Hi Fellas

Here is a bit of a lesson in making a Lobby to go Competitive matchmaking.
Study the picture closely. We created a lobby of 5 "friends"
 It may be good to play with friends but if they are of high rank it can land you in some right SH*T.
It may attract some seriously good players in to rain on your parade.
I do not recommend this method one bit.

Fill your lobby with people of a similar rank as your own it may not turn out to be so painful ;)

That's weird, even with the LEM and Supreme on your team you shouldn't have been matched up against the ranks that you did. Unlucky dude.

Yes you are in there Sli :)
On this occasion it didn't have that effect. (Derank)

Playing against that standard was my beef I just got my ass kicked from pillar to post.
It was quite a relief to see their ranks at the end of the match because I thought they were all cheatin baskets.
The MM system did seem to get it wrong big style that day.

I have ranked up and ranked down when playing along side you......so win some lose some so to speak.
Its great fun to play in your mixes the banter is the best thing between you and your friends it makes me smile.
Unfortunately it dosnt make me play any better :(

LOL welcome anytime matey, I just don't seem to get to play lately :/ I've had 2 hours in 3 weeks as I got fed up with mixed up ranks, so thought I'd wait till it all settled down, the last few games I've had have all been vs Global/SMFC with DMG and Eagles on my side it got quite frustrating :s

Question??

I'm now rank 10. Is that silver? or is that?... any help. I don't seem to get this things sorted out.

I can't seem to get above silver master now since the ranks have changed :( I was at nova master for ages, and if anything my skill has improved :sideways:

Method-Man

to be honest because of the sudden change in the ranking system people left right and centre getting de-ranked all i can say i keep with it and it will balance out again then u will rank up to what you should be

They made the upper ranks smaller, everyone got pushed down accordingly.
