Climbing out of gold is impossible, Change my mind

These are interesting data. It would be good also to know the average number of games played in general, and in order to reach platinum.

29.7% of the players who placed in the top half of gold (1350-1499) finished the season in plat or higher. Highest Finish: 18437.5% of the players who placed in the bottom half of gold (1200-1349) finished the season in plat or higher. Highest Finish: 18021.1% of the players who placed below gold (0-1199) finished the season in plat or higher. Highest Finish: 1680Lowest placement to hit plat: 686

This data seems incomplete on what you're telling us. The volatile nature at the beginning of the season has people being played in silver/gold so them climbing to plat doesn't really make sense on what you're saying. Simply put, we need more in depth data for this to have any real meaning.

Lol, no. The 686 rating making it to platinum was an anomaly - likely a player who is normally platinum and intentionally lost all placement matches to show that it's possible to climb out of bronze/silver all the way to platinum (if you actually belong there).

And what kitten math did you do to get that over 50% of players reach platinum? If you assume a normal population distribution centered at 1200 (bottom of gold), less than 30% of less than 50% of the population made it to platinum.

pesonally i see more people in bronze than gold...that means the major player who play constantly pvp reach platinum... and the most platinum player dont have the "skills" for play in plat adn that made all match unbalanced...this is the consequence of the choices taken by anet .... have removed all the best players by boasting all those who were not able to compete in a season pvp .... so having less population is easier than the gold find themselves at play with platinum and that's why it's easier to get platinum for gold and for plat to go up in rank .... I do not know what you're playing ... or if you pretend to see things as they are ... but this is the truth ..... it is a proof of the fact that for years now the mirage condition is op (as well as the most played class) but have never fixed the class ... because it was designed for players that as I said before have not the ability to compete with better players .... facilitate these players by eliminating all forms of competition in the game with the consequent decrease of good players who obviously do not want to lose against or abduct with bad player but who use totally op class. ..and the game is dying
