It’s also worth noting that if you play with someone who’s one or two ranks above what you are, you may rank up quickly that way.
How to fix the issue
Well, the most common way to fix this as mentioned is to play with people within your rank. If you’re in the first few ranks such as Bronze, you may have an easier time finding matches in ranked since thecut-off point is Platinum. However, if you’re inIridescent and the Top 250, that’s when things become challenging since the pool of players gets smaller.
With that being said, even if you’re Iridescent, you also may have an easy time. Mainly because the gameforces you to play with Crimson and Top 250 ranked players. So, you might not even get hit with this label at all once you’re high enough.
