Second game was a potato field for a team, given the multiple under-200s and the damning pair in Charlie that managed 55 damage between two assaults. But it's not like you cure a matchmaker that thinks potato equals a Baradul or B33f.
In the second match your teammates barely did any damage. MadCat MkII has some seriously big an strong shoulders but it cannot carry a match all on its own. Half of the team seemed to cause less damage than their own tonnage.
Common problem. Doesn't matter how much damage you throw up if half your team can't even break 200 damage. You know it's bad when you, by yourself, throw up as much damage as more than half your team.
It doesn't help that the tier system is more of an XP accumulator and less a reflection of skill. If it was a reflection skill, I should probably be in Tier 3. Instead I'm in Tier 1.
Perfect example of why MechWarrior is called a tactical shooter. Running and gunning doesn't win. Getting your allies to focus fire with narc, buying your allies time to Nascar doing rear guard, role warfare, these things win matches.
😂 Yes, 2000 damage, 4 kills, but 0 wins in 2 matches. . .clearly run and gun doesn't work. In fact, the losses were Baradul's fault. He should have played more "tactically." 😂😂😂
Do not fight the nascar, embrace it. The faster nascar always wins because pugs are to "narrow minded" for anything else. If you don't want to nascar... que Faction Play and go make some coffee, you'll need it to get through the que-times
@@allenscott9016 I'm not sure how long you've been playing. Obviously nowhere near enough. I've seen me and others pull 400 damage with 2-3 solo kills. It's not damage. It's placement and type. I've seen guys on the receiving end of a NASCAR torso twist till they are sticks. Doing only 200 damage but holding the entire enemy team in death valley for us to shoot them like fish in a barrel. I've seen a spider-5v do only 50 damage to enemy backs yet pull half the enemy team off the firing line. Saying in allchat "better come get me noobs your base is already halfway caped" as we just murder balled the 4 guys left on point. It's not baradul's fault. I never said it was. I pointed out damage and kills does not mean victory. If it did, then baradul could have carried. But it doesn't. So he didn't.
@falling floor everything in your little sermons just screams "potato" LOL. Extolling the virtues of the 50-damage spider. . . Preaching the value of narc "support mechs". . . I can smell the mashed potatoes and gravy through my monitor. Rather than wasting any more time in this forum, if you really want to prove yourself look me up in the game. Callsign Evil_GM, play most nights standard PST hours. Happy to kick your ass in QP, FP, or Solaris. Look forward to hearing from you!
Also not losing a King Crab instantly at the start of the match with only 18 damage. That helps to win too, but we can't control our teammates' mechs to make them not fail.
Since when did the Deathstrike have a UAC jam chance reduction? Strongly considering retooling mine to this build now. I really like my 2xUAC20 WHK-PRIME but all those ERSMLs look delicious.
@@zalin2000 I dunno, I've been back from a year-ish hiatus and had some pretty good teams. Also generally friendly, with one or two players who would rather blame the rest of us while not giving us anything usable. "You don't want his support, he can't aim for shit" or "You know we gotta go to the big yellow spot, right?" when there's terrain in the way and we can't B-line right to the Domination zone. Oh, and one in particular says that shit then gets himself killed while the rest of us work together even in the face of a loss. Players like that tend to fall into that category of "If you're blaming your team, you're likely the problem."
@@HazopGaze I will not say i'm a good player I would say i'm average for sure. But when you play 10 games and get stomped in all of them like 2-12 stomps there's something else going on than just my shittyness.
@@zalin2000 *shrug* I know I'm probably among the worst in terms of actual combat. (Blame the laptop, 5fps in a brawl aint fun at all.) Stuck in a Catapult shelling things to open up armor and wreck components. I'm useless in a straight up fight, but I do everything team player style. I stay with the group, take hits, try to avoid blocking people, (framerate makes that difficult at times, too) and keep my LAMS online as much as possible to help ease up enemy missile barrages. Hell, I'll even start calling targets for focus fire if no one else beats me to it. I can't afford to be one of those lazy LRM players who hangs out way in the back coz I'd get hunted down and killed in the first minute or two, rendering me truly useless. As for your teams, I hope the game starts matching you with better players, is all I can say. Should we run into each other, my apologies in advance if you're on the receiving end of my LRMs, fire direction, or both.
@@GerardYoder its complicated as F. coming from a guy who has little to no prior battlemech exp, i play this game on and off, still havent got the slightest clue how to be "good". i did several matches with 600+ dmg as a jagermech with twin RAC5s, but other than that, i suck big time. noone explains ghost heat in the game either.
Like you have to earn 'licenses' to move up a weight class. That would be great! I guess the new tier system is supposed to offset the 'noob' factor a bit
This build runs great with 6 sml pulse too! If you drop a couple HS and go for endo you can get a XL 280 the heat difference isnt to bad too. I love the noise of a UAC firing.
Hey Bara :o) Ich habe deinen 4xRAC2 Anni gesehen und mit dem neune Marauder genau den selben Build reingestopft bekommen. Würdest du sagen das der Marauder den besseren Build darstellt wegen der besseren Siluette oder ist der Fakt das die RAC´s in den Armen steckt ein zu großer Nachteil???
Happens. If u'd take notes though u will see that your winrate is much better with higher damage scores. And it depends a LOT on who is on your team since good players simply turn chances into your favour.
The second round was lost because 2 assault mechs only did 45 damage together.
How is that even possible? 🤯

Double clan UAC20 builds are so much fun. And this thing has pretty high mounts!

Love that build! Gonna go try this build out on mw4 mercs lol
Definitely want to try this! Thanks Bara!
I used this build before it was cool! I'm glad to see Baradul likes it, too. :)
=D Commander Baradul givin' orders.
That seemed like some heavy tonnage matches...
that first round was the most disgusting nascar ever
You are epic man! always learning something new from you. Ty for all the MWO content!
I have the Deathstrike too!. Fantastic 'Mech. 2xAC10, 2xERLL, 2xMedPulse. If I want guaranteed damage, I take that bad boy out.
I used to run this, but with 2 HMLs in the arms instead of the 6 ERSLs. It was a lot of fun.
Standard pugs. Tier 1 pilots get into a match with tier 5...
True for couple months now :/ I am watching this from the beggining of the summer holiday

Yikes, 2nd game 6 mechs did under 200 damage and 2 assaults did under 100...ow. You did YOUR bit!
Why is it when I play this mech I immediately get my face fucked off?
It looks like the uac20s didn't jam at all? or did they just unjam that fast or did I didn't notice it?
Wow your team mates nearly cored you in the second game. You barely were touched by the other team.

Uhm...click search walk away for a few min, you will get a match....game isnt that dead
I'm always puzzled to hear that, I often get immediate games or quite rarely wait at most a few minutes.
@@kyneticist I think the longest I've waited at T2 is 4 minutes between matches.
If you're only doing NA or EU server you could try getting matches in the other as well.
There are games where I do 1k damage and somehow we lose, and yet there are games that I could have afk and we still would have won. No idea wtf
