What rank is considered good?

[Oberon's Top Guy]

In ranked conquest what would be the border between being good and bad?
I feel like this is a good disscusion material.

Well, I've had people who can't play Conquest (as in they've never played a game of it in coop or normals) in Gold, so probably higher than that for good.

Unfortunately, you might get placed above or below where you should be depending on who you were playing with in qualifying. If you had people that I mentioned above, it's hard to win enough to get placed decently for example.

In most MOBAs with the Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Masters/Champions tier system for Ranked, Gold is usually considered to be where you have about half of the Ranked player base above you and half below you. So by that assessment, Gold would be average and better than Gold would be considered a "good" rank.

Now what this doesn't completely take into account are people who are still good players but who don't play many Ranked matches, as you really need to be putting in a lot of games to climb the ladder... But of course, the more you play, the more experience you get and the more you'll improve, so the system still works decently as far as how good the person is at playing Ranked.

I think any thing in plat would be good

If you're playing ranked anything below masters is bad, and half the people in masters are bad.

Really tough to say. It's quite possible to face a really bad Plat, and then face a Bronze player who could absolutely smash your face in. The ranked system is completely broken so I would not put a lot of stock in it. Technically speaking, Gold is considered about average, but the nature of the ranked system means a lot of good players can get stuck in that Silver/Gold tier. A lot of players in Plat aren't necessarily more skilled, they just have a higher tolerance for grinding.

Pretty safe to say that most Diamond and Masters players are very good or excellent, though.
