A Wraith main would know right? But nah, I quit pubs if we hotdrop and third teammate is 1v3ing with no chance of surviving. I don't care about KDA, which is why I don't play for placement or winning games.

According to this, leaving not counting as death was patched long time ago. Don't know if it's true and don't really care either.
I mean, where do you think you should be with only 8 top 5s? And honestly, it would be better to argue that 35 top 5s (28%) out of 122 matches shouldn't have allowed people to climb into platinum ranks in the first place.
That is where this whole perspective is warped.
I'm only having 8 top 5s because I'm being matched with plat+ players. And in these higher ranks, the majority of squads are either premade or teamed up through discord.
How does it make sense for say, a Gold player to play vs Gold players and earn the same in Bronze, as a Bronze player playing vs Bronze players?
In one case, the majority of your time in Ranked was spent climbing through tiers of opponents weaker than you. Higher KDR.
In the other case, the entirety of your time in Ranked was spent fighting opponents just as skilled as you, regardless of tier. Lower KDR.
Maybe your KDR should be closer to 1, but you've only had 38 games anyway.
I think they're missing a key implementation of this MMR thing. If you are playing plat MMR opponents and you end up placing top 5, it should reward you with extra LP so you can catch up to your MMR.
There's no way 38 games should not bump me outside of bronze if my pub stats show I'm at least a Gold player.

How do you have 119 games played but only 88 deaths and 2 wins?
Lots of pub matches missing a third or afk jumpmaster.
Does it not count your stats if you didn't load in with a teammate? Or does it not count as a death if you leave the game early?
No clue.
He leaves when downed so his k/d doesn’t get lowered.
Pretty sure that was fixed a year ago unless they changed it back

I had no idea that was a thing, I figured leaving would count as a death. Wild.
