Damn , that ' s a bit one sided . The War of ~~ Strife ~~ ggez , Deaths 87712264 With that kd ratio these gobbos aren ' t getting into major league any time soon . <| sep |> In the tunnel near the end of the second island . <| sep |> The idea for a balanced ranking system is that as one person goes up some X ranks , another person goes down X ranks . We can ' t have everyone be able to go up because then we get SR inflation , which we don ' t want because that makes ranks meaningless . It ' s not pushing the problem down the ladder , the reasoning behind a SR loss to punish the player for leaving . It ' s coupled with an ever increasing ban to further punish players who might not care about SR . Showing mercy and getting rid of the SR loss would allow the winning team to all gain ranks , but the loser doesn ' t move . It might not matter on a case by case basis , but if we scale this infinitely large then the net change would be people moving up without people moving down to replace them . It would also be gamed by people using smurfs to purposely leave and take the SR loss allowing their main accounts to not lose SR . TLDR , everyone would be in the higher ranks and no one in the lower ranks , making the ranking system useless
