Is Plat the new Gold?

Or is it more complicated than that? Like Plat 2 is the new Gold 3 or something.

high diamond has episode 1 gold/silver peaks mostly

yes same thing goes for ascendant its like the new plat/dia

with the addition of ascendant, the average rank shifted up about 2-2.5 ranks.

check their tracker, they’re clearly a higher rank than they should be and they’re queued with a silver 1 so their hidden mmr is extremely low
