Guild Wars 2

How do you get 40AR if you only get 25 max via accessories rings and amulet (+5AR each).
What is the maximum AR and what am I missing? Is there ascended armor now?

Yup I agree, the reward system in pvp isn’t very good at all. I have over 300 unopened tournament match reward chests, because all I get is junk if I open them. They need to add bag of gems, bag of gold, dyes, and rarely a pvp armor. Also need to make tournament chests harder to get so the value of them is greater and more exciting to get a chest.

Right now it all feels like freebies and nothing special. Because I get tournament chests like there no tomorrow because all you do is win 1 quick game over and over and over again.

There’s a Funny bug with this gear btw. If you salvage it you get pve materials

Really, have you gotten ectos? Its about time you can get ectos via pvp.

I see people tpvping, so tpvp system isn’t broke, all they need to do is simply disband us. But the only problem I see is that anet doesn’t have a player support button.

All they have is a /bug report and they will reply when they can, which is normally a week or a month.

In Everquest you could request GM support via petition and you would get help very quickly, longest I waited was an hour for there help. In Guildwars 2, there isn’t such thing, theres only a bug report.

All I need is to get disbanded, or cleared of this. That’s it, simple disconnect and reconnect on there end.

You use a stealth trap, and keep is very small, I could understand SMC but a keep, very easy to weed out thieves. Play staff ele and use fire 2 and 5, use earth and water 4 to slow them down. If your a knockback class, when they go in shadow refuge, knock them out of it.

Aint hard.

I did solo que, then right after that I was told to leave gw2 for update, I did update and ever since I’ve been stuck and I’ve been stuck in tpvp que for 3 days and UNABLE to leave que, clicking on leave que DOES NOTHING.

I’ve submitted 4 bug reports with blocking progression checkmarked, anet has not responded and has done NOTHING thus far so I’m taking it to the forums.

GET ME OUT OF THIS QUE SO I CAN TPVP.

I swear there needs to be a button called, need immediate help. This isn’t a bug, this is hinderance to my account. I don’t have time to wait a month before they come across this issue and finally disband me from this que.

Mystery.7392:

We need a loot pet! That’d be amazing :x

This.

It would give mini’s a true meaning in GW2.

Doomknight.7923:

i just tried with 100 rares. only got 1 ecto IF i got any.
Start the Ecto hoarding wars. expecting 35 silver ectos in a week

I think the ectos will continue to drop in price, I bought ectos awhile back because everyone was crazy they would rise due to mega bosses only giving a rare once a day, my ectos, I’m down 20s per ecto right now.

As for your salvage for ecto, it’s probably duegon exotics only because I still getting 3 ectos.

Solo que is still working as intended, I’m going against premade that’s top 200 on leaderboards at 80% twice.

Excalibur.9748:

WvW players don’t have any laurels at all.

By making it require laurels, you are requiring the WvW player to do extensive PvE just to get any ascended equipment.

Please reconsider.

You don’t have no laurels? that’s some bullkitten right there… Lets look at dailies, 2 WvW and gather, 50 kills, underwater 25 kills, salvage, group event. But obviously a month of playing WvW you couldn’t even complete 1 daily, how sad.. Really its sad. Because there are gathering nodes everywhere and they are normally the T1 ones so everyone can salvage, 50 kills comes from taking over camps and towers, killing guards etc. underwater event happens when you go kill the kraits in the middle of the zone, salvage is when you salvage items that say salvage that you get from bags (pls tell me you salvage items), group event is from DOING A GROUP EVENT taking a tower and what not.

Haha karma, please if they was to add ascended gear through karma it would be 1 million karma, you’d rather chose the laurels over the million karma. Because ascended gear isn’t suppose to be easily gotten. It takes a month of doing guild events, if you could get it by karma and WvW people wouldn’t do guild events.

If I was to guess, you guys wishing it was karma are laurel hoarders. But don’t worry, I’m a laurel hoarder too.

Well looks like we have more living story and this time we are getting 2 rares for meta event, don’t expect to see much JQ online in WvW, as always living story takes priority over WvW. When the living story ends, prepare for punishment brought to you buy JQ.

Jumper.9482:

Dodge queue fixed,
Shadow Return now extremely buggy.

Yeah… not worth.

Mesmer Illusionary Leap… is still buggy, welcome to GW2 life.

At least they promised better server connection, I’ll have to test that out and see for myself.

Do you believe in RNG in tournaments? Do you believe that a rank 8 can get carried to high leaderboard percentile via other team has afk, disconnect, ragequitter. And his team carries him to that high percentile everytime? Until up to a point when you face premades, that’s when he starts dropping, and rank 8 isn’t enough games to solidly put him in a spot of where he should be at.

Rank isn’t everything, but you don’t know anyone in solo q, I’d rather have a safe team of people around my rank rather than chancing it with some rank 8 (which 70% of them are a liability to the team).

Yes, do the following, enter GW2, bring up hero panel, goto achievements, goto pvp conquerer, put your cursor over gladiator. It will tell you “Get your feet wet rookie”.

Means keep playing, some stuff is learned faster by just toughing it up and keep playing even though you get owned, because eventually you’ll learn what to do when where and why.

I could tell you to bunker a point, but you wont learn how to team fight, you wont learn the tips and tricks about the map, you wont learn enemy predictions. Just get out there and keep on keeping on.

Walorx.5129:

To be fair, they were a RARE item. Not everyone was supposed to get a pair, that’s what makes them special to have if you were lucky enough to snag a pair! Don’t worry, there’ll be plenty more “rare” items that you can shoot for in future events.

What this guy said, and point of an item being rare or unique is, you’d have to be around during that timeframe to earn them.

And no they aren’t that rare, cuz I rarely open my chests and guess what I have ALL THREE OF EM plus 1 on my toon for a total of 4. Still got a lot of chests stashed for whatever is next. BALLA kittenES!!!

Motoko.2875:

Shoutcasting depth on a boring and poorly made PvP game.

Good idea!

Conquest mode is pretty intense, especially when you triple cap the other team when your at 400 and they’re at 460 and they’re down a man or 2 and your holding out strong.

Its only as fun as how good everyone is, obviously some people suck at conquest so they never get any intense in the zone moments so they rage it every second.

May 14th
NEW FEATURES AND CONTENT
World vs. World
•Obsidian Sanctum, the jumping puzzle in the Eternal Battlegrounds, has been moved to its own WvW map. •Entering the puzzle will take players out of the Eternal Battlegrounds.
•Leaving will take players back to Lion’s Arch.
•Added a new vendor: “Traps and Tricks Outfitter.”
•Traps have been added as a new purchasable consumable utility item. Two unique variants are available. •When placed, traps last for one hour.
•Players may only have one of a given trap type deployed at a time.
•Traps will disappear when a player leaves the map.
•Traps are sold by the vendor for 15 badges and 525 karma; they will stack to 250 and are account-bound.
•It takes a 4-second channel to place at feet.
•Placing a trap uses very short-range ground targeting to assist in orientation.
•Placed traps have a 600×90 rectangular trigger area; only enemies can trigger them.
•Once triggered, traps affect up to 20 enemies within a range of 1200.
•Traps cost 10 supply to place.
•Supply Removal Trap •Removes 5 supply from enemies affected by the trap.
•Stealth Disruptor Trap •Removes stealth from enemies and reveals them for 30 seconds, preventing stealth.

Structured PvP
•Reverted a change to PvP dailies that increased their difficulty.
•Reworded some custom arena tooltips to be less confusing.

Take a look at the difference between PvP and WvW.
1. The WvW team is clearly motivated and the PvP developer team isn’t
2. The WvW clearly offers great rewards for playing WvW now (precursors and ascended gear are obtained now) and PvP isn’t.
3. The WvW developer team doesn’t take a vacation when they introduce things, the PvP developer team goes on vacation (hence why 2 things for PvP may 14th, WvW gets a ton of things, and TONS MORE may 28th, THEY ARE CLEARLY MOTIVATED)

I remember awhile back when I posted about may 14th patch not getting kitten, someone replied, because the big PvP patch is coming out later…. This aint no big PvP patch, WvW has more stuff added, I’m more motivated to play WvW now because I get rewarded for my time, they continue to improve and make WvW more enjoyable.

Why should I play pvp when simple mechanics (solo que, not get points towards my title with the tournament rewards) and leaderboards are broken.

THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE I SEE IS PvP is too busy fixing there content, undoing there content (pvp dailies)…. While WvW is too busy ADDING new content.

Oh and last time I checked, WvW is bigger, more prone to bugs… But look whose too busy fixing there content, it sure aint the WvW team. WvW PUT AN END TO CULLING, whats PvP team done that’s so significant? Even the PvE team is behind the curves with the WvW team because PvE culling is still broken. You have 20 monsters you cannot see due to culling which is some bullkitten because you don’t get any loot since you cannot see them.

djlowballer.7460:

1.) Makes no sense. Rank indicates nothing but time spent in the Mists. I am rank 11 but I read the forums plan builds and play 1-2 matches per night focusing on improving my game. I’m no pro but I have a clue how to actually play and now try to do 5v5 whenever I can.

I don’t want to be teamed with someone improving there game, I want to be teamed with people around my rank.
If only they made it so every 10 ranks when you que’d say at rank 40 you’d be on a team with nothing but rank 40-49, and if it puts me against rank 10-19, you can then talk about rank not meaning kitten when you get your kitten handed to you.

If they had a system like that I would always be looking forward to getting to the next tier of rank. Because you know you’ll win more games because you have people that already have there game down and not “improving it, working on it”.

Diablo 3 was pretty bad, Diablo2 is so much better.

For my favorite pvp game, it was EQ when they had open world pvp server that was team based on good evil and neutral.

Nothing beats open world pvp.

This WvW kitten isn’t open world pvp so start with that kitten.

The only thing I liked about everyone’s post so far is, separate leaderboards for all the professions.

As for balancing, yes this game is balanced.
Whose the best bunker? Guardian
Whose the best melee team dps? Warrior
Whose the best ranged team dps? Engineer
Whose the best melee solo dps? Mesmer
Whose the best ranged solo dps? Ranger
Whose the most mobile? Thief
Whose the best with conditions? Necromancer

Elementalist sssucks, well you could consider them the best condition removal if you’d like.

Theres more you could compare with, but looking at it, not 1 class is truly the best, because balancing isn’t perfect (nothing is) but its looking pretty balanced right now.

If they added a bank or blt to hearts of mist, that would be the new hub for pve because basically you go play pve, your in some zone like frostgorge sound, you got stuff you need to put in bank? Click on hearts of mist, goto bank, click hearts of mist again and your back in frostgorge sound, you didn’t have to pay anything and you have a free bank now, those bank and blt express would be worthless because going to hearts of mist and clicking on hearts of mist again doesn’t reset you in pve, however going to hearts of mist then to LA resets you in pve.

They need to do more PvP stuff then worry about PvE stuff. Your just lazy if you cant run to LA for the bank and back, it doesn’t take that long, 15 seconds really worth complaining about?

All I got from this is you hate necros, and you probably play a thief because you get eaten up by AE, and you want your conditions to last longer. Lemme tell ya, whatever poison thieves are putting on me that lasts 20 seconds or so, pretty much needs a nerf.

There should be something called, out of combat condition removal, haven’t been in combat or attacked in 10 seconds you start healing up, none of this poison that lasts until you remove it bullkitten.

You want to nerf everyones AoE, stuff like 100b should get nerfed to only hit 1 thing too then, shortbow AoE should only hit 1 target too then. Have shortbow 5 skill use 3 addition initiative whenever you shoot at someplace that doesn’t have a target. I don’t like people trying to nerf other classes so there class is OP.

Class balance looks good too me, only class I think that has a lot of loving right now is rangers. They can evade attacks while doing damage, great survivability, great range, great mobility, great conditions like immobilize, best downed state. I see them pretty much every game, I rarely see ele’s anymore.

Blackmoa.3186:

pls not, if you farm top r30 in hotjoin you are likely to be way worse than a r10 taht got his rank in tournaments. There are already way to mayn “hotjoin heros” in tournaments and r40 is now more like the old r1…..

I agree with this guy, people going from rank 1 to 30 in hotjoins is bad. You should start out at rank 1 while in tpvp that way you become a lot better at rank 30 in tpvp.

Also agree that you should get -2 glory when not fighting against more than 2 people on a node, because people shouldn’t be bunkering nodes and most of time 1 guy will go far, and you shouldn’t waste your time fighting, better to give him a free node and go elsewhere.

One thing I’m really impressed about is how great these tpvp servers are, I know it can be rough to handle 10 people in a game, but I only experience lag spikes or skill lag 2-6 times a game. I have 50MB of internet SHF satellite connection so it isn’t my end. Very impressed with there servers though!!!

Some people haven’t played in a month and are sitting on the leaderboards, it deserves a reset, but it also needs to knock people off that haven’t played in over a week.

I’d just like to thank anet for a fabulous job they are doing with the matchmaking system.

Even though we was 4 man team entire game, due to fabulous matchmaking system anet provides us with I was teamed with high ranking people, because rank matters, and we was able to pull out the win 1 man short against low ranked people.

As long as anet continues to put me with people around my rank, I wont have a problem losing against newbs (rank 20 and below) when we are in a 4v5 situation.

Again, THANK YOU ANET PVP DEVELOPERS!!!

Keep up the good work!!!=) =) =)

I agree it should be based on winning a game. In GW1 it was, and I also think it should be in tournament games only, this game rank is a joke you just zerg to get rank, there is no skill or teamplay that must be involved. You can be a joke rank 80 in GW2, but in GW1 its impossible to become a joke rank 80 because you have to EARN it by winning real games.

GW1 gives you ZERO glory/rank points in hotjoins.

And everyone can say GW1 pvp is a lot better than GW2.
1. The players get the respect they deserve (everyone sees there guild/team name when they win multiple games)
2. THEY get the most points towards ranking up (not some hotjoin hero, look at the best players rank, is he r60? NOPE, some hotjoin hero is RANK 60)
3. The matchmaking IS good
4. They got more than 2 teams fighting each other at once (this is pvp, not gvg, 1 premade facing another premade is pretty much gvg… GW2 has CRAPPY guild stuff for PvP, all you can do really is 10% more influence, THATS IT)
5. Theres more modes, I like conquest but I get bored of it and in GW1 you had multiple types of PvP, multiple modes as well.

Oh I forgot, yes the server size is a joke. I remember awhile back like 4 months ago, there use to be things called dynamic events. I went to lone post yesterday on JQ server which is full. nobody there. I goto jelako waypoint, nobody there either. I remembered when the champ abomination in cursed shores would go down immediately, hes been up for days. The only zone that has overflow is southsun cove, and the player capacity isn’t that big either. THATS THE ONLY ZONE. every other zone is empty or nothing going on.

JQ being full is some bullkitten, because it aint nowhere near full, and recently there isn’t anyone in wvw except in eb and sometimes jq bl but nowhere else.

I would like them to increase the zone sizes, I’m sick of waiting 2 hours to enter southsun on my server.

On everquest, there are no player limit to any zones. Guild lobby has 400+ players and that zone is extremely tiny.

Would be nice if you could make the crystals from the stones via mystic forge. I have 100% map completion and over 100 stones but 0 crystals. I have ABSOLUTELY ZERO use for stones. When I finally made a new character and spent money on level 80 exotics that’s when I realized the stones don’t work on level 80 gear, wish I’d known this so I would buy level 79 exotics instead.

Why do you have to buy gems in order to transmute level 80 gear?

Just play a ranger, they too OP right now. Look at this screenshot.

“Too many guys doing nothing”
“Whats the point if we cant even hold a point”

Good amount of damage, good amount of survivability, fast downed self rez (always win the downed fights 1v1), good amount of range, good amount of mobility.

There aint 1 thing a ranger isn’t good at.

Vadio.5439:

I crash
But i leave one bonus for guys

http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/1276/gw097y.jpg
(for n reason tag [img][/img] dont work)

Is that a guild treb? That’s pretty awesome, I haven’t seen any of those on JQ.
Still waiting on the wvw developers to make the tanks that you see in ascalon zones that the charr used to take over ascalon.

Since you forgot about it, you can make up for it by adding rich orichalcum ore, should be right near the stones were mesmers do there ports so people can camp there too.

Endgame = the best thing to do after you have the rewards. After you have all you can/ want to get from tpvp, which is the gear (obviously leaderboard ranks don’t mean kitten right now) hotjoins is the best thing to do, a lot better to do over tpvp.

Yes I’d also prefer a rank 40 over a rank 10. I don’t care if rank isn’t an indicater of skill, it should be, and you have no one else to blame for the match except yourself if paired with people around your rank.

It obviously takes time to get to rank 40 and that’s a lot of time, by the time you achieve that rank you know whats going on.

And those people that suck at rank 40, its most likely because they are not playing there main profession, some people want to get all the champion titles.

The only time I’ll accept a low ranker is when my premade group invites them, because they invited him because hes obviously good enough to hang out with us, other than that I don’t want to play with low ranks and shouldn’t have to play with them on my team.

I just received word that EMP left JQ to DB is that so when SoR knocks BG out of T1 JQ will have ties with DB via EMP so they can take out the behemoth SoR. They decided to goto DB once they heard words of talk between SoR and the IRON BEHEMOTH from EU and that this is the only way to stop the BEHEMOTH SoR brought to the NA. I’m very excited and cannot wait for DB to take BG spot because we need to take the behemoth out and teach him his place and that NA is no place for a EU BEHEMOTH. Its great timing as well because the living story should be over and done with so our numbers will be fierce and mighty SoR will be nothing but an insect compared to us with this great timing.

Theres 1 guild/team I don’t see on your list. I’m not sure if they want to be on the list either but only clues I’m giving is that they #1 NA guild, they are THE top 5 (ALL OF EM) on NA leaderboards.

You ever played an ele, used downed skill 2, then look at your death breakdown? Appearently that skill does high amounts of damage as well, talk about overkill. That skill doesn’t even do damage to you either nor kills you.

Yes, we all know when WvW introduces something like traps last patch they don’t go on vacation the next patch like the PvP team does.

The WvW team offers a lot to its community unlike the PvP team does, hence why the WvW community is always hyped up about next weeks matchup and you see threads with 20+ pages because people are really excited about score updates.

In PvP leaderboards are so broken, people can literally sit at rank 1 and stay rank 1 theres no reason to do leaderboard updates. PvP community is not enthused right now compared to the enthusiasm as the WvW community.

Looks like WvW team will get the team of the month again, because they are outgoing, hard workers, and dedicated to improvement.

There is no WvW soag and they put out 110% everytime.

They let the results speak for themselves, they don’t need to do any speaking after that.

Anyone else notice that sometimes when you use Illusionary Leap it doesn’t spawn any clone and it starts the reset timer on the skill.

I notice this happens when your out of range, when your not in line of sight of target and sometimes while your moving near your target.

Is there any word or fix that anyone knows about this skill, because I get quite frustrated when I’m trying to setup a combo and this skill does nothing at all and starts the reset timer.

Ah so the people who like rewards are 14 year old children.

Yes, if they only play for rewards. It’s okay to play “for fun” and be happy if there are additional rewards. But some people are really playing only if you give them some reward.

You haven’t explained why this is a bad thing. Sounds like merely a preference to me. Can you show that one way is better than the other?

You are under r10 i guess. And hotjoin kings are the worst ones who can’t be called PvP players.

Tournaments give better gear, gives rating and champion titles. You can be a hotjoin r30 and still play like an r5.

I’m r40. And 7k xp away from Ransacker.

I’m r40 as well, 70k xp away from Ransacker….. I wonder why…
Say how many tPvP games you do…. oh yeah I did more than you no wonder why I’m 70k away from ransacker and your 7k away because I’m not doing the endgame PvP, I thought it was tPvP but I was wrong.. I guess I’ll just get in top 300 or so in leaderboards and not play anymore so I can make get ransacker because I don’t want to be r46 without ransacker you know.

And that’s why the best of the best don’t do tpvp all the time anymore. Click on that attachment, I need 70k more till ransacker and I do tpvp a lot, this is some of that bullkitten.

You ever play a warrior, used downed skill 3? You know why you die? That’s how you die with IoL.

Yeah I know he wants the easy way to level 80 in PvE so he can at least be competitive in WvW against another level 80, even though the level 80 will have full ascended gear and exotics with best runes and sigils and a legendary against his magic items and minor runes and what not.

Takes months to get all that stuff you haven’t got it yet on a single character, exotics and the best runes, ascended gear and legendaries aren’t cheap yah know.

Its okay to get beaten up like a chump in WvW even though your leaderboard rank in PvP is in top 100, in WvW its all about the gear, level and some amount of skill if your trying to PvP people, zerg v zerg is a little different, that’s about numbers.

End game PvE is CoF P1, because that’s what people do after they did everything in the game and fastest way to get legendary through playing the game is CoF P1.

Endgame PvP is hotjoins because after you gotten everything you wanted from tournaments, the fastest way to get to titles like mist walker is through hotjoins because tournament rewards doesn’t count towards titles as well as zero wait for a quick game that you and your elite friends play and always join red team so you know you’ll be getting 400 points a game via kills and skirmisher mostly is through hotjoins.

You don’t even need friends you just need to see what team the people with most points are on, and you join that team and what they do is avoid fighting the zerg but fight the stragglers or people trying to win the hotjoin (because he cares greatly about hotjoin wins… lol) and basically 1 or 2 people is 15 or 30 points for however many people he’s rolling with (average of 5 or more) all those people get those points so its very beneficial for basically a guild or team to farm hotjoins rather than tournaments if your guild or team is trying to make themselves look good rank wise.

If you haven’t notice some of the top 100 people don’t tournament that much anymore, they are farming hotjoins for ranks because hotjoin heroes are out ranking them. Just look at there wins, some of them don’t play for days anymore (well they don’t play tpvp) just look at top 5 team sleepy, been top 5 for days and haven’t played a game, SAAtar he doesn’t play tpvp much anymore either, hence why he was at 1108 for a long time and barely moved.

Fact is hotjoins offer much better reward (which is glory) and that’s why the suppose best of the best rarely even do tournaments anymore because 1. you get titles like ravager, mist walker, etc. slower 2. pvp rank up slower 3. If your rank 1 and want to stay rank 1 YOU JUST DONT PLAY ANYMORE 4. OH YAH rewards are just terrible. I got 400 unopened chests, wanna know why?? The rewards sucks is why. I noticed that you get rewards your level and not just tournament stuff, so I’ll just wait until after I reach rank 80 through hotjoins to open them to maximize my deposit to salvage ratio.

He wants someway to transfer your glory to levels in pve so he can wvw without getting owned because his lvl 17 gear and traits have no match for level 80 traited with 25AR ascended gear and a legendary newb strolling along and owning him.

I’ve played over 1500 games with this leaderboards, what I noticed is that you win, you go up 3%, you lose you go down 3%. When your on the leaderboards you win you advance around 100 ranks, you lose you lose around 100 ranks.

If your watching your win/loss streak while on leaderboards, if your up 5 wins and your at rank 440, it will take 5 consecutive losses to knock you off the leaderboards no matter who you play.

It doesn’t matter who you play, if your unlucky and lose to the top 5 ranked leaderboard people at 40%, you will be 37% next time it updates if you haven’t played a game.

Yeah I play on my DDR dance pads and dance around people all day long while using my Dangerous Hunts gun for aiming and using skills, im an expert hunter my best deer weighed at 396 pounds and had 22 points, so you know I’ma destroy people with my hunting skills.

I only play warrior because I don’t have enough buttons to play another class, very good at 100b people down.

Psychogene.6780:

It’d be like rewarding the rich and punishing the poor.

No, its more of rewarding the skilled and punishing the unskilled players. Unskilled players stay at low ranks and skilled players advance in ranks as they should.

The current mmr does set you up against people around your leaderboard rank so you will be facing harder teams as you win more.

It is impossible to glory farm a tournament without any skill, so the skilled will be advancing in ranks faster and will also encourage more teams as it should.

If you want esports your not going to have it with a bunch of solo que’ers.
With a lot of premades and teams you’ll get esports.

The current system supports solo que’ers because the tournament is only 1 round and reward if they luck out.

If they had a bigger tournament with the rewards for top 3, you will see less solo que and more people making teams and looking for more to join them.
You decide who you want to support, but as of right now its leaning greatly to the solo que, and anyone can be rank 80 without any skill by hotjoin farming and that takes zero skill.

You see the top 100 players? They are mostly ranked 40- 59 players, however you have hotjoin heroes that are rank 60 +.

How do you feel about zero skilled player being the highest ranked in GW2?
In GW1 you had to win real games, (ZERO rank points in hotjoin matches) to make rank, you guys should be THANKFUL anet hands you out free glory towards ranking up.

How about top 50 leaderboard rank team going up against 65% rank team.

Do you think the top 50 should go up against people 35% and 950 ranks away from them? Ya im pretty sure people inbetween were not playing so the great almighty queing system sets a solo q vs a top 50 team…..

Play against enough solo q’s you’ll get to rank 1 no problem, just keep avoiding the premades.

I’m telling ya’ll you put the good players on your friends list, que up when they are already in a game to avoid them, that’s how you’ll get to high rank with a decent team.

I’m sure you guys experienced the same premade pounding you in consecutive games as well.

Nah your wrong, P/D is really good, but requires lots of skill, timing and setting up, on the other hand HGH engy is powerful as well, but requires no skill no timing and setting up, you just drink elixirs and throw nades at enemies. HGH requires no skill to be asset to the team, but you can always get better as well and provide a bigger asset.

When I was watching team sleepy own everyone on that twitch video, I was thinking to myself, if ostrich eggs wasn’t there they probably wouldn’t do so hot because a good HGH engy can make a huge difference, and you saw that by the undefeated streak they went, they didn’t let a single team get past 350 out of like 10 games against other premades and a team consisted of the supposed best of the best.
