Anybody on here got some solid tips for climbing past Platinum IV in ranked mode? And camping isn't really an option in my book, so none of that XD Thought it would be nice for people who are also stuck on a certain rank to hear from the community and try improve. I haven't moved from 480RP for two days and it's becoming extremely frustrating
Don't knock camping and hiding until you tried it. I stagnated at plat IV playing solo for a good few days, but now i'm almost Plat II and climbing due to hiding until top 10/5/3 when I need to. I engage fights with my team knowing it could go badly at any moment, when it does go bad run as fast as you can and find a good hiding place, no point you dying along with the 2 of them.
position yourself better for when the ring closes, I know how most of the rings will finish now and it gives me an advantage knowing who is likely to travel through which areas and so forth.
Get used to using a long ranged weapon and trying to finish off squads that are in a fight.
@killsSeekerIf you don't have a good squad - your progress is effectively capped. The ceiling may move depending on your individual skill: but anyone who watched Shroud's team getting creamed periodically in the higher tiers before he even got to AP has to admit that individual skills counts for far less when the aggregate skill level of enemy squads is so much higher than in pugs.
3 people with mediocre aim who stick together and call their targets/fire at the same time at the same guy will shred any single player out there in most situations, nomatter how good the 1 is. This is the number 1 difference between ranked/pub games for me. In ranked everyone does what only the committed teams can be bothered to do in pub games.
