Is there actually a reason to play ranked?

I play not for the end of season rewards , but to play competitively with others. I know I will never be a high ELO player, but it it still fun.

better matchmaking

The challenge honestly. Ranked always gets my adrenaline going and I feel like I need to carry each and every time. It's a huge difference from the casual normals

• matchmaking is better, theoretically every player in the game is on a similar skill level
• if you git gut and climb you have a boost to your e-peen
