Silver to diamond lol. Are you incapable of reading a full post? Seriously its not too difficult to just not respond. He got to masters quickly as well but didn’t mention it bc thats when he started partying with ppl (from diamond 5 to masters).
All these people accusing Sami of being bad gamer and cheating the system.
Anything other than admitting to themselves they aren’t as good as they think they are. You wanna know the secret to climbing? Be better than the other team.
hax
What are you even doing posting on this forum? Seriously, what do you contribute?

Nobody accused Sami of anything like that. Are you her friend that she sent to say that entire post??? Lol.
Almost sounds like you may be part of the problem. A plat player playing in silver.
A lot more than you do. It’s almost like this place has become a social thing mixed in with the usual shooting the breeze game talk that doesn’t accomplish anything. This SirFuzzi character is telling others to get a hobby who come here to at least discuss the game. It seems like he or she is the one in need of a hobby. Spends way too much time around here without anything to justify it.
Well I do get bad lose streaks against stacks. But I’m a casual one account player.
Running solo in league with 57% wr this season with 150ish wins currently at g2, highest rank I’ve ever been, and hearing platinum and diamond smurfs stuck in silver just makes my day.
Cheerio all and thanks for the good vibes.
Imagine calling it exploiting for playing the game and simple just because you don’t belong there you climb out.
Lol dude get real, both of you.
close enough!!!
at least hopefully you are playing the game
Where is the problem? As long as I get new matches and people who are trying to give their best I am fine with it. My most hated games were those, where people are trolling, feeding or baby-raged and we lost from the draft.
cough Imagine that even good players can have a lose streak. cough
Haha abusing player invites me to get out of all this and invites me to try get real. You guys seem to be laughing forever
Have you ever thought that the problem may be just in people like you? Mester obvious “ROFL”
Just chill out abit, no-one is saying the game is “flawless”. But experienced players who has been around and been in higher leagues will know… That if you can’t climb out of Silver to Gold & Platinum, where your rank was previously. Then you’re most likely just barely a Plat player.
Suggestion/tip for you:
Reconsider what heroes you’re trying to climb with.
If you lose, stay focused. If you get frustrated after a loss and remain frustrated for the next match, it will affect your gameplay. Take a break when this happens. Go out, play something else, watch a TV-show. Try to minimize the time you spend into hots in frustration.
Another tip. Check your winrate with a particular hero. Try to climb with it.
In any game where you want people to go competetive, it has to be backed by a non competetive area for those who realy dont care. QM on that is not enough as each match still has that massive ‘we must win’ orientation.
This is the main issue for moba’s in general. And the reason why other game types do better. The main diffirence is that those games allow those non competetive players to play the way they want:
- There is no heavy ‘we must win’ orientation either, a loss is equaly rewarded compared to a win. And no one realy cares a lot. But trying to go for one is rewarded anyway (Pubg - where some people just constantly hot drop for the early combat)
- They contain heavy carrying potential so the better player can force himself to rise. Or a less skilled but very competetive oriented player get to play at a higher skill level (where he can still use his tactical knowledge well enough). (counter strike and pubg)
- They contain an AI mode where the AI is decent enough to take on a major part of the community. (most players cannot beat the hardest age of empires 2 AI, and in starcraft the AI is still strong enough to beat the non competetive portion often enough, but its simply not as interesting for Coop compstomping etc).
- They involve large player counts for pub modes. More players makes each individual performance matter less, and no matter how skilled, you are just going to be a finetuning aspect. There is no point blaming losses here anymore. (team fortress 2 - although i have to say that the diffirence between noobs and skilled players is generaly too large in which a skilled player can pubstomp on his own)
The essence of all issues is simply that this game demands a competetive setting. This is the same reason why starcraft isnt played often in coop modes and instead focusses on 1v1. Forcing players to cooperate against enemy teams just doesnt work. This is the same reason why left4dead in versus mode was generaly just garbage aswel (and that didnt even have any ranked mode). Its that l4d is simply good for coop mode, and thats where its strenght ended up being.
You cant blame the devs or players on that, its just the genre.
But yes, blizzard should at least take the game more serious, as they are currently just leaving it to die, amplifying the skill diffirence problem.
Finally, at least one person said about this problem that Blizzboys is forcibly trying to unite the team.
Without a well-chosen five, you cannot win, without a voice - you will most likely lose to a team with a voice. To events, to camps, to battles - everywhere in this game you are invited to go together. This artificial, violent attempt to make the command work - doesn’t work. People don’t want to do all these actions that players in other games do only after many good games played together, after checking each other, people don’t tend to get close so quickly.
And for what? For a 15m cartoon diablo game? Plz. This is too much. Therefore, no one wants to play it. In addition, you have no more options, otherwise you will not be able to play it.
Well done, blizzboyz “ROFL”
75% of my games were solo Q, you can keep coming up with excuses but it shows that you definetly belong in your own rank, games from plat to silver are almost no different because people keep failing in doing very simple essentials in the game.
Maybe its not me or anyone else, its people like you unable to get the basics of the game, mind sharing some replays of your own experiences? We can help instead of you complaining lol.
Yet that isnt true, both teams have the same issue after all. And a better player is generaly showing up to be more reliable at this ‘gamble’.
But most people arent realy aware of how well they are a team player. Most people think they are good, and that they are better than others. But at the same time are just equaly horrible team players.
If i just count the amount of times i catch myself not being a team players on average. And then would look back at a replay. I would still be amazed at the moments i did the wrong action for teamplay.
Thats where the player issue shows and what causes them to become toxic.
A good player however is aware of this, and for example doesnt blame, and even if he thinks its stupid, still tries to organize as a team and just follows that stupid action. He might be able to change it.
Any player that just constantly blames his teammates is a bad player, and always will be.
But the 2nd issue is that near bronze, 40% winrate players become common. And they can drag down quite a lot of games. This makes your (otherwise normaly) 60% or 70% often become negated and turn it close to 50% again. And this is why ELO doesnt work for team games. But even then, its the best system known so far.
This frustrates people, and makes them behave worse.
But the thing is, it can also happen in your favour if you are actualy the 40%. A teammate with 60% might carry your weakness and take you to 49%, and sometimes even 51%. In the end you should drop, but you dont.
But in the end at silver this is still equaly balanced since for every dropping person, someone is rising (and no, thats not just smurfs). So you can rise well enough. But its more likely that you arent plat to begin with (probably more like gold), or you should be able to rise to it again. Its just that between silver and plat diffirences are small enough that skill levels cannot seperate themselve well.
This is the ELO hell people talk about. And had nothing to do with the genre i talked about in the previous post.
Yeah - can I look at the price list right now, Sami?
Man, all this has already happened, but this makes it no less funny.
Ok Ok, let’s go a little further and assume, although you are not, that you are right. Why then make a game where from 1 small mistake of one of your five teammates, not such an experienced team member, you can lose, despite the fact that you achieved an advantage for 25 minutes, you play frankly better, you have demolished all the enemy’s towers, but you have them all intact?
I’ve seen this a thousand times, I would say - this is Hotts’ trick, no joke “ROFL”
