I LOST games, and went UP in rank.

I LOST games, and went UP in rank. WTF?!

So I was Emissary, and after having lost almost every game I've played, now I am somehow Archon 1?

I was ALREADY in a rank well above my skill level, and now it looks like I'm rising even further, despite LOSING the most recent games?
What is going on?

Rank is counting in ur impact in the game (damage, kills, souls, obj damage)

So it is possible to lose a match and gain rank?

How can your rank go up? There has only been 1 week of ranked, it doesn't update until Tuesday

Finally! This is a long overdue change!

I lost 18 matches and won 9 last ranking week, my rank is phantom II, so win/loss if it affects the ranking it is not that important

Win/Lose will not affect MMR Calibration, what we have now as "Ranked match" is different from real rank games it's just a calibration loop that happening every week

I gained rank for two games I got discoed form when haven internet issues once. I was in each for like 3 min.
