I've just received word from a friend that is well connected (irl friends with developers) and they said it is a high priority issue that will be resolved as soon as possible. I imagine that means a day or two at most...
I don't like it because I literally have to go +14 games to improve from 900-800 which is about 110 games for me... It doesn't feel like the games are as important. Don't get me wrong I'm still having a blast; I love hearthstone. But I enjoy climbing and seeing legitimate changes to my rank. Going from 922 to 916 as I just did is after a 20-minute game is not nearly as satisfying.
I am seeing absolutely nothing on Twitter but I did see similar complaints on PlayHearthstone. I tweeted and e-mailed Blizzard a couple of hours ago. I will let you all know what they say.
I'm saying that across all ranks in legend there are ranges (100-200, 700-100 for example) and that the change in rank for a game played is consistent with these ranges. In that sense, no range is more consistent than another range.
Yes, it's insane. Literally just moved 8 for the first time... I'm shocked there isn't an official statement on this or more outrage.
The AMOUNT you gain/lose is more consistent at higher ranks as a bi-product of lower change (fewer numbers). The RANGE of change is consistent amongst all legend ranks, ie you won't ever lose 80 ranks from rank 30, but you often will at rank 900 and you won't gain 3 ranks at 900 whereas you often will at rank 30.
Up until the latest patch update a rank 900 player would expect at least a 40 rank movement all of the time. Through 35 games at rank 900, I have not once changed my rank by more than SEVEN.
It's just the opposite. I've been as high as 24 and as low as 1300. You move up and down 80-100 sub 1000+ whereas you would know that rank 200 or so you're moving up and down around 20 on average.
My guess is that the MMR intended to be released in April is already in place since the recent update. We are playing players so similar to us in MMR that a win or loss is hardly significant according to the original ranking structure.

It's definitely demotivating. Hopefully, it's changed by tomorrow.

It's not standard. 40-80 is the standard change in rank when you're 800-1200.
