its based on a system kindof like chess.
the game predetermines which team will win based on overall ranks in the team
if team a has 5x rank 5's on their team
and team b has 5x rank 1's on their team
then by the standard, team a is supposed to win.
therefore when and if they do win they get points to their rank. but a minimal amout seeing as how they were supposed to win.
and team b will lose points to there rank, but not many seeing as how they were supposed to lose.
now say team b wins. they will gain substantial points to there rank and even might rank up 2 positions because they were supposed to lose, yet won.
and team a will lose massive amounts of points to their rank seeing as how they were supposed to win, yet lost.
hope that helps
Honestly this rank system is proly the worse case of shit ive ever heard of. I think they should just get rid of it and turn matchmaking back to gears 1 style where it was worth playing.
