"New ranked changes kinda killed the solo queue": Apex Legends players want changes in the ranked rewards and matchmaking

sportskeeda.com:

There are some major issues with competitive matchmaking in Apex Legends. Respawn, as usual, has made some changes and some of them are positive.

However, jumbling up the ranks is causing severe problems, especially with the balance of matchmaking. What's happening, as a result, is a disbalanced match, which is causing major problems for players.

With jumbled ranked tiers, players of all skills are competing against each other. While the lucky ones enjoy the matches, many have suffered from problems.

Several Apex Legends players have requested changes as they think such instances shouldn't be occurring in the first place. Respawn hasn't responded as of yet, but players have discussed the issue once again on the game's subreddit.

The original post was made by Reddit user u/Coolbreeze_coys, who stated an alarming piece of news. After two weeks of the new season, approximately 95% of the players are still at Gold 2 or lower.

This isn't what used to happen with earlier seasons and showcases the difficulty that's there in the current season. The user added that they appreciate some of the changes made, but some tweaks to the existing ones need to be made.

Other players also expressed their opinions about the current issues with competitive matchmaking. Respawn recently introduced the Rookie tier, which some thought would help to improve the situation. Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case, much to the players' disappointment.

Another users feels that rookie players should compete against each other. Given that all players start out in the division, it would be fair and the better ones will gradually rise out of it.

Some are finding the positives out of the hardships as they are just trying to play well without getting too caught
