the people aren't complaining how that was never true in the first place, they're complaining how the summer events is just a blatant cash grab

summer skins and whatnot seem to be more common then other to me. ive already gotten like 3 in addition to a bunch of summer sprays

I like everything except the 500 max skill gap to queue
I get the problem it's trying to solve, but I think the better solution would be to change the averaging formula. Just using the median instead is the mean would be extremely simple, while still allowing one or two low ranked players without dropping the average rank

The thing is with a median is that you could have 4 30-rank players and 2 60-rank players but the 60-ranks would carry the hell out of the team. Even just 1 60 rank against 30-ranks might be able to Solo the other team.
It's competitive; there shouldn't be huge skill gaps between players. If you want to play with friends play Quickplay.
