Guild Wars 2

I didn’t think it was true, but turns out the game did decide that I got as far as they wanted me to in terms of PvP progression.

This won’t be a rage or rant, but I hope someone from the developers of this awesome game reads it and looks into this issue that’s coming up with more and more people nowadays.

A picture speaks a thousand words and I have 4 of those plus my match history right now to prove that simply put: the game decided I should stop progressing.

And no, I didn’t suddenly lose all my skill and become so terrible, in fact in the last 4 games that had all been 500 to less than 50 points on our side.

I had never participated in such steamrolls since I started playing leagues so I assume, this is where my progression stops. And just as a sidenote, the enemy players weren’t at all better than me. I won all my 1v1s and rotated well, but our team comp was very off and the individual skill and especially mindset of players on my team just made the win impossible. What else can I do to progress? Buy a new account?

Lol Op, but I thought only noobs( amber/emerald) were supposed to complain about the system? ? And that blowouts were specifically made to segregate folks into division. You mean to tell me you lost a game 500 – 0 in diamond/ legendary?? How is that possible??.

Joke aside, if you don’t want to hurt yourself, I ll advise you to take a break or team up with a friend because it gets worse from there. This is what most folks have being talking about. X vs X is neither fun nor competitve. And your screenshot is the prime example.

I love these screenshots at the end of a game that are supposed to prove something. Bring a recording of the match if you want a proper explanation. Hell, you might’ve had an AFK player and we’ll never know that, no? Steamrolls never happen without a reason. Yes, they also exist in division 6.

Wait, you must have no skill. If you lost. Try learning the builds and classes and when to use each. Try to learn the maps and rotations. At least that is what I was told at a much lower plateau.

Only one afk? You mean to tell us the op team couldn’t even cap a point because of one afk? I suspect there were 5 or at least 3 fakers. So instead of going home, the op and his other teammate went mid and far respectively.

No don’t be inconsiderate, all the OP has to do is listen to the demi gods and post a video of his game; so the demi gods can decide if the OP is worthy for heaven or not.

You’ll just have to take my word for it, there were no AFK’ers (at the beginning), though it seemed like a trend that at least 1 person did say they’d go afk after the first wipe (usually on mid, because of wrong focus target).

I gave you another picture as you can see I did everything I could that game. Those points were coming from my efforts of stealing a beast and capping far after beating someone 1v1.

I had way too many games in this season, when we beat the opponent 500 to 0 where they had no chance. It’s not much more fun the other way around either.

Wow another lopsided games, I swear they were 2 invisible fakers on this game because you can’t lose by 450 point in diamond. Op are you sure your teammates weren’t bots?? I mean Anet MM algorithm is competitive because 75% of the time you get 7 vs 3. So the competition is there. My take is you had bots in your game.

As the “pro’s” say get good, and carry more. You should be able to win the game on your own. They could do it, why can’t you?

But in all seriousness, it’s a floored system. Unless you are the chosen ELS teams this league is not for you. It was made for them. As far as they and ANet are concerned you are a filthy casual/scrub and you are where you belong, untill you get good/a team, and join there ESport utopia.

Yeah, buy new acc it helps, thou actually ask yourself does it even worth it? I mean, i’ve been in the same shoes, now my 2 accs are legendary and 1 is diamond, working on another one right now which is f2p, so i can witness the kittenness of this system again. The fun part thou that only acc which is not leg is my main acc.

But you can keep up pushing this system is rng rather then based on skill, so you may get lucky and finally push through. /cheers.

You don know how? I can assume they got slaughtered in team fight, they tried something else and failed, few people gave up on winning the match. It’s a pretty usual thing to happen lol.

Seeing those diamond games gives me no incentive to try and push through Ruby to get to diamond. Hell, that seriously looks like the amber games from the beginning of the season. Anet is about as good as Blizzard is at making people hate a full game type. First it was WvW and now it’s SPvP.

They might as well just come out and tell us that they’d rather us be doing the raid insead.
