I mean, you have low ranked people trying to do what they can to move up in competitive ranked and you have a guy going out of his way to lose so he can be the guy with rank 0. I can see why people would be angry. Luckily I placed at 58 and got to enjoy some of the best matches I’ve played when I queued. No jackass Read more
