Same players are also your enemies. If you can't beat them, then maybe they're not as bad as you think them to be.
Also, I thought you said you were already diamond XD Liar.
P.S. To me, solo/duo queue in platinum was A LOT easier than 3-man queue (unless I manage to get some really tryhard 3-man, which I didn't have that much luck this season (well I didn't stay that long in plat)). Unless your server has really few players in plat, you should generally not be facing 3-man teams in solo games.
To rise in s3, you really need to get those kills (I found that it's still hard to get assists, so just get the kills). Otherwise you need top4 to not lose points... I used to go outskirts and sneak in last season, since it was best and by far the most time-efficient tactic. This season, I found it best to land the most contested big building in capitol city (I started with a small building, but then I realised I can just fight for the good loot building, so changed to that and got out of plat quickly after). I also like train yard when it's hotzone and sorting facility when it's not far from the plane.
P.P.S. If things go really badly at start, run away and hide to top4 (I guess that's one of the reasons why I like octane the most nowadays XD).
