Iâm not asking for gentle, but I have things to say about certain items too. For example âyou play by yourselfâ. It depends on which hero and game youâre talking about but in general in bronze I canât get people to play together or group up.
If Iâm healing and canât get anyone to wait for me before rushing in, Iâm at a loss for what to do and usually switch to something else. If Iâm DPS (for example) and canât get a shield or heals and my team is scattered all over the place, then yeah Iâm pretty much gonna do my own thing. Is there another choice?
And if Iâm Moira or Brigitte I try to heal but many times DPS isnât DPSing so I will focus on that so I can keep playing that hero.
Okay. Need a good link. Preferably to YT as easier to pause and comment and all.
If they arenât DPSing and youâre Moira: HEAL them more. Thatâs your job. Sure, you chip in but thatâs it. You being a DPS is inefficient and costs your team its efficient healer. If theyâre just as bad as your enemies and you heal better than tje enemy healer you win! You need to enable them to succeed. Thatâs the job you signed up for: SUPPORT. Not lead, not solo flanker but support.
If they are running like idiots: FOLLOW them! Better you play as headless chickens together than their main healer runs off on her own to die where she cannot heal them anyway.
Do the basic legwork and get me a video link with my above criteria. Get one you feel you had a chance but it came up a little short. Or you won but it was by a hairâs breadth. Those are games one can teach from.
I get results (helped a couple climb last season and my tank play went through the roof last season) so even if I get bad eggs and few bites the few successes make it all worth the while. Another already asked to add me today for some help. My answer to any serious is always yes. I might be low average but that beats a heckuva lot in the game! And I like to help who and where I can.
Your right - 50/50 forced win rate is A LIE. So stop perpetuating it.
The truth is the match maker does itâs best to place you in matches where your chances of winning are 50/50. A chance to win and forced win rate are two entirely different things. Just because you have about even odds to win or lose a match does not mean you are going to win 50% of your matches. If you are not as good as you like to think (Dunning-Kruger) you will lose more matches overtime until you settle into a spot on the ladder that is more in line with your actual skill level.
Nobody has ever forced me to lose a match. But I have lost a lot of matches when I just played poorly.
Get your facts straight before going all âchicken littleâ again.
âŚand thanks for always been so helpful and encouraging, dude. =)
I am glad that you have had a great season 13 (i totally missed seasons 12 & 13 due to work and familial commitmentsâŚdid not even manage to complete placements for s12! heh) and it may not come as a surprise actually because in the helping and advising of others, a person would first have to see what is lacking in oneself and improve on those aspects. Thus bettering oneself whilst simultaneously improving further upon seeing and learning from the flaws in others. =D
My tank improvement is from playing it way more and taking some not-always gentle advice to heart.
And just get in the saddle this season. Kick off the dust, oil up that rust and youâll be back where ya belong. Life always comes before games.
I play supports/tanks for more reasons than just having bad mechanics; I like seeing others succeed and letting em get there. To me thatâs a bigger accomplishment than my own gains. Itâs just how I am.
Indeed and being tough on oneself is really, the only way to elevate to greater heights. No one ever gets stronger by just lifting the weight that they can, only by increasing the load and bearing the pain can one see any form of gain and growth. =)
And that is exactly what i mentioned, seeing what is missing; acknowledge it; grow and improve. If you (generic âyouâ), cannot help yourself, how can you help others (grow). =)
Yeeeaaah! Just received news on my phone that Season 14 commenced about an hour or so ago. I am still recovering from the crushing workload over the past few months (the food industry can be really merciless especially if you are the business owner, chef and labourer. Heh.) and i can still feel the fatigue in my eyes, arms and back. However, you are right; i do enjoy me some good organised play which only Comp can bring so just gotta hop onto the saddle, get ready to have my butt kicked to the kerb (heeellloooo, Bronzers!) and just enjoy the ride. XD
Pretty much the same. I have always gravitated towards Tank and Healing / Support classes in tabletop RPGs, cRPGs and MMORPGs. Even when i roll a rouge in D&D, i focused on building utility while my friends focused on stacking damage dealing abilities. Heh. Even in real life, playing basketball, i was the guy rebounding and playing defense with such intensity that peeps nicknamed me âBruceâ (after Bruce Bowen).
Giving the assist and seeing the team succeed is really where it is at, eh, bro? =)
I went 7 wins 3 losses in my placements but only got plat, however 2 seasons ago I went 5 wins 5 losses and got low diamond like what the hell is wrong with this. But truthfully the 0 placement wins you got thatâs just proof that blizzardâs matchmaking blows DICK.
Why do you tell lies that are so easily caught? You keep doing this. You tells lies that we can all look up in seconds, then you attack the people who point it out. Itâs not even a lie worth telling. Dictionary dot com does not define âthrowingâ that way at all.
