  • @HogynDrwg Oh wait until you're in Platinum. Gold 1 gets slightly interesting.. If you try and solo queue to platinum all I can say is Good luck. You'll likely start going bald and lose brain cells from the stress of it..

    Ranked isn’t much worth it.

    I quit games often, would rather be Gold iv than Gold I. 

    but it can be good games. Quit the bad ones or go afk if you don’t want to wait, and play the good games hard. It works out in the end

  • @HogynDrwg Ranked IMO, is the best type of game you can play on Apex... it develops you so much as both a team player (when playing with a squad) and also makes you improve as a solo.

    I have friends that don't usually push past gold, they get there every season and that is where they decide to end up.
  • @HogynDrwg What's even worse is when you get low level accounts that are obviously new and deep down you know this is gonna be a painful game. I can't even get mad at them since casual is such a mess with it's matchmaking that new players are forced to play rank just so they can enjoy a game or two.

    Can confirm, after reaching plat, I said F this and took a nice break from apex

  • @HogynDrwg Bronze is when you have a lot of people getting their feet wet so you have to have a level of patience with your teammates lol. But if you're all mic'd up it should be somewhat easier to work together. Maybe even teach them a thing or 2. Also you can't use lvl as an indicator of skill. They could be a kid that started playing at launch & be lvl 500 cuz they play alot cuz they like the game.

    I prefer Ranked cuz for the most part you do get better tms than in pubs, plus people can't rage quit unless they just wanna eat the penalty, which I love cuz that means if we die early on we get loss forgiveness.

    I surfed ranked bronze yesterday, a breeze to get RPs but in the same time frustratingly awful to play. You can get teammates that are afraid to fight 3 v 1, others that push into late round fights without picking up armor or healing up, not using any abilities, not pinging where the enemies are, but then spamming their banner In hope that you will survive enough to make them some points. And yes, you carry them, respawn them, revive them over and over, give them loot, but in the final fight they chicken out and you end up solo versus the smurfs, to die and see how the enemies you managed to down get revived and come to teabag your deathbox, while your teammates get shot in the back or naded out of existence in some of the worst hiding spots possible.

    Frustrations aside, makes you think how traumatizing the game experience can be for noobs. The skill gap can is humongous.

    @DarthValtrex don't go solo at plat, either you get silent-braindead teammates, or good teammates that constantly asking what you are doing😂
