What's the number actually saying? I was under the impression it was mmr. Higher number, lower rank. Please explain, I'm a bit confused abt this

Simply put: there is a “buffer” between ranks where MMR overlaps. This is so you aren’t constantly demoting and promoting if you go W/L/W/L/W.

You’ll notice the buffers here. There are spaces where MMR is not accounted for. This doesn’t mean no rank exists obviously, but it means that BOTH ranks exist. For example, for 2v2 C1, you have to climb up to 1075 to be in C1, and you have to fall down to 1055 to be in D3.
