Edit 3/10/23: I got gold in 25 games winning 15 and losing 10. Last season I ended at Emerald 4 and at the beginning of the season was gaining 119 points for a win and only losing 8. A Friend ended last season at Copper 3 and this season he started out by winning 34 points and losing 21. This means it will be extremely hard for him to hit gold as he will have to win about 70 matches in a row to gain enough rp to get it. The new ranking system has a pretty crazy bias against low rank players in a way that the old system didn't. I will edit this Pinned comment if anything in the video changes. Other tips I didn't mention in the video but are helpful: 1. You MUST play with a headset. Sound is extremely important and if you are not using a headset you will be at a massive disadvantage. I would even say it might be impossible to hit gold without using one. 2. If you can use a monitor with a good refresh rate. When I went from playing on a TV to playing on a monitor I saw huge improvement and the game became much easier. There will be less of a delay and seeing things will also become much easier. And finally before anyone says they play support and don't need to get kills, this is just untrue. Opening a wall can be helpful but after the wall is open you still need to get kills, opening the wall doesn't immediately win you the game. Especially if you are solo queueing it will be very hard to play support and rank up, you need to become a fragger if you want to rank up on your own.
I began playing around 6 months ago and placed somewhere in bronze because I wasn't that good. In this season I grinded so much, improved my gameplay, put 100+ hours into this game and I'm finally at silver 1 (solo queuing) , I'm so close to reach gold 5 for the trophy but unluckily I seem to win 1 game and then lose 2 in a row, I get +35 for a W and -20 for a L
This has been one of the most helpful videos on R6 I have ever seen. I’m at the stage where I can get to gold easily and want to reach plat for the first time. This video has helped greatly, thanks.
Subscribed loved the video have been trying for ages to get to gold on my own with ransoms never get past bronze though any body on here still that wants to play
Question about the fresh lvl 50 moving into ranked - is the ‘starting skill’ always around 2500, or is it instead based on how they did getting to lvl 50?
Hi, great video here very informative. I have been stuck between bronze and silver for 4 seasons. Are you still playing the game maybe there is a chance that you can help me a bit?
It is buggy but some people are still able to pop it. It seems like you just have to keep playing and eventually you will get it. I will see if anyone has found a consistent way to unlock it and let you know
Hi, last season (Y7S4) I ended up in copper 3 at the last point of the season. This season (Y8S1) I keep getting around 25 points per win and lose 22 points per loss. For some lucky reason I got into bronze 1. I’m hoping to get to silver 5 before the end of the season and hopefully stay there until next season (Y8S2) starts. Do you know if I’ll get more points by winning and lose less points per loss next season (Y8S2) because I got a higher rank this season (Y8S1). Thanks for the help!
At the beginning of the season yes, you should be able to get back up to silver 5 fairly easily if that is where you end this season. As you get close to it though your points should start to even out again. (Unless they tweak how ranked works next season)
So last season I got to lower then copper 5 as a joke but this season i wanted to get the gold trophy for the platinum but can’t since I keep getting stuck at copper 1 and I’ve generally starting to give up anyoke can help me
Since you ended at copper 5 your new skill is stuck in copper now. My PlayStation is the same as my TH-cam name if you want to add I’ll try to help you out
@@dwightsarmy14 any idea how the ranks will get reset next season? Like do players keep their skill points and go again from copper V? also want to mention this video is really helpful and a lot of the tips are really unbiased and objective.
@@barackobama0101 In 2018 I think the trophy list hadn't switched yet so there was no trophy for reaching gold. It used to be a T-Hunt related trophy i believe. To get the trophy you need to reach gold after the trophy list was changed.

I like how you explained ranked 2.0 in detail, as a low skill player this shows why ranked 2.0 favors the very high skilled players vs the very low…
Yes I think if they don’t change how the ranking works you will see a lot of players stuck in low silver and below for the next couple seasons.
I might like to add if you do plan on trying to communicate to randoms/ teammates you need to learn the callouts
Really good video. I liked the information about playing headshots only in T hunt. Good tip.
Glad it was helpful!
You can’t do T hunt now, rip

Keep it up. After playing a lot of ranked I am only gaining 16 and losing 24

Thank you for the kind words! Good luck hitting platinum

Absolutely now, stuck for the platinum trophy
Same
I’m stuck in copper 3 I got to bronze 5 but lost that on a massive losing streak
Sorry to hear that. With the new system it can be difficult to rank up once you get stuck at a rank
Question about the fresh lvl 50 moving into ranked - is the ‘starting skill’ always around 2500, or is it instead based on how they did getting to lvl 50?
It will always be the same for a new account. The skill level is only determined by how you perform in ranked.
Pretty sad that my hidden rank is higher than my cosmetic rank. New system is wack but I’m still having fun.
Another question does turn off the network when it feels i'll lose does count as lost?
Yes, if you disconnect or leave the game it will count as a loss and give you a temporary ban in Ranked or unranked
@@dwightsarmy14
Thank you i appreciate the info
That Iampotato guy dies a lot
My level is 47 after 50 should i Focusing On this trophy or the other rank Trophies like Jack of all Trades?
Focus on getting gold before anything else. You will probably just get the other trophies by accident as you work towards gold.
@@dwightsarmy14 Thanks For The advise man
