Dropped 2 ranks after a 3 game winstreak

Right after a 3rd win in a row, I dropped from oracle 6 to oracle 4

You gained ELO (or Glicko or whatever) but lost ranks. Ranks are a (probably) normal distribution based on the distribution of ELOs of ALL players across the ENTIRE game, where your ELO is a hidden number you cannot see that goes up with wins and down with losses. What probably happened is that enough players who previously had less ELO than you now have more (even though you gained some, they gained more), and now you're in a lower bracket.

I've been playing every day for awhile. Unless they did something with rank distributions there shouldn't be a reason my rank jumps that much. I haven't been losing enough to derank at all imo.
