Indeed, there should be some net gain least from going 3/3. Even going 4/5 or even 5/6 with zero rating is disheartening.

Rating is so fragile to. “You happen to go 2/6? Welcome to the freefall, here’s -60 rating.”
“Oh you played a match really well after that and went 5/6?..rating unchanged”

Suggestion to fix the rating system in shuffle you’ll need to read the whole thing if you want the details, but here’s a small part of it:

But for you players:
Wouldn’t you like to know you’d always gain rating if you won at least 4 rounds in a shuffle? Downside would be that 3 wins would more often than not result in Rating unchanged, but depending on the maximums and minimums that can sometimes end up with a very small plus in rating as well, depending on MMR differences and your own rating.

It’d also get rid of losing huge amounts of rating when you only won 2 rounds, and so on. It needs to be slowed down and become more reliable, for everyone’s sake. This current system Blizzard is using now isn’t viable in the long run for the shuffle game mode, as you all should’ve noticed by now.
