Me and my friend played all our placement matches today and won 6 and lost 4 my friend got gold and I got bronze, we both got around the same gold medals and both played a key part to the wins we got and tried out hardest but how come one of us got a higher rank than the other by 2 ranks and does your rank last season have to do with anything or is there anything we missing ?
Basically your rank is decided by your Match Making Rating.
MMR is a hidden number that says how good a player is. This is separate from your Skill Rating as MMR is hidden.
Now when you first start playing the game your MMR is decided by how well you do in quick play. When you first play competitive your stats and previous MMR will decide how you’ll be placed.
Once you have gotten a rank, you will get a different competitive MMR which bases your next rank on your stats and your previous season. Usually this is a few hundred sr from where you ended on the last season

Don’t read to much into it, if you are as good as you say, you should be gold rating with your friend in no time. If you play way better then everyone else you will lose about 10points and gain 40 on each loss/win.
They don’t…
