[Suggestion] New competitive ranking system

NgoWay

Currently the way you rank up is by winning competitive matches, but winning alone allows people to boost their accounts or smurf games to ruin other people's experiences. I believe it would be more effective to rank players by their match score. Your match score (from what i am aware), is the total combat score you earn in a match. And after a certain amount of competitive matches it should take the sum of all the match scores and rank you based on the sum in specified range list. For example, out of 15 games, you score 5,000 points every game, you get placed Gold II for hitting 75,000 points and so on.
Note Im just bringing up the idea, not fully thinking it out.

Actually not true. I played with friends who were just able to que with me after a few matches were i performed pretty good i am now 2 Ranks to high to que with them anymore. So in conclusion we won the same amount of matches but bec i played better scorewise i ranked up way faster. So boosting isnt really gonna work from a certain point. Btw another thing that is not possible to messure is if someone plays a support Charakter they might still have a good effect on the match outcome but Most likely not a good battle score.

Bl4derino it depends on what rank you are. riot has made it public that in the higher ranks winning is the only thing that affects your rank. this is so a duelist main wouldn't be a higher rank than an equally skilled sentinel main, encouraging team play rather than greedy individual plays. it is a team game after all.

NgoWay

All players should be able to use a gun, while your agent will increase your combat score, supports can still do many things to get ahead such as flanking, using utility, and as a cypher main, I can tell you that information gathering is a deadly weapon.
Tldr Even if a high rank player is a support, they should be good enough with a gun to make it there in the first place or they would be out of their league.

NgoWay true but someone playing as sage would get many more kills as reyna as long as they know how to play her. same for many non-duelist agents

NgoWay

DemCyclone While I doubt it because riot has been shitting on sentinel agents, it's still a great example of how your agent mastery comes into play when evaluating your skill

NgoWay im not so sure about that. even when i play my mains, i usually get more kills as reyna (not my main). her ability to heal quickly and do it so many times makes a tank in valorant. by the time she gets 2 kills in a round, we can assume the other enemies have taken damage from your teammates. (even with 1 kill this could apply) by the time reyna and the enemy interacts next in the round, shes probably at 100 while the other enemies are hurting pretty bad. not to mention her blind ability
