@MoNosDirtyGaming I mean... I've won some great games with "double-digit" leveled teammates -Solely because they followed directions and played more cautiously and not aggressively- as more skilled players are used to. Playing to a teammates strengths can be far superior than forcing them into situations they're not overly familiar with, or comfortable dealing with. Yes, I know if you're playing the game it's typically the goal to get better at every facet, but some players aren't that devoted- and that's okay!
I know you mentioned you'd prefer if they were in their own league, but it feels good to be the Hero now and again no...? Sometimes I'll use a less-skilled player as a decoy... Sounds mean I know, but I'll play close to my teammate while watching for enemies to target them (as big of a target as they are...) then fire on an enemy that is focusing fire on my teammate- giving me a free shot/kill.
We drop in the city (they chose), I land across the bridge, loot up and get pushed from the busy house across the bridge, I drop and kill 5 people and clear the house out and all over the respawn beacon, they on the other hand died in the fight right next to the respawn beacon (after I've killed EVERYONE that they were fighting too), I instantly respawn them and they run back to their boxes, me on the other hand, i'm 2 feet away from them fighting 2 other players, manage to drop 1, almost drop the other and then I get downed, that encounter after reviving them lasted almost a minute, yet my teammates who were 2 feet away couldn't shoot 1 bullet for me? I have to shout down the mic for some help AFTER i'm dead? Please, SBMM is garbage and needs a completely new rework. I ended that game with 6 kills and and 1200 damage and they ended with one having 200 damage and 1 kill and the other with 67 damage and 0 kills.
SBMM is garbage, it needs fixing once again.
FYI, skilled players usually play aggressive, they don't play passive, so that statement there is false.

"...not aggressively- as more skilled players are used to."
Un-skilled players tend to play "not aggressively- as more skilled players are used to." I was referring to lower level players, sorry. But yeah, it seems like you caught one of those unlucky scenarios I'm all too familiar with. Where all you need is just a little help- just a little! But sometimes they can't deliver... Although you gotta admit, sometimes there are some sad moments where even level 500 (or the One-hit-Wonder players with 5,000 kills with One Legend) make some nasty mistakes. And I'm not talking about missing a few shots- I mean bad tactical decisions.
That instance you relayed is a sad one indeed. I remember one time, I revived a teammate during a firefight and an enemy spotted us just as they were revived back up. But instead of combining two guns vs one... they run away (To heal) and get shot in the back where they could've just killed the fellow who was awfully low on health. Sad moments...
- 6 years ago@StarMystro I believe the word you are looking for is passive-aggressive, or slow. Pro players have quick thinking skills. It's not really "one of those unlucky scenarios" if this happened 5 games in a row did it? lmao come on dude, sbmm is garbage. I usually ALWAYS have to carry my squad anyway, regardless of who they are or how skilled they appear to be.
Today there as a master tier player in my team, dude took wraith which I wanted to use, we land at market and he gets dropped 4x in a row, i have to kill all 5 people AGAIN, and fail to kill the last wraith due to the third player rage quitting and this supposed "Master" player not being able to down 1 dude?
This is killing the game off and slowly murdering it.- 6 years ago
@MoNosDirtyGaming Some days are just those days for players though. I was getting sluggish for like a whole week and was almost thinking, "I just don't got it anymore...". I mean, it's like flipping a two-sided coin; There's always a chance for it to land every time on only one side. But... I could be wrong, perhaps there are some kinks in the system that could be worked out?
Ahh "passive-aggressive" yeah that probably fits it good. Although it helps to deliberately be a little slow sometimes! Trust me, even walking (strafing) instead of sprinting can be so much more useful during a shootout or before an engagement. It's a lot quieter. Sometimes, I'll poke some at one enemy, take cover- but not stay there, I'll strafe (quietly walk) to another end. Many times I'll hear a player way before I see 'em. Except for Octane, I'll hear him but he's so fast he's already there...

Sounds like you are in the completely wrong lobby!
Maybe you stop makeing one smurf after the other?
If you open smurf account you WILL 100% play with lower players!
sound like you are smurfing man... Just stop it and you wil lget to the right lobby
- 6 years ago@Flashshark1980 What?? No I'm not- I swear! I was only speaking figuratively...!
But yeah, I get low level players on occasion and I'm level 260. I don't know... I don't see too many crazy "pro teams" (sometimes I do see 'em though- all the way to the end).
