His play style only works when there are comms. Nothing wrong with that, but in metal ranks there is zero comms so he is just going to get left out to dry in all of his games. He needs to have a little more caution to his own self-preservation. He won't have the lucio speeding him out and the bap always using the immortality correctly in plat. That's why he's stuck.

[@Gr0ot]

Your analogy kind of makes no sense given he’s playing in the metal ranks currently with no comms. So the higher he gets and there are comms the better it’s going to be for him. Apply logic, read back your message, and see what you said. Maybe you phrased it wrong, but overall…you made no sense.

Ehhh, maybe diamond. The guy's got shield phobia and a severe case of swing-ious. He'll have problems climbing at his current skill unless he's got a pocket. That being said, he's got a good mentality, and that's the most important thing when it comes to improving.

[@niteblooded2334]

Honestly it looked like he got carried a bit that first game. He made some great plays and diff'd the other Rein in parts but not enough to win like that. I love aggro Reins but let's not pretend they aren't boom/bust. His playstyle fits Cloudy probably more so than any other content creator I've seen so he should pay attention when Cloudy goes full aggro and when Cloudy holds/retreats. Cloudy plays a smart aggro playstyle. And while this guy also appears to be smart it looks like aggro leads the charge more times than not. He's got a playstyle you can easily punish. As the video went on I could predict his moves very reliably. Once he gets that under control I think he has the ability to not only climb but climb fast.

[@DrJay-rp4kf]

I'm surprised is the only comment one this! This was a team diff 100% especially the supports. It didn't show in the final stats but they weren't good/unlucky

[@ryzacraft]

You need a tank with high mobility on numbani defence because your supports are probably going to want to spread across the high ground and the tank needs to be able to peel for them. If the tank can’t move between point and high ground quickly, the moment the enemy team push the tank to drop, the supports are vulnerable.

SO impressive out of of Kaks. If he remembers that he IS the choke for his team, and that it's his job to create and hold space for his team, CREATING OPPORTUNITY for THEM to make plays, and not always make the plays himself, he can climb very fast. Tank is a selfless role. Overall, we found him. He is the one.

[@chaunceyxvi830]

[@shanewinn1642]

I think this guy just had really good supports in the first game. I think they could make it to diamond but unless they start playing more like a tank I don't see them progressing much further.

[@aceofpurity]

Yeah, he did well on kings row because a long sighted Map less Flankers + supports who can handle themselves But on numbani he completely let's a dva kill his supports and not looking back, he dives and feeds. Last fight doesnt use ult, on lijiang he wastes ult. Doesn't use sheild or pin on ulting reaper just dies and his teammates stuck without him, hyperfocuses on kills doesn't look back to see if team needs him

[@pr1sma826]

​@@aceofpuritywith that mentality that u just described, i would imagine he could be a monster with a dive tank like doom, ball, dva, etc the problem is that him playing rein is a handicap in the sense that team comps around rein are more team cooperatively focused and not so much let the tank dive in and pick off a straying dps or support, i share the same opinion as u but to me its the tank specifically that doesnt match his mentality

[@Real_MisterSir]

The sole thing keeping this guy from climbing, is discipline. And mind, many people correlate discipline with playing more defensive - but discipline at its core is all about understanding priority and value. His playstyle is great for ladder play and climbing, and what he needs is the mental discipline of prioritizing what value to aggressively pursue. For example, discipline of paying attention to enemy intentions ahead of team fights, so he doesn't get walled by Mei every fight and his Bap has to waste lamp early. Discipline to check enemy Rein position and ult track, so he isn't miles deep in the enemy team 1v5 leaving his entire backline open for ez enemy shatter, etc. Discipline of understanding how to be aggro when he doesn't have a Masters lvl Lucio player speeding him around and also actively comming to tell their intend 24/7. All of this he should be able to accomplish on his own, in a lobby of no comms, with subpar team mates. He must have the discipline to know what value to pursue and when to do it. High effort comms filled custom lobbies like this one will always provide a far better foundation for good plays than a random rng rank lobby ever could. But it's the rng rank lobby he's trying to climb from, not the custom perfect setup one.

[@makispapa5867]

This is NOT solo queue, this rein is not meant to be Masters. He's Plat 1 tops. He charges in LOS of everyone taking a shittone of damage, his Baptiste might deserve Grandmaster to be fair because he saved him 1000 times. Same as Lucio. When 5 people are communicating and know your intent and understand it AND not second-guess it, then sure you're gonna have a great time. But try this in solo queue, he would be 4/18 with 6k damage max.

[@VLMNTI]

His biggest issue is that because he's stuck in Platinum, he can abuse aggressive gameplay in lobbies that generally don't expect tanks to be that aggressive. He carried that over in game 1 but to his favour. The other games, he got diffed hard by the opposing tank and DPS. KAKS lacks adaptability. The enemy team knew to switch things up but he kept forcing Reinhardt and it ended up being his downfall. If he can just learn to swap and adapt where needed and combine that with his game-sense, he could easily hit Masters.

[@Xerkuo]

He never got "diffed hard" by the other tank but yes he does lack adaptability. His rein deserves a higher rank but in general if he can't play other tanks he's stuck.

[@user-kv4qi1dv4m]

@@Xerkuo being an OTP on tank is usually unsustainable, unless ball. Ball can always work, balls downfall is more often the team playing too slowly not the enemies counterswapping. ''ON LADDER''

[@user-vx2fw7qe1n]

I lack a shit ton of adaptability, so this was a good learning experience for me, I have 5 hours on tracer, my next hero has 30 mins or something, i am also stubborn as hell, so the more I seen people mention adaptability, the more I am convinced, appreciate the advice

[@salem1451]

As a Rein main myself it is obvious that this Reinhardt player has good mechanics and understanding of Rein's playstyle. He held his own well in the mirror against his masters counterpart. The problem occurs when we see him on maps that do not favor Rein. It appears that his hero pool is lacking and that will sadly keep him in lower ranks even if his *Reinhardt play* is deserving of a higher rank. In a game where there is only 1 tank flexibility is king. It doesn't matter if your winrate on king's row and Lijang are 90% if you're going to be queuing into an insta-loss everytime you land on Numbani and Gibraltar.

[@nicolasgagnon8738]

I'm not sure he deserves masters with his rein plays. The first thing I noticed is he doesnt really know how to swing optimally. As a masters rein main, he never jiggled his camera on the left and the right to be able to reach further. That's the biggest give away he doesnt deserve a masters rank even with his rein plays. If I saw him in my games I would know it would be a win just by looking at his lack of "jiggling" (lmao)

[@vigour6786]

@@nicolasgagnon8738 I was about to say that too, he also had 0 game sense to keep track of the enemy rein so he wasn't "holding his own" against the rein mirror, he got verryyyy lucky with his supports with his aggressive play style.

[@karamei]

I really think the ping was hurting him more than originally thought. On Lijiang, for example, he had a lot of interesting charges that seemed like a whole second or two late. And on Numbani, I can't imagine why he would've deliberately NOT used his ult when demeched at the end of the round, so I think ping probably messed up the timing of hitting Q. I (NA) sometimes play with my EU friends, and the increased ping can sometimes really throw you off. Sometimes I just straight up don't queue dps when playing with EU people (I'm a support main and my dps is mid at best normally lmfao). This guy has amazing charisma and shot-calling, and paired really well with that Lucio on Kings Row (who had some amazing beats). I think his losses were a combination of the following: ping, team synergy diff (you're going to be hella lucky if you find a comp game with comms/teamwork like that Kings Row even once a week nowadays), and obviously map diff. Kings Row is favorable to Rein. Numbani is not. He should have gone Winton or something much sooner on Numbani, but tbh he probably gave himself and his team too much benefit of the doubt in being able to pull off that necessary rotation to high ground with Rein. Anyway I think he can climb 100%.

[@D-D-Gaming]

I'm curious, is it that in Plat because of his aggressive play style not many people he's getting on his team are not very good with an aggressive playstyle and unable to support Rein? I know I've been on teams with an aggressive Rein and we demolish the enemy team but then I get a team that can't handle pushing in with the Rein and are very passive. It also is a pain when they one trick and can't play heros according to the map. Like if you're stuck in an elo, playing 1 character, maybe it's time to learn more characters and adapt?

[@Ravitas3]

He got lucky that both team decided to play along him with a full brawl comp. In a regular queue, that will not happen frequently simply because some people like me aren't brawlers. On DPS, I play heroes like Cass, Soldier, and Hanzo. While on support, I play most of the time Ana, Baptiste and Kiri. If he play with people like me, that playstyle simply won't work. I certainly won't be in the ring brawling with him, and + this guy seems to not use his shield at all. Which is pretty bad considering I need temporary cover with these heroes. And this is coming from someone who is diamond 4 in both roles

[@Rock-vk9ei]

⁠@@Ravitas3I’m pretty sure you don’t always need the “brawl supports” on brawl comps. I mean Lucio is obligatory but anybody else isn’t. Especially the heroes you play.

[@ToMaN9]

Other than the fact that he needs to use his shield more, I think he needs to pay more attention on tracking the enemy’s ult, especially rien/tank ult. Also he needs to be more aware on there important abilities for example mei wall ana sleep and nade to avoid them.

[@SagaGuin]

Not in elo hell, he is stuck exactly where he belongs. He isn't bad as Rein, and his hyper aggression and no shield will work on some maps that Rein is good at, but when he gets maps that are not good for Rein, he is outplayed and doomed. If you rank individual games, he will rank high on some maps and low on other. But you can't choose to play only certain maps.

Not using shield and not swapping isnt the main issue. Positioning/ playing the objective and playing atound ennemies cooldowns is what you need to work on. Change your perspective that you need to catch kills to playing for space. Doing so will make you understand a lot better that you can commit/slowly push instead of afk at choke and then charge into them. By pressuring pushing to hold space will allow you to see clearly how easy it is to punish players using their cds being out of position. So simply put, play for space and dont waste your cooldowns. Your gameplay will look calmer and smooth. You will realize how you are getting kills without dying at all. Watch top1 rein getting there in challenge not using shield once. Its all about positioning and cooldown management

Disastrous comms, wasted half the game playing Reinhardt, didn't even know what to do when he went Dva. And when he lost the first round, he barely tried and went Rein again. He has virtually no hero pool, of course that with this he'll never be able to adapt to the people in his ELO, and by extension, never climb. He deserves his rank.

I got 11 hours in Reinhardt, second to brig at 13hr, the only thing Kaks did better than I was communication. Platinum is generous.

[@smogfelloff]

Bro, Kaks’s story was fantastic

[@EbonMaster]

That opening reminds me of [REDACTED] when he played Reinhardt... before the bad things happened...

[@DansFishThings]

havent been the biggest fan of the elo hell vids but this one swayed me. Someone actually punching up for once

[@daltoncampbell887]

His man problem then is flexibility right? Limiting aggressiveness to a point where his team allows him to play as well as the other team. Can’t play as aggressive against mei and if you don’t have great healers or support selections etc. then being a 1 trick rein on top of it likely is what holds him back? Edit- I did comment this before the end of the video lol

[@ThePaulodash]

He reminds me of bumper, the ex vancouver titans/runaway main tank

[@utspxce9414]

The only reason he stuck in elo hrll is bc he doesn’t use shield and mostly relies on his supports but since this is master the supports are better so he can actually play like this

[@kuromiiibby]

he's def at least diamond, if he was more passive in some situations he'd be masters, but I think he's developed the agro play style for playing in plat and KNOWING he's better

[@vigour6786]

12:11 this right here is what sets him as a plat and not higher, had plenty of time to react, had a full health shield, team all grouped on cart yet he doesn't put shield facing up to block the bastion ult damage which ends up killing him. This twitch guy was overhyping the rein way too much, he has potential but from what I saw he deserves the plat rank.

[@karamei]

I think this was a moment where his ping diff was showing. I feel like the ping was actually pretty problematic, it just was more apparent on the losses.

[@JohnIvoryMusic]

He been watching Bowie lol

[@fruicyjuit6243]

His supports are crazy

[@youlikepazza2838]

Mei and bastion are 2 amazing counters for rein and he still did quite good no cap

[@corberus3119]

good supports can fix tank mistakes like charging the enemy while they have a turret bastion. he's better than plat but won't make it to masters without improvement in gamesense and hero flexibility

[@houchansothearith6179]

Let’s go we finally see someone who proves it

[@Jessespresso]

Not a tank player myself but you can see his team carry in the first game. They made up for a lot of his mistakes and saved him. He swings when nobody is nearby instead of holding shield and his lack of hero pool will keep him in lower elo. He has huge potential tho

[@Ezoluna]

One of rein'e BIGGEST strengths is having almost half his hp as armor. Once you get that armor broken through, shield up and get healed THEN start swinging again. It's ridiculous to see him just sit there swinging at a wall at 25% up like what??
