    Anyone know? Because from what I've seen, its makes zero sense.
    Played a few games, got legend, then dropped after a loss, then went back up after another win. I have ppl ranging from 1.7k(lowest i've seen so far) to 4.3k's(highest i've seen so far) being put together. How does this make sense? I can't imagine a 1k being placed in a 4k mmr game before, why is this the case now?

    Also, why does my badge achieved disappear when I quit the game? And nobody can see mine when we're in game? I remember they said that each persons badge will be displayed during picking phase... No, no they're not? This whole system feels very sketchy right now.

    Anyone able to make sense of this?

      have you finished calibration matches? if not thats probably why you badge is doing these things and also why you're seeing such a huge range. If you have calibrated then its just the normal, heres new content now give us a week so we can fix half the bugs and get it working like we intended.

          The part about the number seems the same... but some wierd shit happend with me...
          i calibrated 3.4k on my other account... and got Archon 5 after the 10 calibration matches..
          Them i played another game and lost.. so i played another one and won... and even though i just got back to 3.4k... i got Legend 1
          Makes no sense to me this...

              doing my calibration ytday , i was putting in a game against a archor & legend while my skill bracket is only high skill ... what the heck is this? seem like my team medu is also legend onward doing calibration ... wonder what result i get after calibration , but whose care ... can valve just stop matching some unbalance match ... game isnt balance at all

                my guess is that this will either get patched soon or its just something that happens right after recalibration that will sort itself out over time
