So I endured sitting in multiple SS queues that were between 20 and 40 minutes long because I’ve been told it’s “very easy” to reach 1800 rating. Awesome, I thought. I first had two games that went rating unchanged. Then I had a good streak where I got 30-50 ratings per win After that, my rating plummeted as I had games where I lost 50-90 rating even after winning 2 and sometimes 3 rounds.
I’m okay with the rating gain, but I think the rating you lose is way too high. I like the idea of SS, but the long queues, big rating losses, and all the RNG involved is making me reconsider whether I should keep pushing in SS or not.
