@HappyHourSumwur What you bring up is the challenge tho. In a 20 team BR, if everything is equal you should win 1 in 20 games. What constitutes a fair fun game in the other 19? If the lobby was fair, you would likely die on first encounter in 9 or 10 of the games and win the first fight in the others and finish top 5 in 4 of the other games.
@hayhorIt is how lopsided those lost fights typically are that chaps my @$$. Then you look at the recap and spectate only to realize they were either 1) way better than you (ridiculous stats &/or rank leading you to think it is a matchmaking problem), or 2) actually not that good (they get killed immediately while you are watching &/or miss all their shots so you just F'd up). I get #1 way too often, IMO. Not to say that I don't make stupid decisions, am caught napping, or miss all my shots. That all happens, too.
Most of time it isn't the opposing squad. It is someone on own squad trying to pro 1v3 to pad stats then down quit. Not interested in winning.
Occasionally if I know a team mate is about to head into 1v3 danger and they don't listen. I fake ping an enemy behind closer to pull them back. It works...
