I really wish ppl who complain about being stuck in lower divisions due to “bad teams” would post videos of their games. Something tells me their teams aren’t only reason they are losing.
Are you that guy who has been rushing into mid again, again and again solo vs 3 ? Somewhere mid diamond ? Sfxas or smth like that revenant ?
I wish people who say git gud make those kind of vids to get a good laugh at.
I play thief…….. i never played rev mid diamond
i do think that it would be helpful if people complaining about matchmaking would post videos, i am sure there is plenty of things they could improve
Strange, his id was Cynz xD
I did play rev for achieve but not mid diamond lol
And generally if i do end up in 1v3 situation regardless the class i play it is usually because that point was open, my team wiped and enemy zerged me. But surely continue to spit your salt, i may have vial for it.
Am i ? I was on winning team lol. You was a burden to your team sadly. Few guys from there wasn’t so bad. For “Mid diamond” sorry i was there at the moment i have no idea where you was. And no, you went mid, when your team tried to play side points u rushed into us and died. It was not open.
So advice to you, don’t make those kind of plays.
If you say i rushed into 3 people then i guess this is how it was. /eyesroll
@Fluffball.8307: i spent plenty of time in ruby. It is definitely hell in there but really mainly because you can’t lose tiers in emerald/sapphire so eventually everyone gets there (the good and the bad) and you have very mixed games. Anything below ruby is doable though, you can play around the bad team.
As far as ruby goes, probably best way to get out of it is to play ele and maybe duoq.
My point is i think people should really post videos of their matches. I am sure they could get couple good tips how they could have turned those games (so maybe they can do it next time).
Have you taken a good look at the reply ppl got when they posted a video? I’m the first one to admit it is true that in the videos many players had a good deal they could have done better and many participants did give constructive advises. HOWEVER, at what cost? They also had pretty lame and mean come backs and truly unfair BS coming along.
Even high ranking ppl have been quite shy about exposing themselves to critiques and you expect ppl to feel comfortable exposing themselves to such a clusterkitten and clearly not impartial audience? You know full well that nobody is perfect and that what the comment will all be about are the mistakes big or small that will suddenly take all the place. It’s very likely going to be a joke if this exercise is done on the forum. People inviting others to play with them in the game I believe them but ppl who ask for vid are at best suspicious to me. Specially if they themselves are a bit shy on what they ask of others.
Unlike customer support in game, forums mods are very serious about posters harassing others. You can just report them and i promise you they will see trolls banned really fast.
Does that make you feel better? Does that mean you will show us how you play in a video just to give us the example to follow?
I mean, you still have a dark alley in front of you… does knowing there are police officers somewhere that can apply the law make you go down that alley?
Would showing me playing in diamond really help people playing in emerald? And yes it actually would make me feel better. I know how strict mods are on this forums. I highly doubt majority of posters here are really that eager to sit out 2-4 weeks banns.
@Buffalo Bruiser.3567: most “pros” left lower divisions long time ago (couple smurfs aside).
Well, ppl learn mostly by watching and mimicking so why wouldn’t they get something to learn and understand out of your example?
If they want to mimic they might as well watch pro league players twitch. Thing is, it won’t get them far. As matches in lower divisions are different compared to higher divisions. People in lower divisions don’t focus target, they don’t peel for each other, you can’t rely on team, you can’t rely on teammates to win 2v2 fights, zerging 4v1 is common thing there. On other hand, enemy teams just make as many mistakes so you can abuse it. You can’t rely on enemy stupidity in higher divisions. You may watch higher division games all you want, you will never get the same environment in lower divisions.
This.
Just a few examples off the top of my head:
They don’t res, if they do, it’s too late.
They don’t burst, bunk, cap/decap.
They like zerging points together as a team of 3-4.
They stomp off point when we don’t have the point, and they have a range weapon.
They like to cap points like home with other players;
– I’m capping home, people still like to cap home with me, I type “WTF GTFO, GO”, but it’s faster just me going somewhere else without typing.
They perform no action when in downstate, like at least auto attack the one that’s down for them, that’s why I targetted that one, but no you want to just sit there when you can potentially rally. However it takes too long to sit there and type out the explanation as to why that player is wrong on every level, all you can do is syh.
They like zerging npc’s together.
They like helping me fight two at far but they just die without trying to escape.
I refuse to do team fights, here’s why.
I do team fights I’m supposed to rely on my team to res, burst, bunk, decap/cap, something…If no one performs any of those tasks there is no use for me to do team fights, I can’t rely on them, so I go far solo, or decap far, or 1v1 mid, 1v2 mid even, just to wait for the rest other four to help but since 4 of them can’t beat 3 I will loose to 2 and have to escape out.
I can go on and on and on, but I think you get my point.
Edit, I never cared about my win rate as that is not a real statistic that can be measured accurately. So many people log before a loss or legitimately DC, etc, I never log before a loss, my win rate is not artificially inflated or manipulated.
