The competitive multiplayer ranking system for Halo 5: Guardians has been revealed, and is reminiscent of many other modern games.. The lack of transparency in H5's ranking system will be it's eventual downfall. I won 7 out of 10 placement games for slayer against various other ranks, mostly platinum and diamond as my partner (who was there for the full 10 games) is an onyx. I was placed in gold 6 with a 57% accuracy, 2.68 kda, 1.73 kd.
The ranking system in Halo 5: Guardians looks confusing at first. There were also changes since beta, so there is some confusion about what the actual ranks are and how the initial rank placement works. Halo 5 uses CSR (Competitive Skill Ranking) to determine your rank, based on winning and losing.. The ranking system in Halo 5: Guardians is similar to Halo 4's dual-ranking system composed of a progression-based rank and a league-based competitive skill rank based on wins and losses.
