The one common denominator in all your matches is you

[OMEGA]

if you lose Its not your teammates its you especially in low ranks, sometimes there are exceptions sometimes someone has a bad game but rememember the 30 30 40 rule 30 percent of games are unwinnable 30 percent are completely winnable and 40 percent are decided by YOU nobody else.

[Hi, I'm Ari.]

I just went 8 games straight as MVP/SVP only as tank/support even though I want to main DPS. You're the problem. You. The dogsh*t Wolverine onetricks. The Hawkeyes that can't aim. The "I'm gonna play a melee DPS when we have 1 support and 0 tanks and every melee DPS in the game" the dive tank as solo tank mains.

Stop one tricking. You are NOT that guy.

You post a lot for having 33 mins in the game. Console player?

[OMEGA]

did yall even read this?

[An R Key5993]

Bro its a paragraph yes everyone read it. I'm just curious what rank you're in at 33 mins game time. I don't even disagree with the sentiment.

While statistically difficult to support, I enjoy the meaning of the message which is: look only to yourself to be better. It can be really difficult to figure out how to perform that introspection, but if you record a couple matches and then watch them you can see where your micromanagement went wrong and why.

For me it's the same answer: "Ah dammit they put someone in the sky after we rekt them in part 1, and I didn't look."

well if your svp then you can talk

The unfortunate reality is DPS is the most important role in Bronze, Support in Silver, and Tank in Gold. If you'd like to carry that's definitely how.

Reason being in bronze no one dies, at least in a "fair" game. Being able to actually pick one kill in bronze normally wins most team fights, and most teams don't regroup after one lost team fight.

In silver people have learned to get picks but supports haven't really seemed to learn to survive/heal DPS. Just keeping your team alive and trusting at least ONE of your DPS normally wins Silver games.

And of course in Gold teams tend to be finally ok but Tanks seem to struggle to actually create openings for their teams to win fights. Get good at a tank and trust your DPS and support to do their thing.

This is just my observation anyway.

Most people will never admit they're the problem. It's too easy to blame the rest of the team.

People expect to log in, pick their favorite hero and climb non-stop to GM. Because... you know, 300,000 can be in the top 500, right?

I said it in OW, and i've said it here, repeatedly... already.

You are the only person in all of your matches. Sure, crap teams, leavers, throwers, and old fashioned bad luck happen. But over the long term, your skill, and your skill alone, determines if you climb or not.

And every person has their own skill cap, The highest ability they can achieve. And guess what, it's not going to be GM for most of us. When you get to the point where you're trading wins/ loses, consistently over a large sample of games... you've hit your skill cap.

Maybe, with work, you can raise it to some extent. But it's not easy. You have to practice, watch the replay of your matches, look to see what you did wrong, maybe watch top players on that hero and see what they do and compare it to how you play. And even after putting in all that work, we still have our limits, and yours may not be as high as you want it to be.

I use this example.

I can go outside, and throw a million baseballs all day every day, i can go to the best camps and learn everything i can about pitching. But that doesn't mean i'm going to be able to throw a 98MPH fast ball, consistently and accurately, like a MLB starter.

Know you're limits, play to them, and try to enjoy the game.

What? He's being positive and properly addressing the blame. Project harder.

[filmjolk_1]

Nah, the games are decided before they are played. The algorithms know damn well what it is doing. It's not just random, it has full control of each game. You are meant to lsoe the games you lose. Every now and then, like 5% of games are complete toss ups, but majority will be stomp in either direction.

[MajorJace]

How about it was the whole teams fault.
