Players that are afraid to engage any fights shouldn’t be allowed to play ranked

Nearly half of randoms I encounter are extremely afraid to engage any fights, even though we are at advantage , such as having the high ground, outnumbering the enemy team or having a surprise element.

We all know the ranked mode encourages engaging fights. You’ll get far more RP by scoring kills and assists than camping into the final ring without getting any kills.

Games with aforementioned randoms always end with 0 team kills and a negative RP.

Some others randoms are not much better. They stay behind engaging teammates and the second a teammate’s armor get cracked, they'll start fleeing without hesitation.

Playing ranked with such teammates is extremely painful and frustrating. In my opinion.

Do you even play this game?
KP is capped at 6, with an early exit that is 60 pts.
Ratting to 2nd without ever firing a shot is 60 pts.
(then throw in the multiplier and any lucky kills along the way)
:P
there is a page here that explains in better detail, how you process the information is up to you.

"They can still play in pub. They can still play with any style they want, just not in ranked, which is all about getting RP by engaging fights."
They can play any style they want in ranked or pubs, that is why the lower ranks exists. If you want better play get out of those ranks, find teammates that play like you and it will be easier.
I soloQ out of those ranks with no issue so anyone can do it.
Better mindset to playing ranked is stop trying to control the things you can't and just worry about how to improve your own game, if you plan to soloQ.
