deranked
Dropped in rank
Deranked means demoted in rank or standing, especially in competitive online gaming where a player's skill rating drops after losses: I got deranked after that losing streak.
The term applies to any system with hierarchical tiers—someone deranked has fallen to a lower level than before.
