I worked my way up to 2044 this week, then across the last two days got curb stomped down to 1986, then got myself back up to 2014 today.
Cudos to the great guys in my team’s that actually we’re vocal and smooth operators (seriously much love), but the window lickers who did exactly as you said ruined it for all of us.
It’s so sad to see how 3-5 mutes in a match can destroy weeks or even months of work in less than 3 hours. Then there’s also the strange case of people trying to lead comps while (I’m honestly convinced) that they are high which leads to them being extremely abusive and toxic.
Damn dude I’m sorry to hear about that experience… it really is so frustrating to work for a week pushing rating and have it tank over a few games. I literally ask everyone when I form my group prior to invite if they have a mic… that isn’t good enough though.
I don’t think there is even a good system to follow forming groups, I slow filled last night and we lost badly and everyone quit immediately. I almost went to bed but decided I’d try one more time, formed another group, this time kind of just more freely not even asking if everyone had a mic cuz I was so fed up. The tank in our group sees our DK is a bit lower CR than what I advertised and leaves the group… the DK told me he could TC so I kept him… THANK GOD. He was AWESOME! We actually ended up winning 4 in a row and I broke 1700 finally. We even queued into a 2100 MMR game, our first loss and even though we didn’t really have a chance was awesome to play at that level.
If you’re ever looking for a team feel free to add me Sherms#1309 although we are a bit lower than you are playing atm. Currently 1700 pushing.
Best of luck in future games man, hope the toxicity subsides for us both
The one rbg game i did this season they had two people join who claimed to be 2100 xp and led the battleground and then promptly left the game after we got capped once
I think I’m done with people and rated content lol
Yeah dude I’ll add you up, you got heart you don’t buckle under pressure.
It happened again lol… went from 2012 down to 1980 because a player I trusted took me in, gave us a Braveheart speech about sticking together even if we lose the first couple…
We lose the first two, he cracks under pressure and sooks out saying he’s having a panic attack (lol???) Then we try to salvage the 4 remaining players, lose gilneas to a lower MMR team because a player didn’t bother to call Inc at WW.
Even at a 2k-2.1k cr people can still do dumb $h!t… like that’s a rookie mistake from one player and it cost us a match.
I sit here now sipping a glass of scotch pondering why I even give a damn because at the end of the day it’s just a video game.
I see replies to this post every now and then, I click on it to see what sort of condescention OP is spitting next, but nothing.
In a way I feel bad for them, partly because I know the difficulty of pushing past plateus at different stages in CR (currently at another gain 50 rating lose 50 rating plateu myself now lol), and they dug themselves a pretty deep hole by claiming they would hit HW without effort, even fortifying it by checking in to gloat when they hit 1600.
But then I realize all of this was self-inflicted, and kind of chuckle over it going exactly how I expected it to.
Oh my god dude I’m sorry for laughing but the way you wrote that was so funny. I’m sorry you had to go through that again lol. It’s actually surreal to me how people can’t make a simple inc call and on a map like Gilneas it’s likely GG if you lose WW to something like that. At 1700 CR I’m noticing a lot of people not CCing and just going for kill targets instead of CC healers so we can get kills. Just tough going, lost 2 today should have won our Gilneas match so I’m down to 1701. Will see how the night goes when I’m off work but you absolutely hit it on the head… at the end of the day it is just a video game… I get myself too worked up over losses sometimes. Should be about fun more than anything
Check discord in about 2 mins kiddo. You are waaaaaay out of your league this time. Again, I’ll give you the nod in the game. I’ll admit defeat. You are a waaaaaaay better gamer than me
Do you play in a Nickleback cover band? https://i.imgur.com/5wAYDnX.png
Don’t ever talk about anyone’s appearance. You’re bad at the game, get 0 play and are a balding 30 year old. You sure are R1 IRL bro!!! See ya in a week after this ban boys.
