You only get to say someone is bad if you are higher than Platinum IV and are speaking relatively. Because bad means worse than average and that's not true statistically. Only in relation to another player who is higher rank.
That's a fair point, but what it is, to me, is still trash talking players. If you're good you're good, and then what you are being is a sore winner. I mean, if you're good, you shouldn't need to put other people down but that's what people do. Me, I do not care because I know the truth. But I know a lot of people get put off by such things and frankly, they are right to be put off by it.
Bottom line is Platinum players are completely above average players. You might be better than average and call another better than average player who is worse than you bad. But on an absolute basis, that is factually wrong.
Trying to wrap my brain around your thought process is hard.
Yeah, plat IV players are aggressively average.
But if you cant climb plat, you're just bad. NOT in relation to other players. Not because someone is a higher rank, that makes you worse.
What makes them bad players is DECISION MAKING. They may have amazing gun skills and accuracy, but that doesnt make them a good player. Decision making, knowing roations, positioning. AWARENESS. Pushing smart, retreating, being a good squad member. If you don't do these things, you are bad at ranked, period. And if you do them, YOU WILL CLIMB PLATINUM.
Plat stuck players suck. And they want to get on the mic after they die, and talk * to their teammates calling them trash because they pushed solo 1v3 and their team didnt help. Probably cuz they didnt COMMUNICATE.
Communication, rotations, map awareness, tram awareness, positioning, gun skill, etc. These things add up to good players. These players can make Diamond even as a solo-que.
People who can't, no matter how average, are bad at ranked. And need to quit doing the same stupid things over and over that get them nowhere and do nothing to help their team.
Said it before and I'll say it again, Hard-stuck Plat 4 players are the worst player base in the game.
