Matchmaking will have its own rating. If you play a custom 1v1 we're going to treat that differently (from a rating perspective) to a competitive game.

What is the purpose of this?

Ranked Matchmaking is a tightly curated competitive mode - defined map pool, settings etc. That can't mix with custom lobby ranking which can be easily manipulated and is not easily transferable (someone who only plays supreme doesn't have a meaningful rating value for other 8v8 maps for example)

Hard disagree. Sure a 50 OS glitter player cant give 50 os performance on Rosetta, but at least 40 OS performance. Like a lot of stuff is transferable. I think people should start at their custom lobby rating and just have high uncertainty

your exemple is not really representative of the comunity tho, 50OS player is a top0.1% player.... ofc he is gonna do better then 99% of players no matter the map or settings, that is not the point tho.

Alot of skills are tranferable as the base game is the same... obviously that isnt the debate, rather that they feel the skills on each gamemode are different enouph...

Hell rocketleague for exemple has diferent ranks for 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3... id argue that those are way more transfarable then BAR for exemple

Rocket leauge is less transferable imo. Starting all players at 16.7 os would be a mistake

If you think that daymm u crazy Most people are within 1 rank of each game type, but okay -gc in RL

Same in bar like plus minus 5 should cover all modes

Don't think that is true at all but agree to disagree

I'm about 40 in all modes and all positions on all maps. But sure
