I'm glad to see there are others who feel the same way about the state of CC. If it was 40hrs of pvp or 200hrs of some other menial task for the same reward I'd be doing the other task at this point to save my sanity.

By no means am I the best and I've had my share of mess-ups. There's definitely a gap between the top and bottom. I wont name drop but there's certainly some at the top who I'll recognize as talented players and others who after being paired with repeatedly has me questioning how TF they are ranked the way they are. More often than not my Diamond/Crystal matches are a back & forth tossup that I've won more often than lost. It's the Plat/Diamond mix games that repeatedly drag me back down since thats largely where the RNG teammate factor comes into play.

Perhaps its because there's not a large enough player pool to help stretch out that gap, but the problem players seem to repeatedly rise up to then drag others back down with them and this process repeats.
