I have been grinding PvP straight for about 80-100 hours. I went from a 0.65 to a 0.95 (with a max of 0.97). I was just demoted to silver and I am done. Whoever made the PvP comp system is either an idiot or just someone -blam!- hates fun. Get a win? +50 points. Lose because you played against some flawless emblem BS same clan sweaty goobers? -200 points! Also in what universe is relegation a good idea, I've literally never seen it in another game and it sucks and is super demotivating. Did I also mention, the only reason I'm doing this is to just get to plat, because I want the glorious title. That's it. No ascendent or anything like that, and that's usually when I've seen people complain about it. Now I get it, it's partially a skill issue on my part but that doesn't mean it still isn't super demotivating and made terribly. I have about 535 hours in warframe and not once was there a grind as bad as this.
Also rift doesn't feel like a competitive mode and just really shouldn't be in the playlist.

1) Congrats on making it to a 0.95. In Comp, that's a pretty good K/D. 2) Flawless Emblems mean nothing. 3) Being in the same clan as your team means nothing. 4) Your Comp Rank is determined by your "skill," which is also the stat used to determine your opponents and teammates. If you match players who are Ascendent, then you'll eventually come close to reaching Ascendent. If you match Gold players, it's unlikely you'll ever reach above Gold. Of course, (1) and (4) change next season when Bungie changes how Comp Ranks are awarded and how you matchmake.
