You must have lost one to some low ranks. The system punishes you more for losing than rewarding you for winning. Yeah, it sucks.

The game just gets super hateful sometimes, once i won 8 games in a row, never ranked up, lost one and deranked. I felt throwing my controller out the window.

It's all to do with ratios.

@InfantFoe.

Unlucky man. But yeah, the ranking system of Halo can be do three things to you.
1) It may make you happy.
2) It may make you frustrated at times.
3) It may drive you insane by putting people who are way too good at the game or just high ranks.

Usually for me, its number 3 :) because it loves to get on my nerves. To be honest, you should be able to rank back up depending on how well you play on your next match and depending on the playlist you play on. Good luck.
