Why no derank?
Hi, trash player here, gold level in overwatch, definitely bronze-silver in apex. Why am I still unable to derank back down to bronze or silver? I'm getting so many points for just camping and I'll b...
I'd love to polish my skills, but when I'm getting blown up before I can even react, it gives me no time to polish said skills. That's why I belong in bronze/silver until I can actually push myself up to and past gold. Last season, I tried to do this for 5 hours and didn't get any points. I feel bad for other people that get placed with me and lose rank points because I can't derank and go back to where I belong.
Sounds to me like you should work on stuff like your recoil control and evasive movement, once you get these nailed the rest just comes with experience.
Firing range is great for recoil control as it's fixed for most weapons, shoot a wall to see the weapons pattern, then just gently adjust your mouse/analog stick to compensate. Keep doing this until you can fire a full clip in a pretty tight spread. Then progress to doing it while strafing/jumping etc....that'll cover your basic movements too.
Apex rewards people that master it, lady luck is very rarely on your side. 😛
ranked mode is nothing for me
Too many premade squads with discord or other communication.
SBMM in normal mode is much more fun
