the chance of someone leaving in your team and in the enemy team is the same so it evens out long term, plus if you're hardstuck it's because you're bad not because of unlucky games like these trust me

I recommend trying to get a 5 stack at lower ranks and a duo if immortal. If you are not a duelist you will have a harder time promoting unless you are dropping 30 consistently and even then that doesn't guarantee anything.

i got two accounts im radiant on main, and on the second one, the one im playing on now im immortal playing 98% of time solo never had someone leave the match so was pissed that you lose that much elo... thanks for the tip btw much appreciated
EDIT: i try to fill because i found that is the most easiest way to rank up if solo depends on the map but i can play almost all agents very well

Filling benefits you because it shows how diverse your agent pool is. One of the biggest issues in the pro scene is that teams have to play around their players that can only play duelist, which makes their comp limited (i.e, Tenz, Som, Kelogz, Babybay, and many more). However, not everyone in comp is like these players that were mentioned.

You probably have experienced games where your duelist(s) are bottom-fragging and completely useless. That can ruin the game experience and decrease your chances of winning. Since you are filling, most of the time you would be probably playing a controller, an initiator, or sentinel. Their impact may not be as significant as a duelist and that is because your filling can be equivalent to playing as a supporting character; it may not be your specialty but you will play it because the TEAM needs it. When you solo and are filling you are strictly relying on duelist to consistently perform, unless you are the duelist. But in your case, having a duo who understands how you play makes it easier to play comp. Unfortunately, there is no 5 stacking in Immortal and Radiant lobbies but at least the players are somewhat better and use their mics. Sometimes you need to be selfish and auto-lock a duelist if the duelist you have been playing with hasn't been performing well.

Overall, it is a hit or miss when queuing up for comp because you either get a very good team that can carry their own and play with the team or an incompetent team that plays like individuals. Everyone experiences this, it is whether you are consistent or not in games.

If you're losing 20RR per match it means your actual rank has surpassed your hidden MMR.
Let's say you are Plat 1, and the game is based on stats like headshot percentage and ACS thinks you are Gold 2.
This means that it's going to adjust your RR to make you lose more than you will gain. Ex -20rr per lose +14rr per win

Unfortunately, this means that players that are more knowledge-based rather than aim-based suffer more. (Sentinels, Sova, Controllers)
Once you understand the ranked systems its a tad easier to try to manipulate but still fucking awful.
