Marvel Rivals is finally getting placement matches after months of ranked misery, but it's still a little bit away.
I'm not huge on multiplayer games outside fighting games and Fortnite (the latter of which mainly because you don't need to think while playing it), but I've been enjoying Marvel Rivals as someone who was in the Overwatch mines for the first year or two. But one aspect I find miserable is Ranked play, and I can hear you say "of course it's miserable, it's ranked play" and you're right, but Marvel Rivals is a special breed thanks to the multitude of smurf accounts – alternate accounts made by more experienced players looking to pick on lower-ranked people.
While placement matches don't entirely take smurfs out of the equation, it does mean in theory you should be placed in matches with players around your skill level once you're actually given your rank at the end of them. Unless, of course, they also smurf through their placement matches to get a low rank, but surely no one is going to do that, right…?
