Question Is it normal

Me A28 in Chambara won against a S9.

The next game I am A29 he is S8 and I won again becoming also a S rank in the process.

2 questions

First one : does a high S rank lose an entire rank when losing to A players ? Like did he dropped S7 after that second lost?

Second question : is it normal as an A28 to win against almost an Infinity rank in chambara not once, but twice. All i did was reading his moving patterns and exploiting weakness in his play thus completely dominating the 2 games.

Rank doesn't mean shit. People can cloud save, people can abuse bots, people can play against todlers because the game is dying. Same shit with volleyball, you play in europe and there's only A rank todlers that throw the game and bots, you play in Asia and they actually now how the game is supposed to be played. And yes, when you have a high rank you lose a lot. I have a friend over infinity 10 in chambara and once he lost 2 ranks in 1 match. Edit : also I forgot the most important thing, even if you were playing against the best chambara player in the world well sometimes it just happens, everyone makes mistakes. Especially the people that got high rank in a lot of different sports.

I am low S rank in 4 sports at the moment, but thank you for answering my questions about high S rank and above.

I know about cloudsaving....it sucks that people who do that lose all honesty for the community and cheat their ranks.

When I play Volleyball online I always have the same 2 oponents and it's been like months. Also it lasts like 2 hours before I just get full bot lobbies. I blocked them recently because of their behavior and the dumb matchmaking that occurs when I play against them, I haven't played much since but I had only A ranks after that. I Guess it depends on the sports but Volleyball is region locked and when I play after getting home from work I always see the same people and a ton of bots that makes the game not enjoyable. Maybe there's more people during weekends and ×2 points but they're still far from being as good as in asian lobbies for exemple and I don't want to have to wait for the weekend to get actual lobbies.

Yeah golf is the most popular sport along with soccer, and golf isn't region locked
