The main reason why competitive is so bad is because almost no one actually knows how to play the game

Staying grouped, staying on the payload, diving, peeling, staying behind shields.
These are concepts foreign to most players.
And those who DO know how to play, THEY suffer.
LFG should fix it, and then those who do not play well will be put into Bronze.

sigh I feel most of my wins are out of my control and all I can do is try and get better because I can’t control my teammates. Getting throwers, toxic players, and players that just don’t want to group almost every game. Competitive just doesn’t feel fun anymore. It’s a roll of the dice to get good teammates.

All I can do is try my best and focus on my mistakes!

my favorite thing to hate about when i played in gold and like low/mid plat

was people with like 200 hours on rein (that insta lock him) would go up to say the first choke on volsakya and just sit there waiting for something to happen.

your supposed too use the shield too protect people from the incoming fire so they can change locations

there was a quote somthing like “shields are for positoning not dmg absorbtion”

it hurt my brain, because the entire time the reins like “KILL SOMTHING YOU NOOB DPS, &(^#(ING KILL SOMTHING” all the while they cant kill anything because there stuck behind 2 shields. youd have to break the shields to do anything

so anyone reading this, who plays rein

look up how top tier rein players help there team move around the map. then becoming the PMA shotcaller who helps your team to victory

otherwise, your going to suffer a terrible terrible life as a main tank

I main Ana. Literally OW has turned into me doing my best to minimize dying and maximizing sleeps. Everybody does whatever they want paying 0 attention to their other 5 teammates. You call it out on voice and they get saltly immediately (even if you do it nice)…

I just play to stay alive now. 2-4 deaths per game or I reconsider my positioning and review my game. Sometimes its me being stupid or mechanically bad… But 90% of the time… My team doesn’t know !;#$ and get srs tunnel vision leaving me to duel 1v1 every single time. Ana 1v1 is over if I miss my sleep.
