Could you explain why that is?
Second, did Diamond rank ever make it to this season?
Can you please respond to my question regarding elo? More often than not I will not gain any elo for beating someone, even if they are Platinum tier. What's the benefit of matchmaking in ranked if my rank doesn't go up? I was matched with a user who was ranked Platinum (around #150), won 6/6 matches, and my elo only went up for one win.
