I've seen a lot of the posts about hidden MMR (matchmaking rating) vs rank rating, but still trying to wrap my head around what's happening here (losing 26 rank points per loss but only gaining 13-14 rank points per win). From reading threads, it seems like there are two things that could be happening, but they seem a bit conflicting:
- My hidden MMR is higher than bronze 3 so I am being penalized for losing games to opponents around my level
- My hidden MMR is lower than bronze 3 so the rank rating is trying to "pull me back" towards my true MMR, and keeping me from moving further away from it when I win

The recent UI changes have discouraged me from utilizing my different skins and checking career
It used to be *super* easy to quickly check your career or even change skins. Now it feels like a mission in itself to go back to Home and choose one of the 6 options. It has also discouraged me from checking the Store for some reason.

how much would you love/hate this game mode and why?
imagine a shorter gameplay like swiftplay, but its basketball rules so teams switch between offense and defense after each round rather than at half time
nothing too crazy but im very curious how this would play out, i envision most people...
