Overwatch 2 patch notes finally give players an explanation for their low ranking in Competitive

Many people jumping into Overwatch 2 for the first time are jumping straight into Competitive play, and now with the new rating system in the game, they’re also being placed pretty low. Some of this was intended, but with today’s patch notes, it seems not all of it was planned.

Along with a ton of other bug fixes for the game, developers addressed concerns over being placed in very low ranks compared to Overwatch 1. A lot of players were being placed into Bronze five after their placements, and then shooting up to their actual rank after their first seven wins. This issue was reported numerous times and now the developers have seemingly fixed it.
