deranks
Falls in rank
Deranks means to lower in rank or remove from a ranked position.
In gaming, players derank when they lose enough matches to drop to a lower skill tier: I deranked twice this week playing solo queue.
The term also applies to intentionally losing to face easier opponents—a practice most games prohibit.
