After the major update, my account has been stuck in oracle 5-6 lobbies while my rank being way higher

[vanillasylv]

My account's core skill rank is at the moment Ascendant 2
The hero i played on the lobbies has the second highest Skill Rating

SteamID: 76561198441690719

Before the update i was getting ascendant 1-4 lobbies while queueing solo, but after the update i've been only getting usually oracle 5 lobbies, while also noting the other players ranks (after i've asked) are in oracle 5 to highest being phantom 1.

This seemingly doesn't really make enough of a sense of why this started happening after the major update, and i've not really been able to figure out what this was caused by

I have the same exact issue, my rank is oracle 3 but all my games are around emissary 5 if I soloqueue

Happening to me as well. Stuck at Oracle 6 because i can only solo queue into emissary 6 - Archon 3 Lobbies. Duo queuing with a friend at a higher rank slightly fixed this, but we could only get an oracle 3 lobby.

Me too. I am only archon but I got teammates that literally had no idea how to play the game which shouldnt happen. They felt like alchemists

Bump

Once again, sharing two more matches
Phantom 1 and Oracle 5

These SEEM to be happening with only high skill rating heroes, though, didnt have this issue under low skill rating heroes

This is annoying, my games are brutal stomp most of the time. Unless Valve fix this, the only solution would be to create a smurf account which I don't want to do. It feels unfair to everyone involved to have me queue 2 whole rank down my actual rank.

New thing i've noticed about this issue

This only seems to affect heroes i have under high skill rating, lower are fully fine

Bumping to report the same issue myself. Just went on a 13 game winstreak, stayed at ritualist 3 the whole time. My rank was broken before the big update, being stuck in low arcanist despite a 60+% winrate pre update, after old gods update it did move up to Ritualist 3 but hasn't changed since, playing 20 games and going 17-3. It's just getting boring stomping most matches. Steam ID 76561198132332621 , dev acknowledgement of the thread would be nice. Thanks!
