Idk what its like to NOT solo q. Ive solo queued this game for years. Ive got people I play with occasionally and it makes it much easier but mostly I solo. Its fine until you wanna play ranked. Past gold comms are key to gaining rp
Another great vid. I solo q knowing damn well that I'm making things more difficult for myself, my only complaint being the matchmaking. I played 16 games last night and 9 of those games, I was given teammates with only a small to moderate grasp on the games mechanics and I outshined them all by a pretty wide margin. I wouldn't mind if I was better at the game but I have a .9 KD and it seems a bit skewed to give me randoms that are still learning the ins and outs while we take on teams with masters/20 bomb/pred badges. 4 of those games I was paired with teammates that were only slightly worse than me and had decent game sense but still were no match for the teams we were fighting. 2 games I was paired with masters and above players that outshined my kills and damage by a significant margin basically holding my hand to a second place game. Only 1 game in my sample size of 16 games did I have a team that was comparable to me in skill and game sense. We ended up winning with minimal comms. Of course one cannot gain the most out of such a small sample but it happens more often than not with solo q. TLDR: More often than not I am stuck with teammates who happen to be quite a bit worse than me (im pretty casual with a .9kd). If apex could spread out the talent of the players in the match a bit better than maybe the solo q experience wouldn't be so grueling. (Yes I know its a team game but the homies can't always get on). Respawn needs to figure out how to balance out the teams that aren't in a party to make the game less grueling to play.
Dude I feel that! I keep getting paired with players that do 250 damage by the end of the game or teammates who get on comms to shame my 1 kill 1000 damage while they have 10 kills each. There truly is no in between.
@@peaceland9465 Guys don't hate on me but since the playerbase has been dropping have you been running into a increase of sus players? I hate accusing people of using Zen but I die to people I know are way better than me and you can see them controlling/fighting the recoil but I have been dying to a lot of players that have literally zero recoil at all. I have clips if you guys want to review and give me your opinions.
my last random was smack talking the other random then when we died, the random that was getting smack talked started with both of us then i was like why you talking about me, so they respawned the random that was trash talking them and purpose did not pick up my card, i was never more confused in my life then got off when they died in the next fight immediately
I live my life day by day I don’t have a roadmap for anything. Other ppls choices have no effect on my life. I will continue to do things that make me happy & I have 0 problems making apex content atm
@ wow. Ok thank you so much. Surprised but happy at the same time u didn’t say lifeline and gibby or Newcastle. Thank you so much. Keep up the amazing content. Ur one of a kind
Bro I literally don't think I can do it I solod to plat and my teammates are genuinely so useless and unskilled I can't it doesn't matter what I do, how many people I knock it doesn't matter. Something will somehow fuck it up
ive been there but at the end of the day if you learn from your misplays and dont blame teammates etc youll get better at the game and grind thru plat easy
I solo queue rank and pubs all day is actually pretty fun you get to see both side you either get a demon on your team and you both slay the whole lobby easy dub while your third is complete lost or you get two decent or horrible players and you end up doing the most getting second place i find solo queue not that bad of a experience
I just get shit teammates I carry 24/7 on my fucking back, they always have a season 17 masters badge but don't know how to even shoot there gun in straight line its crazy. Why is it that every dog shit player has a season 17 master badge
I just started solo queuing into ranked for the first time ever. First time playing ranked I mean, and it’s a nightmare. I don’t understand how this game can make me so miserable. I have no friends to play with so that don’t help much either..
I am gonna predict why you chose Valk at the 1:12 mark and say the red outlines of the enemy.. Valk is the best recon now for that reason + her rotations are nuts.
Solo q no mic is all i know. All you have to do is not be part of the 99.9% of sheeple playing this game, from bronze to pred they are all EXACTLY the same. Let the 99% kill each other and clean up at top 5. Took me 4 days to get pred doing this. I feel like its a shame to share this very basic tactic but the iq gap on this game is like no other game.
@@CrazyRachet Ratchet, I know you will probably just tell me to get better or ignore this comment, but have you been running into a increase of people with sus recoil control since the player base has been dropping? I die to players better than me all the time and I can see them controlling/fighting the recoil (including even pred players) but I have been running into a increase of players who look to have zero recoil at all.

Especially if u play a harder but better sensitivity with linear response curve
Being pred and having plat and gold teammates is disgusting work.
Filthy work

It's been a while since i last watched your video bro. Glad I'm watching again 😌
Pred solo queing rachet is another level of player
When ratchet was solo queuing with valk he kept positioning himself like a solid master player felt like I was watching a mirror image of myself

You really HIM! That clutch W was 🔥
2025 Rachet, is still a problem with the Nemesis. Love it.
First game was a masterpiece
Crazyrachet do u have any tip to stop crashing out over dumb ranked teammates
Therapy, anger management classes.

I’m the teammate that sucks, but I’m not gonna get better not playing so just bear with me lmao
You can get better we believe in you
Okay but the doja cat beat in the background is EVERYTHING 💅
Idk why but i love solo Q i just play better than with a duo or a trio
Rachet are u gonna upload other games j asking as everyone is leaving apex i still love the content tho whats ur roadmap for next year?
I live my life day by day I don’t have a roadmap for anything. Other ppls choices have no effect on my life. I will continue to do things that make me happy & I have 0 problems making apex content atm
Hey rachet do you play on controller and if so what controller settings I've been messing with mine lately

It jus be like that sometimes. Playin solo is hard. @spiritualski4651

hey man can you make a settings video???
Do u have some tips for high damage/kill games

😮 Give this man his 1v1, he deserves it for stay this persistant
Hey ratchet can u choose a legend for me to main besides octane,wraith
I try so hard and either I run through diamond and pred lobbies or I get ran through. I’m so inconsistent
What servers do you play on? Bc I play Xbox and I'm pred currently and solo q a good bit cuz im only 13 would like to meet you
Ik you play PlayStation but do you know good binds for Xbox on a gamesir controller
Timing is insane. I'm lowkey stuck in Plat 2. I win 2 or 3 good games then lose most of the RP.
im stuck in gold 3-2 :) once i get 2 i lose. then back to 3. get some good games back to 2 then repeat :) i suck.
Could you do a setting video also W video
U outrageously good
Teach me how to do those headies
Any zim is possible right ?
found a noob
8:55 what did you said here? I can't hear it so I had to make my volume louder.
👺
Finally!!!! It’s been 4 days too long
SOLO Q IN PRED IS DOPE AS FUCK. NICE SHIT MAN.
Please Make New Settings Video
Valk is the only recon with movement
I can solo queue to D4 and that’s it😔
apex is a tough game nothing to be sad about! that's really good
Nice moves
8:57 rachet having a whole moan session off getting shot broo😭😭
I’m glad I’m not the only one who heard that 😭😭
im planning on solo queing through platinum… pray for me 🙏
First to comment, first to the video🫶🏾love when ratchet posts ‼️
8:00 makes me miss the R9
I'm ok with solo queing until I get to high plat. My goal is to solo que to diamond but It just gets difficult in plat
❤❤❤ love you big bro n everything you say i agree with unfortunately im extremely rusty and bad I’ve been gone for a year n man im so bad 😢😢😢

Main lifeline

I am gonna predict why you chose Valk at the 1:12 mark and say the red outlines of the enemy.. Valk is the best recon now for that reason + her rotations are nuts.
