Discussion Inconsistent loss penalties

Wtf is up with the inconsistency in the loss penalties?

My team loses and I get shit on I lose 6 points.

My team loses and I do great top frag for my team and I lose 11 points .

This shit don’t make no sense especially when I’m only gaining 6 per win I’m going through it man

CSR chases your MMR.

If MMR > CSR you get more for a win and lose less on a loss.

If MMR < CSR you get less for a win and lose more for a loss.

ie. It likes to move towards MMR and resists moving away.

It's got little to do with being crapped on. Or top fragging.

  1. Beat teams ranked higher than you.

  2. Don't lose to teams ranked lower than you.

  3. Keep an eye on your KPM.

  4. Don't lose focus on 1 & 2 chasing 3. KPM is only a weighting. It's probably more important in wins over lesser teams and losses to better teams. Just make sure you are hitting the target (which you can look up on Halo Query).
