I was d3 with 80% winrate last season, did my first placement match, everybody in that game was d4-d2 in the current season, was provisionally put in gold1 for whatever reason >:D and now I could theoretically duoq with people who are in silver and have actual silver MMR because gold can duoq with silver even though the MMR difference would be insane and the games would be a complete clusterf*ck

Fantastic system

Because it will show the flaws of their matchmaking system. With the current system, if the two teams average rank was so far apart, it's easy to cover it up with "Both teams has the same hidden value (MMR)". But if people can actually see that value and there is a big mismatch, it will not look good for them.

So Rito is holding me back after all
