Try getting Plat on warrior.I play MCH in CC now and for the past 2 seasons have reached Crystal. I haven't done much once I got there but I enjoyed the challenge of getting there.
Now - I can't get out of Gold 4. 2 wins - into 3 losses consistantly. It's ridiculous. Being matched with bronze and unranked players who decide running in and suiciding over and over is their best chance at success. Those levelling jobs they have absolutely no idea how to play. Not using LBs nothing.
This matchmaking is awful. SE need to consider removing levelling from RANKED play. Casual 100% should have it. Why are golds being matched with Bronze and Unranked? It's insane.
Rant over. I used to love this game mode now I really hate it.
I'm am sorry you're no longer enjoying CC. I'd suggest either a break, a change of class, or taking winrate less seriously - there's a reason it's not officially tracked. You already spiked into crystal, after all, so the rewards won't change.
To be honest with you - I didn't take the winrate seriously until this season and I've been banging my head against this gold rank. It didn't feel anything like this during season 1. The odd game that I actually get into a gold/plat split (as opposed to the only gold amongst a bunch of bronze and unranked) - I really enjoy - it's the team fights, people being aware of whats going on, priority targets etc. I don't even care if I'm winning or losing. The games are fun.
The bit that's taking it away is the fact that when you're put in groups of people who clearly don't have a clue. I don't claim to be amazing and I only stated the fact I got to crystal in prior seasons to illustrate that I have at least some understanding of how to play. But, I just think it's crazy that people are being put in groups with people essentially 3 ranking brackets below?
I'm definitely going to try the advice of yourself and yaba_gabagool to try a different job and see how that goes.

I wouldn't take the win rate too seriously. There's a reason why they took that out. Regardless, you're better off on working on survival and putting out the dps numbers while you actually have a full team. With the star system being the way it is I have to assume that majority, if not everyone, is climbing with a negative win rate. Obviously not true, but I'm using that logic not to get so upset over losing.To be honest with you - I didn't take the winrate seriously until this season and I've been banging my head against this gold rank.

I think matchmaking is currently like this since it's not possible to get demoted out of platinum. I think it was SE's solution of trying not to kill off the lower queues. Regardless. I don't believe in gold being thrown into bronze rooms. I don't believe in silvers being thrown into platinum rooms.
Regardless, it's obvious that this season is going to require a ton a patience from everyone. Hopefully you'll decide to push into platinum. I'm pretty certain that you'll enjoy your games once you make it there![]()

Highly recommend putting it down for a bit/taking a break for a bit if you feel stuck, I just started a week ago, hit diamond just to drop all the way back to plat 3 because of poor playing, tilt and some interesting matchmaking (getting silver and diamond in the same match) so I’m taking a break xD it’s supposed to be fun, not TOO stressful


Try another job, take a minute and look at your total wins, take a break and play something else for a while. I get bent out of shape about bad matches but when I look at overall wins, I've improved each season. You might just need perspective.
I'm also 99% sure that the game contains a hidden MMR, because being on a win streak in plat gets you vastly differently ranked teammates than being on a losing streak in plat gets you.

Oh for sure. Being Plat 1 and one win away from Diamond puts you in an entire Crystal lobby, it's quite interesting lol
It's kind of hilarious watching former crystal rank players complain about the rank system now when it's been stacked against me from day 1.
