Story 1) You really tried to be nice and helpful by explaining to the new comers the basics of the maps. If you get a newbie in your team, the standard way to handle it is to ask him/her to stay at the home node, don’t die and call incoming; but since such players don’t even know how the cap circle works they keep getting trolled and they wander away, leaving the node to be stolen for most of the game. Then even worse, they feel embarrassed and log out.
Story 2) You find your 4 teammates being trolled around the orb in Spirit Watch without owning one single node. Then after the match you look at the ranks and you realize you are in a team of rank 1-20s playing against a team of 30-50s.
Story 3) Your teammate with a rabbit finisher and combat healer title tries to take down an enemy on the Skyhammer cannon but keeps getting knocked off ledge. So you go to help him even though you know you are in great disadvantage since the portal is bugged. You tell your rabbit teammate that he/she should practice at the normal queue to get a better idea of what this map is about. Then your rabbit teammate says you are an kitten for not typing (2 paragraphs?) to explain how this map works.
Story 4) At the Temple of the Silent Storm your 4 teammates run in one by one and get wiped at Gate. Your home is stolen without resistance. You are at a far node and you know an opponent thief is hiding around waiting for help. So you stayed and your team who just died thinks you are afk because you didn’t die. After the match, you look at the player ranks and again you know why.
Do these sound familiar to you?
Good luck guys xD
