posts like these make me think maybe csgo's ranking and matchmaking system isnt so bad, after all

bro the mmr is so confusing

#

I dont get it

Probably at least partly a big MMR v. Rank discrepancy (rank>MMR) so the system is trying to pull your rank towards your MMR. In time, the two will again be close and your games should stop being utter messes (well, they're still bronze elo, so it will be bronze level of messy, just not so awfully stacked every time). Some of this feeling is probably also confirmation bias and frustation.

bro

#

I'm going on like 10 games loss streaks out of nowhere

#

As fast as I climbed to silver 1 I'm demoting

#

Its crazy I'm down to b2 now and the games are harder then silver 1 - gold 4 games

#

This game isnt making much sense to me

#

send opgg

#

my guess is that your alt is a newer account and you got p lucky for the placements games and got a high mmr

summer hamlet
#

luck wasnt on my side

summer hamlet
#

I've never lose this much even while legitmatley trolling

#

My teams are all over the place and unpredictable one game they rotate, help with invading, help with drakes the next they dont respond for a solid 40 seconds

#

what season u started?

#

cuz NOBODY can climb on a decayed account. look at tyler1, a challenger on all 5 roles, yet he is literally hardstuck plat4 on one of his accounts (s8 is so fun), all because of the shitty predatory system riot has for accounts. and tyler1 literally says it over and over again "throw the account bro, make a new one"

#

only new accounts can climb, but dont abuse luck to get to diamond if u dont deserve it.

#

I hate that I have to get rid of it

stuck wadi
#

keep it, because players in hardstuck low elo are strong (hardstucks rarely get matched vs new players), u will never have a high elo visual rank on it, but u can still have fun in normals on it. then reach high elo on a new one

#

if u are a veteran and get unlucky on a new account try again, they cost like 2 dollars. but if u are a new player dont waste money, master the game 1st

playing the same way that made me climb

I believed that when I hit silver 1 and I believe it now

ebon scaffold
#

Is this really the opgg of someone who belongs in silver 1?

#

Out of 9 games, you played well in like 2 games?

summer hamlet
#

I earned silver 1

ebon scaffold
#

not anymore obviously

summer hamlet
#

nothing changed besides my teammates become unpreditable

if you say so douche

ebon scaffold
#

I mean look at this opgg
you're inting every single game

#

you are never in a position to carry

summer hamlet
#

You tell me how to get in a position to carry when your team is perma shoving lanes

#

Then dying while I'm prepping for drakes

ebon scaffold

#

ok course

ebon scaffold
#

get leads somewhere else on the map, why give life and drag for free?

summer hamlet
#

Thats what I did and it didnt change anything

#

They take dragon I take rift

Not inting

ebon scaffold
#

you are
sorry to be the breaker of bad news, but you're playing bad

summer hamlet
#

Not inting

ebon scaffold
#

you dont deserve silver

summer hamlet
#

I do deserve silver

ebon scaffold
#

and the fact that you don't think that you are playing bad shows that you dont know how to play like a silver

summer hamlet
#

at this point you can fuck off if you have nothing else to add

ebon scaffold
#

i am adding more then you, all you do is bitch about your team and think that you play perfectly

#

atleast im not delusional enough to think that i belong in a higher elo then i am

summer hamlet
#

I never said I played perfectly dumb fuck

ebon scaffold
#

sorry playing decently*

summer hamlet
#

doesnt change that you are a cunt

#

You guys need to chill

ebon scaffold
#

meh i could have worded it better, but i got tired of you complaining about your team

#

and not learning to take responsibility of your own mistakes
especially when its literally in your face

summer hamlet
#

piss off

ebon scaffold
#

all you do is complain about teammates and mmr LMFAO

#

not once did i see you ask for help on gameplay or an opgg review

#

this is so clearly just a delusional rant thread

#

thats the neat part, it doesnt work

I had my acc for propably around 6-7 years. Peaked S1 in the begining and propably could have gotten gold if I didnt give up after losing promos once. Played on and off all those years but never really took climbing seriously again until this year. I dont think I have gotten worse but hae been hardstuck low silver and after a bad losing streak een demoted to bronze recently.

#

Somehow I rarely play vs new players but in a lot of cases lane against people with hundreds of thousands mastery points pretty regulary. Dont get me wrong, its still a bronze/silver fiesta, but it feels kinda weird

#

if you are going on big loss streaks you cant blame your team for them there will be thing in your gameplay you are doing wrong

fringe mantle
#

If you play the same way you did to get out of b2, then you are playing like a silver at best. If you want to leave silver and get gold, start playing like a gold and above player

#

And you’ll climb in no time,if the climbing isn’t happening then clearly there’s something wrong in the gameplay and/or mentality

#

Drop ego, ego is earned and still it won’t get you anywhere

faint wave
#

from the looks of it you are perma blaming team , fair enough silver team mates are not the best i've seen my friend play and he gets people go 1/12 and stuff and thats when ill blame him. but if you are demoting and losing games constantly they cant be the reason every game

#

focus on your own gameplay from the looks of you play jgl a decent amount, work on jgl pathing , clearing , and when to gank.

^ in gold i've seen a lot more troll picks recently , like ap kaisa top and yone jgl. as long as you are doing the right thing you should be able to climb to atleast s2 without needing to rely on team too much

the faster you learn that you can grind and grind to get to your goal and then realize that rank isnt all that much better. Focus on getting better, your rank honestly means nothing unless youre dia 2 or higher. and even then youll get masters players telling you that youre trash

Aight here's some valid criticism for every game here

  1. Zyra jungle is pure trolling, in the last 30 days in d2+ there are a total of 44 games of Zyra Jungle with a wr of 27%.
  2. One of your better games, probably farming a little too much, low kp, extremely strange build path
  3. You are the worst player on your team without a doubt, bad mid game, horrid mid-late game, lowest damage as carry jgl, high deaths yet you have the 2nd highest gold in the game. Bot lane that is very fed but only a single drag?
  4. You are worst player on your team, lower damage then the tank support, trolling rune and build path, bad early game
  5. One of your better games, set back by strange build choices, why rush warmogs and build mythic third.
  6. 13/1, most gold in game, 4 items yet somehow outdamaged by every carry champ in your team? Guinsoo on Xin Zhao is troll. Despite low damage, kp seems good. Amumu is mvp.
  7. One of your better games, held back by troll items. On tank Shyv you go E W Q, not W E Q. Somewhat controversial take but when you are fed, game is decided by you so if you lose game is on you, because you decide what happens in the game.
  8. You are worst player on your team. Random top game. Rushed bork and went lethal tempo? Doran's ring start? Building towards Jaksho? Buying two control wards that you can never defend. 0/7 speaks for itself.
  9. You are worst player on your team and got carried by team. Random mid game. Troll build. Lowest damage and kp.

tldr; You played well in 3 games at max, while being the worst player on team for 4 games. You won't climb like that. Things you can do, stop troll building every game, stop playing carry champs, stick with small champ pool, stop playing roles that are not jungle, stop afk farming (low kp on most games), almost always low damage despite decent gold, you have never hard carried a game stick with tanks.

Win rates suggest W max is pretty good (almost as good as highest wr path, E>Q>W and better than most common path, E>W>Q) and these are pretty small sample sizes.

#

W>E>Q is what I've always done on tanky shyv, and it's given me results. The thinking behind why only 1 pt in E to start is that it's main value in jg is the % damage, which is fixed and not increased with rank, so putting a pt in there at level 1, then taking W at 2, Q at 3, max W is optimal for damage output.

its where the sweaty angry players like myself go to show others how massive our egos are 💀

ebon scaffold
#

Better sample size, and that's fair W E Q could potentially be good, but because of low sample size and minorly higher winrate, it's hard to say definitively. So my bad on saying it's troll.

versed trench
#

id just say look at all the top players on the champ and do what the majority of them do assuming you want to do their builds

#

i do a mix of that and looking at the WRs like u r

versed trench
#

now that u.gg has the leaderboards you can just look up by champ and region to see what the best play so you know what works best with specific builds

#

ie just look at EUW and Korea either is good

# finite parrot It's one thing to look at what they are doing with things like runes, items, and...

yep thats where the big brain comes in and u do a mix of watching the top players, reading items, and runes... and figuring out what the synergies between the playstyle, items, and runes are... so you know when to go what... + a little bit of trial and error, for me the trial is for example knowing if i need both second wind and D Shield top into some matchups... and can risk not both to see how it works out and that can help you understand stuff even more at least its helped me :)
