Sorry but this is shady as all get out. I know some of these people frequent the forums. Care to explain? Because at this point it looks like you've been win trading.

Lmao they not wintrading dude its light party so its normal if upremade with the same ppl in ur team all the time that u have same stats. Are you a troll ?

The 4 that are rank#3 simply have only played with eachother in premade, if you look at other datacenters season1&2 rankings , you'll notice how this isn't uncommon. Although, they are always willing to accept any challenge for overall fun, practice, and synergy building.

So get a team together please.

Oh also they are streaming sometimes so you can watch them playing solo and party ranked if ya want.

I'd not be surprised if that was actually legitimate.

Consider: Party queue is dead. Last Season a person with a total of 21 games and 300 rating made it into the TOP 30!!! players. If you're at or under 200 rating, you cannot drop anymore. That's how dead the mode is.

I can easily see a skilled team camping the queue for a couple days and finding no real competition, only cannon fodder that quickly stops queuing afterward, making the queue progressively more dead in the process.

If I recall correctly, organizing matches via linkshell also is or used to be quite common - but members are usually switched around in those matches, because the point isn't to inflate rating but rather practice. That's how you occasionally get these highly rating (and game) inflated people in team ranking with no matching team members in sight.

It would look a little more suspicious over time if these kinds of scores stayed the same across days or weeks. But you're looking at 1 hour. They may have all played on the same team and won a game, hence the 100% win rate. I know for a fact that the matching algorithm pairs you with the same people more often than not because you're all close in score.

All of these #3 players doing premade only with same ppl they said that even on stream. So every stat is the same cause their premade is made of the same ppl all the time. It wouldnt be suspicous over time.
