They could fix that by allowing you to derank, but I'm guessing most people wouldn't like that. That's a way in which the system is actually kind to players trying to advance. You can't be knocked back from certain milestones even if your winrate shows that you kind of should be.

I'm open to the idea of reducing the number of risers in the lower tiers though so that players who legitimately have the skill to advance don't get stuck there for so long.
