Diamond Is the Rank Of Colossal Egos and Terrible Players Because Of Said Egos

[Borko]

Got there a couple days ago, was so proud of it.

Don't ever be proud of getting to Diamond, this is the worst rank I've been in. Bronze and Silver were better and had more balanced matches than Diamond.

People here just... do not care. They think "i'm amazing, i'm never at fault, my entire team sucks, i don't care" and tilt like crazy and int like mad every single match.

I got all the way to Diamond 1 and then I went on the worst loss streak of my life all the way back down to Plat 1 just now because of teammates that won't cooperate, spend all match typing and screaming at each other, tilting like crazy and playing like they have never touched a video game in their life.

I main support, I spam healing on these people like crazy but they go out of position constantly, rush off to 1v6 the entire enemy team, run out of LoS, die stupidly and then scream at their supports for "not healing", and then call me trash when I end the match with least deaths and most heals and assists on our team.

It's awful. I honestly don't know if I ever want to be in Diamond again, it's not fun in there at all.

That's every rank
Blaming your teammates is such a sleeper take, as though the enemy team doesn't have the exact same kind of players.
Also as support you should be doing plays, if you just sit there and healbot your ability to carry will be non existent. Go kill people, if you are not getting as many kills as your dps while keeping a high healing you have improvement to do

Yeah, egos in team based games are always the worst. Since those people can't ever understand how them being a part of the team, and the team failed, means in some way or another they also contributed to that failure.
The problem is some people can't see through that thin glass house wall and honestly think they are never at fault.
I don't even play Comp, and I never will for that reason for sure.

"man i'm not having fun this matchmaker sucks"
"lol u suck ur just bad skill issue"

Always the response

Not only is that not what I'm arguing, that's not what you were arguing lol
Peak bad faith

You honestly think supports should consistently have as much kills as dps? Lmao???? And I'M arguing in bad faith?? Bro you're TROLLING.

Trolls are INSANE on these forums.

If you play ranked in any game for the sake of reaching a rank rather than just to escape quickplay matchmaking or rewards chances are you have ego issues. you are literally doing it so you have a title saying you're better than x% of players.

Gold was the worst, plat was OK, diamond is a massive mixed bag.

That's why it's called support. No because you support your team, but because you have to support their trolls, bad faiths, and blame for absolutely everything that went wrong.

I'm not in Diamond yet, just high Plat, but yeah, I'm starting to have this effect more and more. It's the same in every game, supports / healers are always seen as the "low-skill" class that should adapt to everyone else (in MOBAs, MMOs, etc.).

There's no real solution but to just ignore them, and take a break if it starts to get "too much".

[Tiziel]

DIamond is mixed and more hard than season 0 due smurf and ex gm or above players. I got gm season 0 and 1 and i got a really bad row and now im diamond 2. I gonna take a break for a bit. Sadly people usually will blame healers, yet usually is DPS fault .

Get a team. That's who your fighting against. you will lose less and have more exciting matches.

I could have sworn they started ending the matches if players disconnect in ranked.

Idk what rank you need to be in to not have to tell people to stop trickling. I had a second healer try to 1 v 6, as well as people randomly stagger. In diamond...

[Chunky Cheese]

As to the OP, what helped me climb as a supp main is counter picking between supports. Dont ever one trick as support. Not saying one tricking is bad, but solo qing as support and one tricking is like walking on a tightrope while overencumbered

You're telling on yourself by acting like this is ridiculous, as though every support doesn't have at least one damage ability and the ability to heal themselves.
Supports have such a victim mentality, acting like they're the weakest role even when they're meta and thinking that they have no playmaking ability while having moves that heal so much you and your team are practically unkillable for the duration.

And you're telling on yourself as someone who doesn't play support. Heavy dps/tank-main mentality here, the supports are always at fault and never yourself. If you die ever it's because "the supports weren't healing" you and that's the only conclusion you ever come up with.

I 100% guarantee that you flame your supports for not healing you when you rush off out of LoS to 1v6 the enemy team as Magneto or Punisher.

Got back to Diamond 3.
Then I got a string of matches where, once again, my teams just completely refused to coordinate or group up, were more focused on fighting each other and tilting, nobody communicated at all, and I plummeted back down to Plat 3.

Cool. I don't even care anymore, I'm no longer bothering with ranked.
