I fucking did it

I fucking did it

I clawed my ass all the way to diamond through solo queue alone

Why haven't you hit diamond yet Sup Forums? If I can do it so can you

I placed in diamond doing nothing but solo queue this season and last season. Get good shitter.

>no proof
>just shitposting

isn't that exactly what he's doing?

putting down hard work and telling him to do what he's already doing is pretty fucking retarded 2bh

What are my chances at 1500 SR?

>1500

1. Can only play in weekends
2. Low teir platinum:')

How do you climb yourself when it's your team and luck whether or not you win games?

Was that all solo?

Because I'm not a masochist.

Currently at 2865. I'm hoping I'll get there this season, but the last week has been brutal with ups and downs. Play with friends though. Full pre made, but there's this one guy that's pretty shit, and weighing us down. But I can't really tell him to fuck of, he's our friend, even though that's kinda what were all really thinking.

>people are unironically still playing this game

>people enjoying a game

oh em gee, you're on the wrong section of Sup Forums

because i always get stuck with goddamn idiots who cant get on the point or shoot to save their life. I cant carry a team of shitters by myself

> Sup Forums
Shit I thought this was Reddit

Was on a 6 win spree over 2 days and was 2960 today when I lost a game that pushed me back down to 2920, don't think I'll ever reach 3k

diamond is nothing

i literally played hanzo for first time solo q and made it to 3.2k this season

people are so bad its just so easy to carry low mmr games

>23 pts from diamond
>lose two games in a row
>sub 2900
>in between games right now
>have lost five in a row
>sub 2700

Are you the sniper in the navy seal copypasta?

Because I don't like any of the Golden Weapons. The reflection effect they have is really obnoxious looking. Hopefully they add some better ways to spend competitive points, because right now that's the only reward for sub-tourney play. But for now, Comp is just something to pick if you're in the mood for a different game mode.

relatively new to overwatch

Where are you getting those stats from

...

Do you honestly believe 3k+ is a huge achievement? I'm 3050 and don't feel any different. It's too early in the season for ranks to be meaningful.

>make it to diamond after placing at 2800
>Start this endless stream of winning 1 game and then losing 2 every time
>back down to 2900

I hate being on defense. I feel like some people still have this idea in their head that defense heroes are actually viable when you're on defense.

I get a shiny icon next to my name forever and get to brag about my huge dick so yes it's a fucking achievement

I also don't have to go through that rage inducing grind anymore and nearly get an aneurysm every game

Okay, poorly worded. Is it an achievement even worth posting?

By the end of the season, everyone and their mother would have hit 3000 if they actually play the game. I don't think it's impressive enough to lead off a thread with "why aren't you 3k yet" as if it's something notable.

I doubt anyone will care about the little icon. The real achievement is getting the game to run without fps drops on 720p on my toaster laptop.

I'd say Junkrat is always viable.

Add the people who do really well in the games you win. 9 times out of 10 they will be down to group with you, granted they thought you also did well. Eventually you'll have a pretty good pool of great players to do competitive with. The ones that use their mic are generally the best t o group with.

Solo que is a dice roll.

Most of the time he just feeds mercy's ult and zaryas damage.

I still don't get why he has a low pick rate.

Just lob your nades here and there and people just die to you.

>get placed at 2937
>go on to win a game then lose one, repeat a couple times
>you always lose more points than you gain so I gradually go down instead of staying even
>down to 2920 also

I just want to reach diamond so I can relax and play competitive without worrying. It's ridiculous how many more points you lose on a defeat than you gain on a victory.

Some of the losses weren't even our fault. One of them we had a guy stay in character select for 2-3 minutes and we lost because we just didn't have enough time and the enemy did.

>it's a teammate instalocks widowmaker episode

They really need to look into the language barrier issue. Playing with Koreans gimps you substantially because there is no way to communicate with them.

I haven't even launched Overwatch since season 2 started, and I haven't played since a week before the olympic event ended. I hope you're enjoying your videogame, user.

Most of the KRs understand English, I imagine they are just too shy to talk on the mic. And if communication is actually an issue y'all are dogshit.

Overwatch is the single biggest game of 2016 and no amount of shitposting will change this indisputable fact.

Why were you launching the game during the Olympic event but not playing?

>communication is actually an issue y'all are dogshit.
you are not smart

I placed Gold 2 in Smite doing solo queues.
I won 8 out of my 10 games. The other two I lost because they were romanians and the other game was mexicans.

I literally cant get to higher ranks because I need a team.
I lost 6 games in a row after that because it puts like Silvers in my party and they have no fucking idea what they are doing and I cant carry them. The higher lvl teams are comboing as a group and these people are oblivious.

The average player is worse than my 50 year old dad.

I saw a game on xbox once and the xbox kids are literally asshole violated by the bots.

Launched it once after season 1 ended just to see the reward popup thing.

What would the level be S1 -> S2 conversion?

I was rank 70 before i stopped playing. Waiting at level 200 to level up during next blizzard box cash grab. Guessing halloween boxes

>having to climb your way into Diamond

Won 8 out of 10 matches. Attack torb that kept on killing himself didn't help.

git gud and killyourself OP

this.

they only have one job, don't die, and they can't even do that. I'm always on the point by myself with 4 of the enemy surrounding me. shit sucks.

even had one guy say "we don't need lucio becasue he's a slow healer" nigger get gud and stop getting hit so much.

>he thinks the climb is over just because hes close
i placed at 2900 too, and then subsequently lost 8 games in a row
it can happen to YOU

check out master overwatch

or

Overbuff

Because I can't work with any of these teams. I started one game off Plat, and I've been on a consistent losing streak because of some factor, like a last-minute fuck-up on my end or someone else not doing their job right.

Dunno OP I only play Lucio when solo-ing so it's just 50/50 win chance

>,mfw I pick torb on attack on village
>"wahh why are you picking torbyorn we need a tank or healer

no you need to clear out the enemies because you're getting fucked we need an aimbot.

>more complaining

>torbs clears area
>we win.


Why can't people play better and understand whats actually needed in order to win.

whats life like in bronze mmr

gold actually.

though heading to silver unfortunately.

>being so bad that you don't get placed in Diamond and instead have to grind your way to it like a pleb

Embarrassing thing to be proud of.

>gold

>the attack torb is a gold
SHOCKING

...

Have fun climbing, I'm in fucking free fall and I'm gonna sit this season out again. Blizzard just can't get matchmaking fucking right. I've always got a gold or two.

I don't know what morons Blizzard hires to matchmake their games but they need to be fired, this shit is worse than HotS and SC2.

>tfw high platinum playing with some golds normie friends

You gold fucks are like lemmings single filing into the meat grinder. It's actually disgusting how golds play.

yeah and it was the deciding factor of why we won.


I really wish this game had scoreboards because there is way too many people implying they are better then what they are and not contributing shit to the team.

>durr you must be shit because you don't follow the meta
hate fucking tryhards.

Wow I did not ask for this silver gold diamond shit from League of Legends to infect other games too

Following the meta and playing an attack torb are two completely different things, you can not follow the meta and still not look like a retard. You cannot do that while playing torb on attack.

Because I want to enjoy the games I play.

Comp rankings were around long before your shitty moba faggot.

lol copied sc2

look I tell people to group up, and I always use the m,ic. I'm always the one alive and yet I can't rank up because the team does exactly what you say.

some people are smart and try and coordinate their attacks but then they die and I have to wait for them to respawn and lose the opportunity.

If people had individual ranking people wouldn't be bitching as much and blaming others as much.

I'll look like a retard as long as we win.

there was no way a tank or healer would have helped in that situation. I HAD to switch to an aimbot character to help the team.

but apparently that was wrong to you "pro" players.

I clawed my way from 1500 to 2100 today. Its possible.

Do solo queue placements in ptr
>place 2900
Do solo queue placements live
>Go 2/8 due to shitters
>Place 2490

Fuck me. I'm up to 2600 but its gonna be work.

downloaded the ps4 version today to play with console friend and saw him and his team made top 500 last season. should i be impressed? what bracket would that be comparable to on PC?

You'd be wrong, you are simply feeding Zarya energy/ult.

I was 2994 at highest then loss streak to sub 2500. Now I've just given up and throw games the second I see my team go ooga and refuse to cooperate.
Soloque is all about luck.

>Still playing a dead game

>play competitive mode
>>hate fucking tryhards.

??? Maybe pick a gametype that suits your autistic needs like, I don't know, Quickplay?

Should've broken 3k before giving up. Anyway, a good way to win games is to keep team moral up. Giving up and screaming at your teammates will fuck you even worse. Also do not play while tilted. If you feel you're getting upset and losing senselessly just quit and take a break.

It is just a game you fags

I don't have a stable enough conection.

i want nothing more than to play this game, but i can't average more than 15 sec of stable information.

im pretty much paying 5 sec behind.

Is it me or the game just feels with mad delay when it comes to projectiles?
or maybe its because the game has no hitscan weapons?
It feels like im playing with 150ms when its 30ms according to the netgraph.
what the fuck is this.

I can recommend you maple story

it's not about whether your call was right or wrong, it's that it only worked because you were playing against mudhut-building slackjawed mouthbreathers

>if you lose. you drop 50-80
>if you win you gain 20-40
this is my experience and its super frustrating

Kek no wonder you aren't Diamond. You have neither the aptitude nor ability to reach it.

>I-it's all luck! My teammates suck, not me!
Horseshit, I got placed 62 in Season 1 ptr, 60 in Season 1 and had minimal trouble climbing to 70. In season 2 ptr, I got placed 2966 and got Diamond while Season 2 I placed 3050. I refuse to believe all 4 placements were all due to pick. If you're good, you're good and your rank will eventually reflect it.

>lose six games in a row
>drop to sub 2600
>win a game finally with a good group
>we all group up
>low 2900 as of now
so this is how you rank up, by not solo-ing. Fuck you people.

supposedly you lose less if you do well, but I don't see it.

It's still grossly in favor of the lose. Regardless, you'll always lose more than you would have gained.

Placed 2800s at placements and climbed from there, didn't give up easily and I do tend to treat morale when there's room for it, as well as being one who fills necessary roles when needed.
I don't really practice negative communication, I do speak up my mind if the composition is bad or such, but don't fall into the "I fuk ur mom faget" bracket. Thing is that when you say "hey friend, maybe that torb isn't the best pick right now. Could you grab a 2nd tank instead?" It often is received offensively.

Wanted to break that 3k but just ran out of luck, had some real competent and cooperative teams suddenly turn into a series of qp-shitfest until I finally bottomed to gold sr.

I ended up 69 highest at S1 after placing 54 and having 42 lowest. All soloq.
I'm not saying everyone else but me is shit, I do have bad days of my own and know to not play at those times, but it would be dumb to claim that one person can make all the difference if nobody else on the team communicates or coordinates at all.
It IS luck.

last season i was around 75, what would that be in season 2?

>tfw placed into diamond at season 1 and stopped playing after 13 hours

you were one of the top overwatch players in the world?

>tfw there was no diamond during season 1

Ok but what do you do when you don't show up on their website? Been playing for a month and apparently I don't exist.

when I say diamond I mean 62

You know people were 90 by the end of S1, right?

>Why haven't you hit diamond yet Sup Forums?

why would i buy or play this game

>skin mega-jewing has started already, permanently locking items behind multi hundred dollar paywalls
>take the FPS genre which is entirely about solo skill and add abilities so even little kids can get auto kills by pushing a button
>effectively ripping the heart and soul out of FPS

congrats, you got through diamond, you're probably 1/8 as good at aiming and movement as I was at 13 years old playing quake with a ball mouse.

Playing your placements and calling it a day doesn't really say much about your rank

>take the FPS genre which is entirely about solo skill

?????
maybe if you are talking about quake or something, but those kinds of games arent relevant today

My maximum played is 13 hours in comp and in standard my winrate is 60% with pharah, who I have 55 hours with.

>but those kinds of games arent relevant today

lol. get ready for a big surprise
I can't wait for the kids here
>quake is bad, you can't even press a button and get automatic kills!

>finish the season at rank 69
>get placed at 2500

what the fuck

>Trying to e-brag about a casual as fuck shooter

>get ready for a big surprise

quake champions is not going to overtake games like overwatch and csgo

Quake champions looks like shit

Reflex is better

>talking about it is bragging
