming up is short-sighted. losing is winning in the long run.
with all this focus on yourself, you'll be too busy caring about self-improvement to look at what your teammates are doing. it is the most irrelevant thing to look at as a player. they can be afk or trolling for all you care. there are so many other games for you to play in. you'll win your games on average because you know you are a good player.
you cannot rely on your team. and unless you are in the top 1%, your communication is not a priority. it is your job to either carry or be carried. you need to play like you are playing a solo game with randoms against randoms. if your play relies on your team to work, it is a bad play. if your play could turn out any way, and you end up getting help from your team, it is one of the best feelings ever.
that would be all. stay positive in your games, friends. at the end of the day, if you aren't enjoying it overall, you're missing the point of playing videogames.
