De-ranking in Crystal Conflict is a horrible idea

Okay but you need no hands to reach Crystal so your argument fails

So 90 % of the pvp playerbase plays worse than disabled people or how is one to understand your comment? The majority never saw crystal but rather got stuck in platinum as far as i am aware but belittling the achievements of others doesnt make you appear superior in any way. It just makes you look like a douche.

You're 100% full of crap. Either you got carried or you were win trading. Then again for all we know, you could be using hacks too.

I busted my ass for two seasons and could not get out of bronze. 90% of the people in Crystal got carried and I have zero respect for any of them.

That is a bit extreme dont you think? Sure there were quite a few Traders and Cheaters but id place the numbers more like around 20-30 % based on my experience in Crystal and that might still be to high.

Speaking about my self I made it to crystal at the start of season 2, and you know what I did, I literally grinded matches, I was hard stuck in gold for quite sometime like a 4-5 days, then I started lucking out and made it to diamond with ease, then I stuck for 2 days in diamond and then lucked out and hit crystal, it was all RNG and luck,

Or maybe you got better grinding endless matches. Did that occur to you? Practice makes perfect and all that.

Nah can't say I "practiced", the current status of Crystal rank now is you can get up to 3400 crystal credit and then lose it all in a day if you get into a lose streak, basically getting bad luck and being matched with unbalanced matches because the matchmaking is acting up, good luck practicing that.

Again my crystal experience was basically reach 1400 credit, and lose it all down to 0, then go all the way up grind your luck (practicing more because this pvp mode is legit and balanced LOL) to reach 1400 point and then lose it all back.. yeah I don't think there is skill in there sorry.

Perhaps it is, but my tolerance for smug jackassery is at an all time low. I'm more than a bit tired of jerks who lucked into Crystal Rank telling me that I'm bad simply because I couldn't make a win streak magically appear. It's also well known that win trading is still happening.

It's not like I don't know how to play my job. The problem always comes down to the idiotic system of getting matched with people who don't try, or matched against people who are grossly overskilled. Leading to this ridiculous 50/50 crap which means I can never advance beyond Bronze because every win is followed by a loss. Given that, it makes the whole thing feel pointless and makes me not want to bother because I know I'm not able to advance.

So yeah, I'm a little bitter about it and if I get called out for being bad, which isn't true at all, I'm gonna respond negatively.

Not true based on what ? Your feelings ? Because if you can't make it out of Bronze you're trash.

Funnily enough, according to achievements data, approximately 50% of players who participated in CC ended in Crystal by the end of Season 1. The achievements for other ranks are much less common.
