its actually more respectable to be gold rank in SF6. It means you started and you're working your way up as you improve. Plus, you don't yet understand that this game is dogshit, so you have the benefit of the doubt.

On the other hand, 90% of shitters that should start in gold were placed in plat and then carried to master, so right away the ranks are meaningless just because of that. Secondly, anyone who plays long enough to get to master AND THEN KEEPS PLAYING to grind MR is mentally retarded. They're playing an abysmal "fighting game" for far longer than they have any business to because they should have realized the game is completely solved remedial mickey bullshit. If they are still playing after getting master and considering themselves "good", then they're part of the cancer killing fighting games. Gold players are completely innocent compared to them.
