Honestly at lower tiers, feels that players never play objectives (emerald) so thief with great mobility seems to be efficient at capping but you can never 1v1. Necro is really good 1v2 but doesnt really help bad players get better in a team fight. Any suggestions for how to carry the whole team on the back? (I have recetly played 15 games at 1 tier and cant get out of the tier due to team mates are not up to par, very far behind in points and never play objectives)

Can’t carry in 30s meta. In bunk meta, one could carry w/ ele or mes.

stuff thats broken and eZ to play w/o major practice: Condi Reaper, Paladin Scrapper

stuff thats broken but harder to pull of if you havn’t touched the class yet: Power Herald, S&R s/d|staffDruid.

worth to mention: Dragon Hunter(eZ but got issues), Support Tempest(insane support in fights but low damage and you want stuff that kills people to carry.)

imo go Reaper, abuse 2xweapon swap && corrupt boon. noothing can go wrong.

If you want to win as many games as possible. Play bunker ele, scrapper or rev this will increase your win rate. Necromancer weak if you solo q and get bad team by matchmaking.

Depending on the map and the opposing team’s composition, I attempt to carry with Tempest, Scrapper, or Chronomancer. It’s mostly one of the latter two, though.

Anyone who says Zerk is the average Joe build is an average Joe.

Scrapper by far, given that you can even troll 2 good players shouldn’t really happen (happened in proleague finals), hopefully anet nerfs it and addresses either rapid regen or bunker down (hopefully both) as long as every other spec is also looked at in how they are also successful and if other classes are brought up, wait, who am I kidding…… this is anet.

Revs scrapper bunker ele…. especially bunker ele.

Pretty good list, but your choice depends on your playstyle.

If you like to be a 1v1 specialist that occasionally teamfights, scrapper is your choice. Rotations here are pretty easy…just look for 1v1’s mostly.

If you want to roam around, deliver high bursts, and occasionally 1v1, rev is your choice. Rotations here are slightly harder, you want to look for place you can +1 and finish targets.

If you want to support your team and win teamfights, bunker ele is your choice. Rotations here are hardest, as you need to constantly think about where you can best be an asset to your team (teamfights), but gets harder after a teamfight win or wipe, where you need to figure out which point to go to (requires some awareness of where opponents are headed towards). Also, if your team rotates terribly (for instance, leaving you in a situation to constantly 1v1 rather than letting you go to the teamfight) then it really hurts. Also, you will want to vary your build depending on the opposing team. If they are necro heavy, consider swapping earth for arcana, taking cleansing water and invigorating torrents for maximum team cleanse. You have the tools to offer pretty strong counters to common opponents (dragon hunters with projectile hate, reapers in teamfights as a cleansebot with some cc on called target) that seem to be popular.

To be honest, I have seen some really good bunker ele carry the whole team fights (and ofc bad ones dying in a second).

Edit: BTT: The best way to carry in SoloQ is not playing 1 profession, but multiple. Your team needs a roamer play revenant or thief; a point holder? Scrapper; Team-Support? Ele or Druid.

This is also very true, and also why bunker ele is a great choice for the most part. Most people like to play 1v1-hero and dps specs, while fewer are support-minded. If you play support competently, you almost make your team unbeatable if the other team has none. Kind of like how you loved seeing guardians on your team for the first 2 years of the game b/c it usually meant a great chance to win teamfights.

Imo scrapper is the best class to carry with, just force a 2v1 and hold it or win most of your 1v1 arounds, while having decent damage/support/mobility if needed for X situation. Also, you have crazy rezz potential, and this coupled with the fact that the enemy team isnt coordinated makes it so ez to rezz

Rev and scrapper are overturned, so either of those.

That being said, I think Druid can carry quite well, as you can pull allies out of enemy fire for a quick revive and have good mobility to out rotate enemy. This works less well against really good players, but if you are trying to carry, I assume your opponents are not that good either…

Definitely Ele. It can bunker a point and give amazing support for teammates at the same time (heal/condicleanse/auras/boons). A midfight of two vaguely similar skilled teams (usually 3v3 or 4v4 in pug matches atm) between a grp without Ele and with Ele will almost always see the Team with Ele win. Rev’s are good DPS dealers and Scrapper good bruisers, but can be replaced by other classes relatively easily (DH and Druid respectively for example), while there is simply no other class that offers what Ele has to offer atm. I’m really surprised how few Eles are around in Pug matches, considering that ele is basically the new bunker mes when it comes to carrying solo Q.

The Vermillion vs The Abjured series at the Pro League Final was a prime example for this on the highest level. Matches were relatively close before with Vermillion even taking a match, but when Vermillion removed their ele to have 2 Revs while keeping their Ranger it turned into an absolute steamroll for The Abjured.

Yes bunker ele. You would be suprised how long 2-3 bad players try to kill one around a neutral point while the eles team hold an easy 2cap in a 4on2.

Scrapper is the most OP class atm,only reason it not played as much as necro is the skill cap that class require.

You personally might not like Thief, but on Ruby I have already encountered some really strong thieves (very fast decaps, strong burst to finish off anyone out of position, getting out quickly when focus shifted towards them, fast finishes with the new elite).

They seem to be in the same position as ele → the skill floor just jumped and most players can’t keep up with the challenge.

These thieves will encouter a wall. At some point people are watching minimap as well and you wont decap easily anymore.

tempest is by far the best one for this. you will win most of the matches where other team doesnt have one. it just contributes so much to a teamfight.

Alternatively (or if there is already a tempest in your team) go for the scrapper. Its the most OP class atm

You may want to actually try it. Bunker ele is the most troll spec in the game right now. It can easily hold a 1v2 until a 3rd comes.
