Yesterday I literally had a game when my two random teammates we so staggeringly better than me that when one of them and me died in a team fight, the third dude intentionally skipped picking up my banner when it was perfectly safe, accessible and close to him. I can understand leaving me if I ran off and died on my own, or if I had been trolling them in the voice chat. However, I didn't do that [Removed - CM], I stuck by them and played to my own strengths by sniping peoples armor off them from safe place since I'm not as good in a close range gunfight. As pathfinder I also checked beacons so the whole game up to that point we were moving ahead of the teams that didn't have pathfinder or had one that was bad at checking beacons. Matter of fact, the dude didn't go to the close by respawn thing for our teammate, he brought him to one that was inside the next ring so they wouldn't have to rush off as soon as he was up.
If that wasn't bad enough, leaving a match even if your respawn timer has run out makes it so you don't get the EXP you earned. So, despite the fact that I was intentionally left behind, I had to sit for 10 minutes watching this [Removed - CM] play the game waiting to get my EXP. Some people might say its not worth sitting there when I could just go play another game and get EXP but the principle of the matter is I earned EXP for that game so I should get it. Hell, most of the time I don't mind watching my team finish the game when for whatever reason they couldn't come get me. But then again most of the time that I die and can't get respawned my team doesn't survive another 10 minutes cause they're the same skill level as me instead of being so far above that they think they don't need me. I don't blame the guy that also died since he had no choice in whether to respawn me but I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that they lost because that other guy was a [Removed - CM].
[Removed - CM] or not these guys were without a doubt the most skilled players I've ever been put on a team with, they both got over 10 kills in that match (I think my best is 3 or 4) and had hundreds of kills on those characters compared to the 32 or whatever I have on pathfinder. I have never been left behind like that in a match with people close to my skill level because each teammate is an asset to them. In a game with match making I would never get placed in a game against and/or on a team with people that as SO much better at the game than I am that I get instakilled and/or viewed as dead weight. Probably 90% of my FPS playing was like 15 years ago on Halo 2 with people from middle/high school and my neighborhood, so I get that I'm not great at this stuff. I would however like to improve, the area I need to work on the most I would say is being able to simultaneously avoid getting shot while shooting the person that is trying to shoot me. I don't get to work on that skill when I die instantly before I have time to react or by watching a teammates screen.
