      Cuz it's the rank reset season. Me and 90% of my M1 - Gm5 friends were dropped to gold-plat for placement where we just destroyed lobbies. Same happened when I was looking at my gf's gameplay. There is usually that 1 guy who didn't do the placements/got unlucky with it that has to climb back to higher ranks. I'd say it is a caviat of rank reset and prolly will fix itself in a couple of seasons

  • @TS-uu4hp

    The ultimate tip is never solo queue. Solo queue means you are rolling a dice no matter how good you are. Never have I ever duo'd where I didn't win 8/10 games even when my partner was way ahead of me in rank (rank breakdown explained below).
    Edit: since everyone is a little negative Nancy and likes to talk shit here’s some more context for those that actually want the tip. You play a game where you win? Add someone on your team who did well and tell them you’re down to duo and to shoot you an invite when they see you on. Do this several times and it becomes a lot easier to have someone on you can play with as a team. Additionally all these people saying you’re getting boosted. Give me a break. If you stack in any form you’re more likely to play against other stacks, and I hate to break it to you but the matchmaking right now will put you in a bronze lobby even if you’re silver, it will put you in a gold lobby even if you’re bronze. Your games will be unfair whether that’s in your favor or to your detriment more often than it will be an even match and that gets even worse the higher rank you go. Furthermore my direct story is my recent duo with a friend who hasn’t played a game since well before kiriko was released and we just did his placements. He’s mid plat and high gold for some roles, I’m mid plat and high gold for some roles. Guess what our opponents are lol? Same thing.
    In regards to “boosting” You know you can only play with someone a division above you right? If this is considered boosting, you better start reporting everyone every time you get in a lobby where your opponents rank is higher than yours (this will happen every game btw). Additionally if they’re plat and you’re gold, you’re going to end up in diamond lobbies especially if you’re in a group of any size and so I’d ask you if you feel the same way about a gold throwing in a diamond lobby vs a plat carrying in a gold lobby since by your logic that’s how this works?

    One tip you have has been a huge one for me lately, which is to follow more. Just by focusing on (as a DPS myself) simply following the Tank or other DPS around the map more often, instead of doing my own thing, I'm winning more games.. ESPECIALLY early in the fight to help get those early kills and break through the sustain of the other team.

Not to mention I'm a solo Q player (friends gave up on the game in the early seasons) so I'm basically playing comp for points at this rate because for some reason Blizzard doesn't seem to improve the solo Q experience in fact I say it probably got worse because now its win one lose one rinse and repeat sure its comp I'm not expecting to win every game but fam can I at least win 3 in a fucking row I'm steady flopping between plat 4 and Plat 5 since the rank reset this shit is not fun.

    From my personal experience it's a twofold problem.
    1. Ranks got pulled into the middle, which means if I'm playing plat/gold games, I'm still playing against people who were low-mid diamond last season. This makes it harder to win those games, which is especially important considering how impactful placements are.
    2. The number of games needed to rank up. I just need to play tons of games in order to climb. If I'm only playing after getting off work, I only have time to play a few comp games each night, so even if I win all my games in a night I might not rank up.

    The only reason you want to rank up to top 500 is because you wanna feel that validation, but the validation only lasts as long as till you start the next game.

      Literally just give up on playing Mercy only. It’s not worth getting good with her. There is no reward because you have 0 impact compared to other supports. Take advantage of being a low rank and being able to get away with playing poorly on new heroes. If you don’t then you will sink a lot of time into it, watch your replays, and always realize the outcome was out of your control. The devs also hate Mercy so she is perpetually mediocre at best.

    I don't believe it will get any better for as long as Blizzard keeps validating the selfish player so much... Things like having a functional mic and not talking on comms when there's a sombra stalking you from behind should simply not be acceptable. Same with those guys with overly cranked music not listening to any of the comms or having any sonic awareness for that matter.
    That's the all-time low on comms and willingness for teamwork. Plus, the DPS update kind of closed the gap between bad players and the average ones who really try. Can't help it but hating how Blizzard tries to shove a shallow concept of teamwork down everyone's throats when they're not really willing to punish those who literally destroy the concept in ranked play. They are the big majority and the ones who spend a fortune on overpriced skins after all... Surely activision's perfectly fine with it.
    Like you said. It's needed more than ever now... But there's no willingness and now games are a clusterfuck of Plats, Diamonds, Masters and GM's in the exact same lobby. The solo queue experience just became more insufferable and impossible to enjoy than it's ever been.

      @ethan25107 I weirdly have had lots more leavers on dps compared to tank or support. I still get on those roles but it's like maybe 1/10 games. Dps feels like 1/4 games. Sometimes every other game. After waiting 10+ minutes to get in only to have someone automatically leave and gotta priority requeue(aka regularly queue lol) it gets a bit annoying and don't really want to play anymore. At least i don't get a loss then unlike other games where they leave first team fight etc and you can wait two minutes to get an automatic loss unless somehow you win a 4 vs 5 which is very rare. I've maybe done it twice.

    Played the other night as a solo queue which is the only way to play these days unless you have a group of friends that are all at your skill level… (bring back group finder!). Anyway, I’ve been a solid masters player for the past 2-3 seasons. Did my placements and they started by saying I’m predicted to be gold…. Excuse me? Masters to gold?! After finishing my placements it placed me in plat 1…. SO WRONG. Now I’m stuck in elo hell with actual plat players because I look at their profiles and they’ve literally never been out of plat. This rank reset is AWFUL for the game. I then found a bunch of solo ppl with mics and we grouped up. Turns out every single one of them was a former masters player who couldn’t get out of plat to save their lives. The truth of it is, they reset everyone way too much. We are stuck playing with people 2 FULL ranks below our actual level. Why can’t I get on teams with grandmasters on my team? Why do I have the true golds and below on my team? This matchmaking is awful. Fix it. Give us back our ranks we worked hard for.

    • @ianchambers37
      @ianchambers37 10 місяців тому

      I had the same with placements as well. Win a game, you must be bronze. Win 4 games. You must be bronze...I win 6 games..I guess bronze 3 not 5. Win 7. Maybe you might be silver. Lose one.. I guess gold... ended up 7 and 3 and got gold 5. Get the same winning % on tank, dps. Didn't budge from bronze 3. Open queue got silver 1. The placement makes no sense.
      Also why wins get generally around 8 to 16%(only seen once and highest, I've gotten), and most losses generally start at 20 and go up to 40%. 😂 feels not good to lose a third to nearly half a rank for one Loss but if I win once or twice, barely get a third of a rank if that.

    Idk if its because im on console but the new ranking system is fucked. I won all 10 of my dps placements got placed into gold 3. This past weekend i won 3 games in a row the first game went up like half progress bar. Second win went up a little due to being expected to win. The 3rd game however we won again for the 3 streak and i lost about half of my progress bar with no reasoning being shown as to why. It makes no sense to me.

    I have two accounts. One I solo, and one I play with my little brothers. One ended last season at Plat 2/3 and the other at Diamond 2. Plat account placed Gold 4 and Diamond account placed Plat 4. Diamond account I have relatively easily climbed to one win away from Diamond 5 and the other I literally can’t get out of Gold. Only managed to climb briefly to plat 5 and have since fallen to Gold 2. The issue is how frequently I’ll get a gold tank and the enemy has a former Diamond tank and they just role my whole team and there’s only so much I can do as support. Of course sometimes I get a former diamond tank and we roll them but it just turns into this 50/50 game but then you lose a close game a couple times and now you’ve fallen an entire rank.

    First the obvious reason the rank system started before 2 or 3 weeks and not a single player not a top 500 not a pro and not a streamer reached gm1. This means that the new is bad. The next reason are the points matchmaking you find random games about your elo i give a a exemple from my smurf that is stuck in p5 (placed p4) after 50 games i find overall more games bellow p5 atm becaurse of the que time and i think most of the playerbase is gold so the game give me more gold games but thats a issue for my curent elo when i win it i get less elo (18-20) when i lose its incresed (22-40). And now let's go to the ow2 confirmed plus and minus points for your rank. Good points for matchmaking are win streak and lose streak. Calibration is ok it isnt terrinle it isnt verry good. And now i come to the terrible points that shoundt be in the game uphill battle consulation reversal expected calibration volatile.

      Yeah dude your never gonna rank up as a support. I'm also a support main and no matter how hard I carry it never makes up for my team's mistakes. I'm honestly thinking of maining dps at this point.

      ​@@GenshinGhostI sometimes do for a change of frustration pace 😂. Did better on tank for wins but still a 50 50 each game it seems for quality

    bc players from gm and master are stuck in high plat and diamond, average folks of high plat and low diamond from the previous season are suffering and its not fun to play even if we win in this early season

    Im not saying im the best, and i know im responsible for myself. But bro the reason im stucked in elo hell. Are mostly leavers and tanks. I got 3 leavers in 3 consecutive games🤬😡🤬.
    Tank right now is the most difficult position to play and most people dont know how to play it, create space and they only like to spam “heal me” and W and then blame the support for not healing them. they also see they are being counter by 3 characters from the other team and stay the whole game with the same char.😒 im not the best but i try and is not fun anymore. especially when you have to wait between 3 to 5 min to find a game 😢😢.

      I was about to agree with literally everything you said until you said wait three to five minutes per game and that's nothing.... Try an hour long que before complaining about wait times, DBD Killer has taught me patience and I wish y'all would stop complaining about "THIS IS SOOOOO LOOOOONG UUUUURGH 2 MINUTES AAAAASAHHHHHG"
      .........Bruh... Even in OW1 GOATS the min wait time was about 10 minutes... CHILL THE EFF OUT

      ​@Bluemansonic I know the feeling. Whether I pick tank or dps as solo or when queued with friends it's minimum like 8 to 10 minutes if lucky. Even support which says 1 min(as does tank) its sometimes like 3 to 5 minutes. I do agree that it feels like there are a lot of leavers these days and since losses hurt a lot more for climbing now(it feels like since you lose often much more % then I get with any win I've gotten even if uphill etc) and you often are forced one with leavers, it sucks a lot and frustrating to play comp at all.
