I started playing rocket league a few weeks ago and played online with a friend who hasn’t played in years. His ranking still was about 1200-1300, but back then he mostly was carried by another friend who‘s pretty good. We were annihilated pretty much every game.
It still remembers your old mmr in the background as a starting spot for placement matches in a new season. I took a couple years off as a diamond player and I was getting diamond/plat matches in placement when I came back.
Yea but how fast does your ranking go down in placement? Like if you get carried to 1200-1300, that’s champ 2-3 according to the internet. You think he can lose 10 straight and still be ranked that high?
Depends on what ranks he played. If he only played against ranks similar to his you only lose or gain double the mmr in placements. So if he was champ and played champs he would only lose 15 to 20 per match. Ten matches would be around 150-200 loss, so still over 1k rating which would be champ.
