Overaggressive play styles are the worst to play with. They do nothing but ball chase so then your forced into an awkward defense.

DrHitshot is the most accurate description of what it’s like to play plat. Everyone thinks they’re the best so they just ball chase and their is rarely any rotation so you feel like you have to play defense the whole game and it ends up feeling like a 1v2 or if you do try to help you tm8 puts y’all in a position where it’s always a open goal.

[@hydn4574]

As a GC what jumps out at me with the lower ranks is their challenges. They go for things they have no business going for which takes them out of the play leaving their teammate to defend a 1v2.

I don't get this "I deserve to be in a higher rank" mentality. Anyone who has ever had to start from 0 again can attest, that you get back to your old rank within a few hours. It really makes no sense to blame anyone but yourself, because all you need is more wins than losses, which should be no problem up until the rank you deserve to be in.

[@joshshultz1250]

Agreed. This really only applies if you are consistently playing with the same people, i.e. your friends. I thought I deserved to be higher after attempting to explain some of the strategic errors some of my friends were making and them not listening, so I went out and played random matches and all the sudden I started picking up MMR. Came back to play with them, and the ball chaser was in complete denial that I could possibly be higher than him. I told him it's because he doesn't let other people play and if they are the least bit responsible they back off while he chases. Still doesn't get it.

[@di3yus459]

I wanna ask one thing. If your mechanics are better than a diamond 1. Then how da fuck do you mess up a wave dash.

[@greymanjones5559]

@@di3yus459 I think the bigger issue in that certain situation was that he not only tried to get that middle boost he was already almost past, missed it and then still moved almost directly towards his corner boost? And wash dashing just on the ground like that usually doesn't help a lot for speed. Helps more with getting back momentum when landing after being on the wall for example. Anyway, back to that situation: If he had simply moved back using the curved boost pad lane that would lead him to his goal AND give him about 48 boost, he might've had way better chances at getting that save/clear. Those lanes of boost pads in general are heavily ignored even at lower gc. Can only recommend a video by virge talking about this in a 3s rotation video. Real good stuff. Also helps with not going all the way back for boost every time while on offense, releasing all the pressure your team had.

Solo queueing people complaining about being a lower rank than they deserve because of their teammates are ridiculous. Here's why: all solo queueing players get their teammates from the exact same pool of players. Some of them manage to rise in the ranks steadily, while others stagnate and blame that stagnation on the same pool of teammates with whom the other group was able to climb. These people are unable and/or unwilling to accurately identify their own weaknesses, while being hyper-focused on the weaknesses of teammates. (Surprise: people have different strengths and weaknesses; it's what those average out to that ultimately determines what rank you're in.) This lack of self-awareness is what is ultimately keeping them lower, not the quality of the teammate pool, which everyone shares.

While most of the time it's not an excuse, that gold three was wayyy better than any golds I've seen

[@joshmurphy3241]

I can tell that's the type the plat was that won against the diamond. He CLEARLY has the capability of playing in high diamond, but if I had to guess, his teammate messes up once and he fails to trust him for the rest of the game. Happens to me so much in C3

[@Timo_tvq]

@jklaiho this is so true, you couldn't have explained it better. People tend to blame anything but themselves when they lose. I get that you can't have good teammates all the time, all they gotta do is adapt. At the end of the day the only thing that they can change is their OWN playstyle, and telling randoms they suck isn't gonna make them play better.

[@Geometric_Atom]

What about the solo players who play against premade stacks? Theres days where I only go against full teams and get all solo players. Not saying it's always the teammates fault. As I looked for my own mistakes then improved it. But as soon as I stopped solo queuing and found teammates, I went up 2 whole ranks in every game mode(including extras playlist ex. Dropshot) from diamond 2 and 3 up to champ 1 and 2s. Having a consistant teammate every match makes a big difference. But if both teams are made up of solo players it's different story. Game comes down to who has a smurf on their team lmao.

[@christopheratajudeen1023]

Why are even there people toxic? How Sunless sayed: "people become better faster when they practice challenging mechanics." And I'm 100% agree, because it's easier to learn rotations and stuff later.

[@tundrabancho7207]

@@robertfox4114 Right, you can do all the fancy stuff in the world but without game sense, rotation and defense then plat is where most good mechanical players will stay.

[@tundrabancho7207]

I'm C2/C3 and have easily the worst mechanics of any Champ+ player. Lol. Can't flip reset, can barely freestyle and will never score an aerial where you carry it in off the wall. Positioning and teamwork is more important than fancy mechanics.

You're a good person then, and it's far better than being a good player :) we're missing a "thumb up" option in the game, I'd love to be able to leave a positive feedback to other players sometimes and they should be rewarded if they get enough of them. If they want to get rid of toxic players, they should reward being nice first, instead of the "report" option that is a mess for them to objectively evaluate.
