Flex ranked mmr system is completely broken, what is being done about it?

I'm going to have to quit this game if flex isn't fixed soon. It's so miserable to play vs people that are clearly 900x better than everyone on my team, and waste 20 minutes playing a game that was decided from the start. There is no resemblance of a working mmr system. There can be a bronze person in the same game as a diamond person, like wtf is that? What is this 4 golds and a silver vs 3 plats and 2 golds? That is not balanced at all.

I think the problem is that you're looking at their rank without considering their MMR.

Your team may have lower ranks, but their MMR may be equivalent or higher. And vice verse, they could have MMR lower than their rank.

I don't think ranked gives a shit about your little badge, all it considers is your MMR. And I would bet if you compared the average MMR of your team vs their team, it would be pretty damn similar.

Probably nothing. It isn't meant to be taken seriously anyway.
