I hate valorants ranking system, its so hard to promote from each rank, you need to be top fragger just to have a great chance in promoting ranks. Riot lmao fix ur rank system.

External link →Ye apperantly if ur game score is close, such as a 13-12, even if it says greatly increased it barely counts and is less than a normal increase in a 13-0 game. It actually says it when u go to see all the ranks.
As has been suggested above, please capture Match History screenshots when referring to extreme examples not only because it'll help being able to dig into what occurred but it also makes it hard to discern exaggeration :P
If you consider a given rank to be a sliding scale from say 1 to 100, with 0 being a demote and 101 being a promote, depending on how grounded your rank is (first game vs 100th vs how long in rank) there is going to be a variable number of positive games required to climb out of the rank. Not all account/player situations are equal.
"I lost 2 games and got demoted" vs "I won 3 games and didn't get promoted". If you were say ~5 into a given rank and were well grounded by this point, then its not really a surprise that you didn't get a ~96 increase in ~3 games or saw a ~6 loss in ~1 game. Obviously loose math, but trying to give vague examples to vague scenarios.
Similarly "I went 50 and 17 in a 13-12 game and got called a cheater"; there's more factors and consideration than "player had good game, throw them a promote", and a 13-12 result is a close game that will play into those considerations.
Gradual wins and consistent performance will get you promotions. Gradual losses and consistent lack of performance will get you demotions. Being spotty between the two will have you bounce between the given sliding scales of a rank and may see you go up and down depending on your average performance.
I wish you luck on your climbs, and hope you see the promotions you're chasing but ultimately just focus on winning by playing your best and I hope if nothing else you're having competitive and enjoyable matches as you go. :)
Yes ofc, I do only focus on trying to get wins but not knowing where u are on the scale/thinking ur right at a promotion and not getting can get some tiresome after a while and the when u lose those couple of games that get u demoted it is rly rly annoying. I've seen this in many places, they should 100% add a count(? I cant find the right word) for ur rank so ull know where u are just like there is in LoL
It's definitely on our radar, and we're assessing options to address the confusion and frustration that's currently found through the lack of visibility. Please bare with us whilst we iterate and hopefully reach a point that resolves your concerns.
Thank you so much! I have actually heard that the ranking system is really woerd rn cuz the guy that was in charge got former or something, is this true? I was just wandering :)
An unfortunately seeming frequent but still ultimately false rumor from a quote taken out of context; we've a fully staffed and dedicated team constantly working on our ranked systems each and every patch, have been doing for years, will be doing for years more :)
