So I've seen players using a program to get any rank instantly.
Did you know?
Do you accept that pro players can go and bully/farm at rank 20?

    What program? I have not seen it. So it bypassed EAC?

    There is a exploit on console where if you SWF after a match if you stay in the endgame lobby and one friend sends an invite you join from that screen you’ll “reset” to 20 and at the end scoreboard you’ll see the actual rank. But this is how my rank 2 friends reset to 20 for eazier matches.

    This is only a visual bug.

    It still uses their regular Rank for matchmaking, not 20.

    I'm not talking about a "visual bug". There's for sure a legal or not way to change your rank. I hope we'll have an answer from devs right on one of their stream. Changing instantly from rank 1 to 20 should be a game feature then.

    maybe if we spam this response the idiocy will stop, this has been an ongoing issue for them, they have answered this question many times on stream.

    The leagues or leaderboard system could stop bad matchmaking and "put on hold" the rank 1-20 system

    Everyone is pointing to the rank reset, but recently we've seen people like Marth and Bahroo do ######### like "20 to 1" perkless. With Bahroo specifically he turned his screen black for a few minutes, and when it came back on he was on his same profile but instead of being rank 1 he was reset to rank 20.

    And of course a BHVR employee comes to watch and they both just joke "Lul, how crazy that this happened! What a freak accident I just accidentally reset to rank 20 in the few moments my stream was showing a black screen. Oh well, guess I'll just crush less skilled players and mock them for being bad."

    If some of the larger streamers are doing this with BHVR approval, there is little hope that they'll ever do anything to stop other people.

    Why are you watching their streams, if you know that's what they're like? I don't get it.

    I've only seen swf with 1 rank 20 and the other 3 red ranks. Although I did verse 4 red ranks at rank 14 after rank reset

    It's a common 'issue' , people do it all the time, it's funny how some don't know about this 'magical' program
