How to ESCAPE Elo hell (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Plat) | Overwatch 2 (100% SUCCESS RATE)

[@coach_mills]

I CAN'T MATH. This is why I dropped out of college smh 20-20-40 can be 30-30-40 instead or 33.33 - 33.33 - 33.33 Subscribe because there is no real job that will take me

[@MrCyberMuffin]

@@firstjosh1984 The actual numbers are not the point. Overwatch is way to complex to determine those numbers exactly, unless you put like a PhD level effort into it. Thus, the numbers are just asspulls to deliver a general concept, and very different numbers have been thrown around regarding this topic.

[@Lord-Irkalla]

I actually had a ranked game where we steamrolled the enemy team so we decided to stay as a group. We played a few more games and won before 2 of them left. Later we picked up 2 supports who were also good and they stuck with us. We won about 15-20 games in a row, and then had 1 draw afterward, and lastly a loss. After that time everyone had things to do so that was it. We started in silver 5 and went up to Gold 4 together. They weren’t too crazy or anything, but they used mics. If you’re comfortable, just talk with your team because it definitely helps.

[@9895_]

I wish my teams were like this, but we can win 20 matches in a row and everyone will still ragequit after 1 loss

[@Drelowedz]

Did the same today but on soloq

[@sebastianrojo8952]

Those are the best matches qhere we all know we did our part and go at it again. One of my best was a team we had, all randoms, but we all talked and were chill. He lost the match, one of them said like wenlost but we did good, I was like, we actually did good they just did better, wanna try again? We all stayed and we won the next couple of games People came and went, some losses but lostly wins, was pretty cool, especialmente when the new guy came in and he was like cool yall won so you stick together, and we were like no, we actually lost but are kinda stubborn jajaja

[@grahamunderwood741]

"It is not your team mates holding you back", first tip "get a duo partner".........so it IS my team holding me back?

[@bostinobaddog2040]

Not in the way you think😭. Your team can hold you back certain games, but the main reason to get a duo is the synergy. Not really your teams fault if you're low elo. Back in like 2017 I got a duo partner from my school, and we both got placed in bronze and 2 seasons later we were both low to mid gold. We didn't get much better (we didn't study the game), but we knew how to play with each other well

[@Saotic]

just watched this vid after getting off with my irl duo buddy. we lost 3 games in a row after we both had top lobby dps dmg, and elims, and least team deaths

[@its_lucky2526]

i find playing alone better and more fun

[@m.h.roblox]

@@Saotic this is so real ive been playing with a friend recently in high gold low plat and we consistently get top damage or even out dpsing with bap while also having most heals but it doesnt even matter some nights

[@vess10]

Or your just bad I just started playing overwatch 2 played through the first season and still playing now I'm currently plat 2 and just playing by myself no team

[@CALISUPERSPORT]

As someone who climbed to plat 4 recently, I find this guide pretty spot on. The most OP thing in low elo is the most basic teamwork. And it can be momentary stuff like coordinating a Zarya+Hanzo ult or calling out low enemies. If you have a mic, make an effort to communicate. You may get disappointed some games with silent/oblivious teammates but there are tons of people who WILL listen. Then, when I got good mechanics base on a few DPS heroes I just kept climbing after originally placing in Bronze. And tbh most of it is very basic, like not blowing your escapes to all in or flank the enemy. Heroes like Reaper/Genji, just reset, get healed, and go in again

[@sebastianrojo8952]

Even without talking, game sense and enabling is key. Had a game, I was sombra and I had a mercy, everytime I hacked someone she would fly to me and boost me, she saw I was doing the most dmg so she tried to enable me, and since I knew she was there I used my tp to move around the enemies more and not out of the fight for a health pack, so we could both be mobile, her just flying in and out boosting and patching me was enough combo. Since the rest of the team was decent we we all good for the match. Or the zen Who sees Who are you hacking and targeting and discords them for you, *chefs kiss* on a silver platter. That was the whole strat last game, we were getting rolled and our moira switch to zen I Just asked her call the orbs out or right asked her Who to orb I was able to melt them 1 by 1. As a main support enabling since to be the best option, even a stupid play can become a good play. Los of text but im invested and wanna give another example. I was kiriko, and our junker Queen over extended, he actually calles it out and told me dont come I foked up let me die, I was like nah b, if we both commit right know we might actually get a play, he chased the kill but then 2 other came at him, he was almost at spawn, he got it and I actually told him "a stupid play can is a good play if you succed" Disclaimer YOU DO HAVE TO KNOW WHEN TO LET SOMEONE DIE.

[@lotofmosTV]

60-70% accuracy as ana. 10k+ heals almost every match. Been playing since the release….end up silver as support 😢

[@SNOWDEVlL]

If you are just heal betting as ana it will be very difficult to climb you wanna make sure that you also play offensively with your sleep and nade to help get picks for your team

[@TenzaOnryoGaming]

Cause you don’t know how to play support. You are not a healer you are a support who can heal. Kill people from time to time. Sleep tanks and ulters. Don’t sit there healing all match

[@aaronayy]

its because you are your teams bitch when they told you to heal you do it but supports arent just healers balance dps and healing stop thinking supports only heal because in ranks like yours your teammates dont peel for you so as supports we have to be self sufficient

[@KindOldRaven]

Hitting small targets in OW is mainly difficult because there is 0 movement accel or decel. Even in Quake if you strafe left right, it won't be instantly. It is here. So certain characters will have wildly swinging hitboxes instantly the second you change position. That's what catches a *lot* of people off guard, even those with plenty of general FPS experience. Most games will have a very short ''stop'' when doing ADADADAD, but in Overwatch you literally instantly move in the other direction.

[@allibababoo]

Try predicting movement more than tracking perfect placement 100% of the time if that makes sense. Especially true for every non hitscan hero

My experience with the ratio is it's much closer to 33/33/33. Been playing since season 2 of OW1 and usually a third of games feel unwinnable due to smurfs/throwers/leavers/teammates but then you get the same third that go in your favour. It's the last third that are fun, close games that can go either way.

I think one of the worst things anyone can do in any competitive environment, not even just video games and sports, but even like, business, is to immediately default to blaming external forces for your failure. I feel like one big difference between a pro player or anyone who actually has potential to climb, and those who belong in the lower ranks is someone who deserves to climb looks at each death and loss through the lens of 'Okay, what did I do wrong there?' And actually takes an objective, analytical approach to their own gameplay first, then evaluates external factors second. While those who belong in those lower ranks immediately default to 'it's my team's fault', 'there's always smurfs', 'I deserve Diamond'

[@FleshkaVEVO]

no i totally agree, comparing urself to worse (and better players) can be demoralising and you often tend to focus on ur team / enemies rather than ur own gameplay which is a pretty pointless mindset if ur trying to improve urself, ur own rank and ur own gameplay

OW2 definitely counts more than just wins and losses. I won 7 out of 10 on Dps and i stayed gold 3. Then on support I won 7 out of about 15 and went from gold 2 to Plat 5. With 5 more losses I climbed pretty well on support compared to deeps

[@Invertedzero]

Team up with players that are at average or better for the rank you're in, and stay with them even if you lose the next match. The consistency of having even just average teammates (if you are above average) will give you an advantage over getting randoms in your team.

[@ven1mm]

the hard part is that when you win in a dominate game and the others all refuse to stay as a team, even if you are top on server in every stat.

Tbh a point you didnt mention is toxicity. I come from Valorant (which i also wasnt very good at) and i always felt like low elo players are just so toxic other than high elo's.

[@estivee]

My tip as someone that climbed from Bronze 3 to Platinum 5 during Season 1 in Overwatch 2: Turn off voice chat and focus on what your team is doing, not what your team is saying. They don't know what to do in the game anyways, you need to be the force that pushes your team to success if you want to climb, otherwise, you're just letting yourself be carried through games and when you don't have anyone to carry you on your team, you're lost and you see that dreaded "Defeat" screen. Try to always think about your positioning and what you can do in that situation to turn the fight to your team's advantage. Use your abilities to enable your teammates in the fight. And if you encounter a smurf, believe in your own ability to handle that player, cause if you can't, you're stuck in that rank for a reason.

[@Iv3y_Lamar]

How is being stuck the player’s fault when there is a Smurf?

[@zensic]

I can confirm turning off VC and team chat is the best way to climb in low elo xD I'm also in high plat now, looking to jump to diamond. People in lower ranks are not comfortable with support going for kills

[@kpkazan]

@Iv3y_Lamar they didn't say it was the players fault, if you see a smurf and instantly go into a mindset that you're gonna lose then don't wonder why you never improve when you shrivel to difficulties

[@ZarelidT]

Bruh. Just tell people to go for squishies. Everyone in low elo has bad aim. So they go for tanks to compensate. Then their aim NEVER improves nor do bad habits. I can not believe content creators don’t preach this more often. I’ve seen so many people run from Mei and attack a pocketed Zarya charged and all just because the fear of mei freezing you. It’s insane to me that this advice isn’t preached more… I genuinely rose from silver to masters once I figured this out and practiced.

[@Worsterest]

This is actually so true, I didn’t play ranked in ow1 at all, so didn’t bother to learn to be actually good at the game. But now I’m getting into ranked and it’s like I’m the only one who knows that tanks aren’t going to stop being healed unless the support is completely displaced or killed. Nobody in silver and bronze targets the people i put in, what should be, unsurvivable situations and just rush down main. I only play ball

[@Iz4rK]

one of the best scenarios to aim train is definitely 1w6targets small/extra small, or ones that literally like 4 pixels, sure this is kovaak but aimlab works too. This will carry over into any game you play regardless if its tracking based or not. It teaches you how to be precise, then be precise with speed. Aim training later on is not needed since there isnt as much return

@@RabbitWhiteThe It's true that in the 20-30% of your games your DPS will probably be severely mentally disabled players because they might be playing on their secondary role (with a significantly lower rank than their primary role but yet matched with the higher elo players) However, I still manage to make them perform good by perma babysitting them as support. Furthermore, the other 20-30% of your games It's your DPS who are cracked, and the remaining 50% of the games the skill level is fairly leveled out. This being said, I only play SoloQ support because I'm too lazy and don't wanna spend >4 minutes in queue for dps role. I still went from bronze 5 to gold 2 in 2 weeks and yes I can prove that %%% rule exists and kinda stops me from ranking up faster but whatever, It's bearable as long as you're a good player yourself. Only advice I can give you is: 1. Play DPS 2. Play Support and babysit your dumb DPS + make the extra dmg difference 3. Don't do backseat gaming because all the time you spend flaming your crappy team you are gonna lose to make a difference and focus on the game + you're tilting your team and making them perform even worse or they might even go AFK / report you and you're going to be put in a low prio queue with toxic players

I have zero game sense zero positioning and I am still far better than the majority of people I que with so if your still gold or below thats your problem trust me you can carry any game with a good tank.

I am in EU and I can tell you, you can't micro your team IF and thats a big IF someone is in voice they're actually not. They either listen to music or/and can't understand you anyway, since language barrier is still a thing, thus not hearing calls like "???? flanking the supports for the 1000th time" or something else nor do they hear elephant Soldier/Reaper flanks popping up behind and 1 tap them. It's multiple coinflips if you win a game or not. The best solution is (if you are on EU) get a VPN and play on NA or find a mate be it the same country or not and duo, other than that it is ELO HELL.

Facts. I started in Bronze for 3 seasons (4-7) then moved up to silver (9) and almost made it to gold before I stopped playing because I was burnt out by the game. Edit: Honestly, my goal was to just reach Gold and stay there.

[@pr0faker]

jup, a lot of people are just inherently not great at games, so 100% claim of getting out of elo hell, nah, literally impossible to pull off. My aim is just not great, I can hit the headshots here and there, but I will never be a great widowmaker or cassidy. My gamesense is pretty good, and although still making a ton of mistakes, it usually lets me still do well as a tank or support that way. Getting to gold, is doable for most people that have halfdecent aim and half decent comprehension of the game mechanics and tactics.

[@M4GG0TK1NG]

This is a big one for me. The toxicity and ego of low ELO players keeps me out of being on coms. I would love to be in voice chat making call outs and strategizing but I played enough OW1 to know that the moment I offer some feedback I'll be met with reee-ing and anger from someone who acts like hot shit but is still in Bronze with the rest of us

How can you think that in a game with 5v5 teams you have a 40% impact? That's a massive ego or Smurf mindset

World of Tanks has great statistics to compliment your first point. The bots in game that join and doesn't move at all have 30% win rates at the very least. The very best tankers that play normally will sit at 70%. Very clear what window have to affect your games with your own actions.

[@zenray9299]

@@coach_millsoh it’s definitely the hardest. Instant movement acceleration to max speed. Chaotic as fuck flicking to all corners of the pad. Plenty of ranges and utilizes all forms of aiming. Phar mercy? Vertical diagonal aiming. Widow? Preaim/reaction/flick shots. Cassidy? Flick + tracking. Soldier? Tracking. Tracer? Fast mouse movement with very reactive tracking. Considering the self healing, healing and chaos that most fights have, the sustained requirement of aiming is by far the most demanding of any game. Cs and val are quite easy. Quake and OW the hardest

Great video! Any tips to bring the team's morale up to fight against/with toxic players? I feel like mood is one of the driving factors that influence the performances.

[@johnmyster]

Keep a level head, you can say things like "we'll get them next round." If someone is toxic towards you, often times just ignore them or say "my bad" then ignore them if they keep going after you (mute them if need be). If theyre toxic towards a teammate, lightly encourage or defend your teammate. Even if you agree with the toxic person. Instead of saying "dps diff" say "hey, I mean no offense, but I was wondering if you could try something else? I could even go x to synergize with y" Just some thoughts from a silver to gold to plat to silver to bronze player with over 350 comp hours. xD

[@Ballingboii]

Talk. Be the vibe setter. Before every match say wassup and try to make ppl feel comfortable and feel like they have no pressure. Give callouts and instructions and be a leader. If someones toxic mute them or sum. See what works best for u.

[@rostandfilho1920]

[@srr4460]

I think a much easier way of getting out of elo hell is just to abuse broken heroes and 1v9 until they get nerfed. For example I think anyone who learns to cycle Ramattra's cooldowns reasonably well (in his current state) can easily steamroll their way to Plat. This doesn't require much aim and all you are doing is charging his ult fast as possible, waiting for the enemy tank to overextend then ult into their backline to win teamfights (rinse and repeat). The same can be applied to Moira for support and maybe Bastion for DPS (except with Bastion you wait until enemy tank overextends with blown cooldowns then shred them with his tank mode). Climbing is a lot easier when you play broken heroes even if they're not your personal favorites. I'd much rather play Genji than any other hero but I can't climb with him to save my life XD.

[@TenzaOnryoGaming]

Most people complaining about leavers are usually so trash that the person left cause carrying you was a headache

[@boblawblaw6185]

more silvers bronzes, low golds need to watch this , because I'm trying to type all this shit out in the team chat when someone starts crying along the lines in this video. "Play x character," Trying to play winston like Xqc when they don't have the mechanical skill of Xqc, not reacting to what the enemy team is doing or not doing. The one thing I personally learned from this video is to be more fluid and reactive of teammates without them consciously synergizing, which is something I was sub consciously doing then I let some of these poor players gaslight me. I was almost out of silver, but I played more rigid in a rock paper scissors way and lost rank because of it. When you play solo queue you have to be more unorthodox when you play. all that OWL mimicry shit is when you are on a stacked team that you have regularly played with AND communicating with. Solo queue you should be doing your class's bare minimum job but also be looking for windows where you can cause a mismatch. If you have really good mechanical skill and cracked at DPS, play Baptiste and slightly kill more people than heal, don't let some tank doing 0 mit and no dmg tell you how to play the class if you know you can hit shots but still be aware when people need healing. Or a soldier 76 dropping his healing aura on Ana instead of off in left field on himself strictly trying to DPS. In solo queue you just can't tunnel vision on your class' main role like a script or you will not win the rank push games against players that understand this. If you're a tank you're a tank AND DPS, you're sitting on the point 99% unless that enemy healer gets too close now you're dps and pressuring them. If you're a healer you're a healer AND DPS ,trying to opportunistically kill low health players or pinging them so that is LESS HEALING you have to do on your team. DEAD DPS = 0 DPS.

today I played some games (i'm a support main stuck in silver) previously gold last season... I played 5 games while I had time... 1st game, our tank left, second game there was an aimbotting widow maker (yes I watched replay it was not just a smurf or good player), 3rd game our dps did like maybe 1000-2000 damage the whole game, 4th game we had a thrower camping in spawn afk as tank and 5th game I got a win... when I do get good games I usually get about 18k healing, 13-15 kills and maybe 2-3 deaths as kiriko, yet because of these other games I just fail to climb... every time I have stacked with 2-3 friends i've won 7 straight and instantly climbed heaps but when having to play solo, it's a nightmare

Great vid! Can you make a "how not to feed" -type vid please so people will regroup? xD

[@M4GG0TK1NG]

IMO this is the single biggest reason that average players get stuck in ELO Hell. Everyone wants to play like it's Call of Duty and just respawn and rush in. I will ask teammates to group up for a push and literally get told "no" and then that same person bitches when we lose. It would be one thing if it happened like every once in a while but it's every single match. No one cares about staggering respawns or team fights it's just "I'm so much better, I can definitely 1v5 while my team is respawning"

[@demize3365]

Just because you’re in good or lower doesnt mean you have poor mechanical skill. I can pull off advanced doom tech with ease and im still stuck in silver. I constanly have the best stats on my team and it keeps me in the same ranks
