Just my opinion but I don't see the point in fighting players so far from your rank that you lose the same maximum amount (214) but gain less. For example if u were em 5 & lost to a gold 3 you'd lose 214, but if you won you'd gain 80. But if you fought a Gold 4 you'd still lose 214, but you'd gain around 50. It's equally un-beneficial for the person of the lower rank too, they'd be fighting someone much better than they have to so they could gain the same amount they'd get for beating someone easier.

It makes sense though: If a bad player fights a good one, and the bad one loses, they won't lose that many points because the were expected to lose. If the good player wins, they won't win that much because they were expected to win.
There's no such thing as good or bad in a kit with lava and 64 arrows.

A little irrelevant to what I'm saying. If a good player (Emerald 5) fought a bad player (Gold 3) the good player would still gain less and would lose more, but the good player would also gain more than he would from beating a worse player (Gold 5) but still lose the same amount which doesn't make sense to me. If you were only able to fight a player at the lowest rank where you could lose 214 that system would still work but it would be fairer since a Gold 3 has a better chance at beating an Emerald 5 than a Diamond 5, but would gain the same amount & the Emerald 5 will gain more for beating that Gold 3 than going against someone worse and being able to lose the same amount but winning less. Idk I stopped caring anyway

Basically, if you lose to someone with less rating than you, you don't deserve the rating you have. It doesn't matter if they're silver 1 or gold 3; if they're worse than you and they win, then you don't deserve your rating.

Blame the people who didn't like the s13 mmr system.

I get what you are trying to say but your explanation is kinda dumb.

So you cant lose to an Emerald IV with an alt with Silver II upgrading if you are Gold IV? That's not a reason. Badlion can lag. You can lag and the opponent WILL do the ghostkill obviously, everything for gaining 100 stupid points. Or simply you can have a bad day and playing worse. This stupid game has so much random things to lose, but connexion is the most important

I'm curious, this is one of the things that has always bewildered me about the Badlion community, and I'm mildly curious as to why there's such a strong preference for melee?

I'm not going to pretend I'm a god, but based on what I do know, bows seem to be a much deeper game than melee, particularly factoring in unfortunate mechanical effects such as jittering and ping. (Jittering with aim does take some skill, and a lot of effort but long story short, I can't jitter for medical reasons, making this an extremely obnoxious effect from my perspective.)

I honestly would love to be wrong here, but melee seems to be a rather simplistic system, especially in PotPVP such as Nodebuff. (Archy did bring up an interesting point to me regarding timing on another thread of mine, but I would be both very impressed and surprised if there are many people who can do better with perfect timing than jittering.)

Again, I would love to be wrong, which is why I'm asking, but this is just my 02 as it stands.

(Also, pet peeve subject here - As to saying there is no skill in bows…frankly, it takes as much skill to bow your opponent as they have skill to fight back with. This is something of a pet peeve of mine, in all honesty. In Build, you have the same gear, so there is no excuse for someone consistently landing more shots than you. Most people I've seen call others bad because of bowing are pathetic with a bow themselves, and latching onto an excuse to protect their ego. Lava I dunno as much about since I've had mediocre luck with it, but again, I mean, you have lava as well so use it.)

It gets worse when you get really high and it takes time to queue people you get 13 from em 5s and 13 from bronze 5s so whats the point of queuing a em 5 if u can just get a easy win
