So I am that silver tank player that competed in this event and I must say I had so much fun playing even though we lost twice it was still a great time. Everybody was super nice and I spent a good deal of time watching back and learning from what I did differently and I have finally been able to climb out of silver and I am now gold three pushing my way up to Platinum. I just haven't had time to make it plat and diamond.

[@flamescion4946]

From a college player's perspective, you'd be surprised how different the game is when you're playing in an esports setting as opposed to ranked at times. Imo, really teaches you how to get a lot better at the game. I had teammates that were diamond and masters players on my team but I (Silver back when I joined) was able to keep up because playing with them helped me learn to see from their perspective. Most people play a lot better when they have a full team to communicate with also. Helps them understand what's going on a lot better when they can talk it out

[@Blan-Kitt]

There's a sort of saying that I've heard repeated in both OW2 and League of Legends; that you improve a lot faster and better when you're against higher ranked people. It definitely does help having higher ranked friends or teammates communicating with you, and suggesting ways to improve or showing you why X is the right/wrong answer to Y. For instance in my first few games of OW2 (I just started about 2 or 3 months ago, and it's my first FPS game ever lol), I didn't know pretty much anything about OW or the characters and was mostly just overwhelmed, but I know because I played with higher ranked friends I was able to quickly learn to try to pay attention to key things, and then to pay attention to things that were off screen from time to time (I'm a support/tank main so this one was important). One of my early examples of this was me playing Kiriko for one of the first times, and the enemy team having an Illari. My friend told me to Suzu when the Illari ulted, and I did.... It just happened to be... not when she launched the projectile, but right as she said the line and started to rise up. However after she told me what she meant with it, I was able to nail it the 2nd Illari ult around and save my friend and I from a sunburn death.

Hi there! I want to explain, I talked with everyone on the team between matches and beforehand, and no one felt pressured by me! I consistently asked what they wanted me to run, where to go, etc and made that clear from the get go - we even had a discussion on stream that probably got cut from the video - about just that. I asked what he wanted, he said ashe, it was not a good ashe day. I also had a moment in between games where it was explained that due to a medical issue, I was having a very hard time using my mouse. Any point where aim was important, yeah I lagged behind. And i apologized multiple times for it. You don't always know what goes on, and everyone in the lobby understood what was going on since I was talking about it off screen. Even the guy said he had fun, that's what should matter; it costs nothing to just be nice and - to quote Coach Koby - realize everyone has bad games.

SHE NEVER SHUTS UP

[@seaottar25]

Comms does seem cluttered. It does happen, I have adhd myself so I’m no stranger to stream of consciousness call-outs but it’s also good to learn how to do it without taking focus from your team. Personally I like to group call-outs into two categories, Notices and Actions. Basically ‘important information the team should know’ and ‘actions that the team should take’ Examples of notices are: ‘reaper flanking, he has ult’, ‘they have nano blade’, ‘echo switched to widow’. Examples of Actions are: ‘we have four ults, let’s use nano blade next fight, nothing else’, ‘let’s speed boost straight onto point and hold there’, ‘I’ll come with you soldier, let’s flank left side’ ,‘Stack on Sym’, ‘Rein needs care’, ‘tracer’s slept, 3 2 1’, But generally if you’re going for that win, less is more with call-outs bc mentally filtering the important information out of long sentences does take focus away from things in front of you. Of course if you’re just playing with buddies trying to have a good time then it doesn’t matter haha.

[@MrLenzGaming]

I'm originally a high rank siege player so call outs are my specialty just usually not this fast paced which is what I'm working onatm

[@seaottar25]

@@MrLenzGaming yea understandable, overwatch is very fast paced which makes short n sweet callouts all the better. I made my initial comment on the overall state of comms on the team, I noticed it most from one of the ladies making the calls, I do think you could have performed a lot better with less voice clutter from the team. I think the two main call-outs for tank are ‘I need help/care’ and any positioning changes you’ll be making like ‘dropping off high ground’, ‘taking a second here to let my shield recharge’, ‘I’m gonna push high ground’. Ow2 being single tank means you’re solely responsible for making and holding space, so it’s important to let your team know what space you plan to take or let go of so they can plan their own repositions. I main support so while competent supports are able to somewhat read the fight and position according to our tank, a heads up before an aggressive play or a fast retreat helps a lot and we can invest resources to help our tank.

[@mr.meeseeks54]

I'm a master tank and I'm sure my sigma game is on the same level as this silver tank. I mean, there's really a big difference between him actually being able to play consistently at that level like he showed us. I guess that must be his real problem, because with his awareness alone (and also his excellent technique) he would never achieve silver. keep it up :) And by the way. I would have lost with this team too xD “Stack 3 on the pilot to be faster” - instead of constantly picking and pushing. They also use ults after the fight was lost... diamands should know better.

[@Baddie-tz8rw]

he played so well but it feels like he played so nervous, but what else do u really expect, i'd be panicking so much

[@krytirix]

I glad everyone is also thinking what I was thinking. The girls are constantly telling him to get back when he obviously is then when everyone gets killed off an he’s alone then dies, she goes “that’s what I was saying”. I hate backseat players who tend to think they’re sooo good but then don’t even know what’s going on. Along with the jumble of “call outs”. Personally it’s not that hard to be nice to your teammates, the more positivity the more you can work together.

He's definitely very unsure and afraid of what he's doing which is understandable and he doesn't seem to understand the momentum of diamond games compared to silver but even in these diamond lobbies he's definitely playing like a high gold or low plat, he just needs to be more comfortable and get used to faster gameplay and he'll be diamond in no time.

[@awanderer3047]

It also doesn't help that eastybug was giving terrible call-outs the first game. He'd be in a good spot, she'd say to fall back, nvm, you're good. I'd be confused as well and at a certain point just stop listening to them

[@entropy417]

Yeah, ranking in colleges was a nightmare . I play for Caldwell University in New Jersey ,and the division set up was gold to masters. We were undefeated in the regular season, but somehow got bodied in play offs, we ended up getting 3rd place in the ECAC. We lost against a team that was made up of GMs while our top player was diamond 2 . I was tank that peaked at plat 2

[@ArkanMatlub03]

I can see how he's missing a lot of important plays which can hold him back and sometimes solo ulting a genji is not worth it, but he's got that overall defensive style which is pretty important

[@dcsaustin2]

I did OW in college and was on the varsity team as a low gold player when the rest of my team was master/GM with one top 500 player. It wasn't always fin, and a few games I got unbelievably throttled. But as long as you have a good team that you can work with you can make up for it.

[@AFO666]

nah get him on a team with people who actually know how to be on a team. these people were awful. lenz did really well all things considered and he deserves way better.

[@dtamre93]

As a Plat tank and Diamond Open. He plays better than me 😂

[@iknowimanidiotbut..2804]

Made classic silver mistakes tho. Had he ignored monkey and blocked his support and damaged back line money would have died to 1v4 with no support

[@Jordan-ki6ow]

In my eyes, it shows just how bad OW2 rank system is. I can guarantee the tank has been playing on the same account since the game has launched or near to it, got placed in silver / low gold and the games algorithm has essentially and artificially kept them within the same rank. When you’re a pure solo player, this games competitive value has little to 0 value. I fully believe there are many who are above their respective rank but have been stuck due to playing on the same account that gets “locked” to a certain rank. Once OW2 algo has determined your rank, good luck ranking up unless you have a stack of 3+ that consistently com. Even then, the game will just put you with 2 other below average players due to the algo thinking your stack can make up for the subpar talent. When it comes to OW, it’s a pure team game. You can quite literally do everything perfect, make every play, make every essential kill and still lose due to others being constantly picked. VOD reviews are completely pointless in my eyes. Hardly anyone who does a review takes into consideration of the team around them. You’re out of position even though your team has no position? Well, it’s your fault. Being in the right position would miraculously turn the entire fight around. If anything, reviewing certain plays is far better than someone just sitting down and reviewing your gameplay from beginning to end. At the end of the day, every player makes mistakes and if you simply just dwell on every mistake and try to tell yourself what you could’ve been better, all you’re going to do is be sitting their thinking what you could do in essential fights as opposed to going with game sense and instincts and winning those fights. In ranks of Gold 3 and below it quite literally is a random generator and a toss up of the dice if you have a tank who actually knows how to play the game. Dps that have somewhat of a shot, and healers who actually heal instead of do dmg. When you’re playing with an account that has been stuck in low ranks since launch and are a pure solo player, it quite literally is impossible to rank up. I have my old account from when I first started OW that has been hard stuck silver yet on my next account I created, I’m high gold / low plat. I’m willing to let any KZbinr or content creator take over my silver account and try to rank it up as nothing but a solo player. I’m willing to bet my entire salary they wouldn’t be able to peek past plat. This games algorithm for rank detection is completely atrocious. Rank up = stack with friends. Stagnant in the same rank = play solo.

[@jordanjacques8463]

He needs to get comfortable with taking space. Not being afraid to die. Let your team know when you're going in. Assert dominance

[@lukeaustin4465]

Sig is a mid range poke tank, that play style works better with tanks like zarya, orisa etc.

wait i'm confused we didn't see him play on the other team in the video, both games he was with lagomorph, eastybug, amusedx, and mercenary and not with the other 4(owen, jowoshy, yer, and snacks)

I played with them but Owen6 got his name that map lol

[@EastyBugTV]

Ahh second round didnt go too well in terms of back and forth, so they must have cut it! (Havent watched yet)

[@Hietakissa]

At 15:05 it said they got stomped that game. So a close-ish loss with team 1, stomp with team 2 and then a win with team 1 for a 1-2 W/L

[@Zencep]

The game where they switched teams was not included in the video.

[@chinaboytag1]

Honestly, I can't even blame a lot of the times he struggled, like with Orisa where no one was clearing the high ground. His dpses were letting him down and if anything, the only thing anyone could realistically do there is switch. Could've gone better if his team had been clearing appropriately but they mostly didn't.

[@ricardocortes7088]

Where does he find all these diamond teams that r communicating like they're playing wc

[@PotatoShakeCake]

I see what Jay did here. He said the tank was silver and the team mates were diamond, but for the looks of it I am pretty sure he meant the Tank is diamond and they gave him silver players to test how good of a tank he is.

[@oozy1333]

This actually makes sense. I am also an ELO player and been stuck in gold for years. I play with a silver player who can easily be plat.

As a new ow player stuck in gold/silver I can confirm it is elo hell I watch lots of guides and other things but sometimes it just doesn’t matter, it comes down to if you can swap and counter the enemy tank if you try and play 1 tank only it feels like you have to be a Smurf to climb and play with minimal mistakes and this is all solo q fyi and teammates barley have mics idk anyone else have a different exp? I feel like if I 3 or even 2 stacked I would definitely climb but then is it really my rank ? Idk what’s y’all thought?

[@Blobbyrainbow10]

13:10 pull up the doomfist death reactions 😂

[@Dtyler171]

Pertaining to sigma: His shifts need a lot of work, though his other abilities only need a few minor tweaks...namely not insta-rocking bubble every time monkey leaps in, bc he's always gonna bubble. But yeah, overall, a good tank, and definitely can play well beyond silver. I'm curious how much time has actually gone into ranked, though. Another thing I noticed, that I didn't see anyone mention, is that his aim is often low, particularly noticeable on ramatra. You can pretty reliably hit headshots on ram if you just set up your cursor at head height, and then track from there

[@outerdutch2372]

The constant coaching from the healers just let this sman cook, and they were so quick to let him die or not keep him healed when he was making a play.

Hear me out "elo heaven" were people who should not be in a high rank go into lower ranks to see if they can carry to prove they should be up there
