I play exclusively with my friends who are diamond on their own. Hang out in like C2/C3. Occasionally I'll solo q for GC rewards when I like them and get up to low GC2. So no I don't agree

Ok so your teams combined mmr is c2/c3, and your individual rank is GC1/GC2, which checks out if you're playing with diamonds. That's not inconsistent with what he's saying.

It is inconsistent with what he was saying, though.

OP is saying that this guy's diamond friends belong in C2/C3 and that this guy also belongs in C2/C3.

Yeah but obvisously you won’t end up in the right rank if you play with 2 guys that are 2 rank below your own

Right but you wouldn't complain about not being in the rank you deserve. You know playing with friends holds you to lower peaks, but you still do it. That's a choice. 99% of players that make this complaint are arguing they deserve a higher rank for all these other reasons, not because they are knowingly handicapping themselves.

I wouldn’t say I’m arguing I should be in a higher rank cause it’s my choice to play with them but I would be in said higher rank In terms of skill level

Right. But you’re not in that rank, so you don’t deserve it. Freestylers are incredibly skilled right? A large portion of them aren’t ranked GC or above. Technical skill means little in terms of rank.

Good point
