Re: Premade duo logic

Just got out of a game with a premade duo. I knocked two in the first fight and got knocked myself. The first premade lost his 1v1 against the last enemy who just knocked me. The second premade duo killed him as he was doing an execute on me. Then he looted the enemy right in front of me. Then he must have pressed close to me because he started the revive but cancelled it straight away, ran to his friend like 30 m away from us, revived him and looted all boxes before reviving me. 

Sigh. Solo Q life =)

    @Balladalidila I wish there was a way to que into teams with other solos and/or being able to tell the game, "hey, I don't want these players as randoms again".

    Right now, it doesn't matter if you do nothing, block and/or report them, the game might still give you them as randoms 2+ times. (The max I've had of the same randoms was a total of 5 times. It wasn't fun).

    You're a better man than I am. I would have instaquit as soon as he stopped my revive to get the other player farther away.

    Blocking these kinds of players just gets you DIFFERENT bad players, it doesn't get you away from bad players altogether. They are legion.

    Haha no I am not. I am just forced to stay since it was ranked and you apparently can be perma banned for leaving too many ranked matches. If this was pubs, I would be gone from the lobby so fast my loot box was spinning =) 

    @Midnight9746 

    I wish for Solo Q only matches in ranked, at least over a certain rank like starting in platinum. League of legends have this for their ranked, i.e when you reach "high elo" you can not queue up with a friend any more. In a solo Q only lobby, team work would perhaps be "worse" overall for all teams but it would be fair. Your positioning in fights, your actions in the game etc will determine how your teammates play around you, and not like it is now with premade duo + 1 solo Q teams where the premade duo will literally ignore you just to help each other.. Harsh but fair and you would also know for certain that the enemy teams also were made up of solo Qs.

    Premade duos literally have no shame at all. We land hot with multiple squads. I land next to them, like just outside the building they land at some bins but I get shot at the exact time as they start to fight another team. Unlucky but hard to avoid if you choose to drop hot. I kill one of the enemy team that fights me and then runs to help my teammates. We all die right after. And ofc the blaming and flaming begins. Haha at least land one bullet before you resort to blaming, dear mr Path =)

    Yupp. Its also usually the worst player in the team who generally feel the need to speak most in coms, like trying to micro-manage and shotcall every little detail of the teams movement and strategy. Nothing worse when you have this Lifeline main or whatever screaming stuff like "Go here", "back off", "push" in the middle of a close range 3v3 and later "res me res me res" while spamming enemy here all over the screen even as you 1v1 that enemy on shotgun range and you later realize that guy had literally 0 damage dealt.

    Ive said it before but I think the premade toxicity towards the solo Q is 99% psychology, ESPECIALLY when one of them obviously was the weak link in the team. By raging and flaming the solo Q, they can keep up the good vibes between them instead of facing the truth, i.e that usually one, but sometimes both of them suck
