austere glen
#

so the medal has a shine to it

boreal owl
#

ah

austere glen
#

otherwise it's just the highest rank you reached

#

fe. if you get plat and silver, it's gonna give you non-animated plat

boreal owl
#

so that’s why my master badge wasnt animated

austere glen
#

probably yeah

boreal owl
#

i got master and d2

austere glen
#

for diamond, master and pred i think the glow on the medal is also animated

#

for lower ranks it's just a sheen

boreal owl
#

idk this split is 100% going to be more of a test of skill

austere glen
#

like there's a reflection that goes over the medal

boreal owl
#

cant play next split cause im gone for a whole month

austere glen
#

im just not playing ranked br like always praydge

boreal owl
#

so i needa grind

twin yarrow
#

I did silver 2 to plat 3 full soloQ, it's pure pain

#

Seasons before going to master soloQ was easier than getting a 4k in pub

boreal owl
twin yarrow
#

Yes

boreal owl
#

zamn

twin yarrow
#

The problem with soloQ rn is that you get matched with gold while you are plat 3

boreal owl
#

i’m more of a 60-40% solo-stack

#

i’d say over half of my games are soloq and i’m p4 rn

#

from silver 2

twin yarrow
#

Plat is by far where it's the hardest to soloQ, you need to IGL perfectly your gold teammates to earn points

boreal owl
#

true

twin yarrow
#

Usually i do like -50 +100 -50 -20 +200, like i either loose a lot or earn a lot no in between

#

Depend of the squad

boreal owl
#

i try to avoid max negative at all times

#

in gold lobbies i go positive most games

#

except when jumpmaster is genuinely disabled

twin yarrow
#

The best in soloQ is when you get matched with pro duoQing, free top 1

#

Happened to a friend, easiest +250 of his life xd

boreal owl
#

that’s the best until you get invited to stack with them

#

stacking with a duo q who are homies asf and good at the game

#

THAT is peak

kirbyDance so bad

lethal geyser
#

this split is a test of your ability to queue up with a premade lol

#

alot of the comments praising the system are coming from people who are not even in plat yet

#

i dont think the majority of the playerbase realizes how destitute it is being above plat right now. all of us just wait until we can queue up together, no more solo queue in between waiting for buddies to login

#

plat is also a nice achievement, its like being high masters in any other season if you took a snapshot right now

mossy whale
#

it's not

#

it's definitely not anywhere near normal high masters

#

it's closer to old mid-high diamond imo

little verge
#

Honestly I think the system is great. Perhaps some slight tweaks to the numbers could be made, but the mechanics and prioritization for points is what it should have been from the start.

mossy whale
#

i think so too

#

i think total rp could be reduced but it's hard to tell until the start of next split where hopefully theyll go back to only resetting 6 divisions

#

i feel liek current system would be good for no rp resets

#

and then itd make the badge mean more than just if you liked the current map or not

austere glen
#

why are people like this allowed to even touch a computer

austere glen
#

fought tooth and nail through bot teams

#

and not even gold ranked

vague nexus
#

plat lobbies are all masters and pred trails

#

i feel naked with my diamond trail

austere glen
#

yes

#

rare few times you get not braindead teammates

#

sure they might not be good

#

but they're not in your way at least

#

rollers have aimbot at least

proven pulsar
#

lol

ocean depot

...👀

#

ready to hop out of one of these with 2 other people...

mossy whale
vague nexus
#

what region do you play at?

mossy whale
#

na

#

oh youre eu

vague nexus
#

yeah

#

but i played on na too

mossy whale
#

u could probably play na lmao

vague nexus
#

it was the same

mossy whale
#

yeah

#

recently?

vague nexus
#

it was likea few days ago

#

idk maybe im unlucky

mossy whale
#

what time

vague nexus
#

10 pm eet

mossy whale
#

i play like midnighy est hm

#

is that est

#

or is eet a thing

vague nexus
#

easter european time

mossy whale
#

oh it i

#

thats like midday when most active ppl get on

#

but those r like 15k rp streamers

#

im pretty sure almost all preds should be diamond+ cuz theres like 500 preds and at least 10x diamonds

vague nexus
#

pushing for diamond is gonna be hard af

mossy whale
#

yeah

vague nexus
#

im waiting 1 more week and then ill start the grind

mossy whale
#

especially if my game crashes every 5 minutes!!

vague nexus
#

cause by then people whould have probably reached like masters and diamond

mossy whale
#

idk how u get preds tho

#

like what type of pred just doesnt play first 3 weeks

#

u might be getting dragged into diamond lobbies @vague nexus i think

vague nexus
#

i saw a zeus video today, he is diamond and got 2 plats on his team all the time

#

with preds and stuff

mossy whale
#

r u p4?

vague nexus
#

yeah

mossy whale
#

unlucky then

little verge
#

Yeah, because the ranked system actually works most players are too dog to populate Diamond lobbies.

#

It's a shame we finally have such a competitive mode for a game that's spent the last three years becoming more casual, but what can you do?

vague nexus
#

i like the new system, its just that it matches people against the wrong skill level

this cat is in bronze 2

I'm in bronze 4

dawn moth
vital summit
#

played maybe 6 matches this season tho

dawn moth
#

ahh

#

makes sense

mossy whale
#

i mean no one should complain before the end of split results r out

vital summit
#

yeah true

mossy whale
#

except for me im allowed to because my game keeps crashing

vital summit
#

#

what specs

vital summit
#

R5 3600/ RTX 2060 / 16GB my game never crashed

#

but 300h is not that much so it might eventually

mossy whale
#

10700k 3060ti crash every day

#

except sometimes never

#

i dont get how apex is better stability test than literally every other thing in existence

little verge
#

Because the game is a house of cards, no better benchmark than that.

mossy whale
#

i hope it isnt my ram xmp being old dead cuz my pc is leaving me in like 2 months anyways

lethal geyser
#

i think the goalseek for the new system is good @little verge i agree and they definitely need to tweak the numbers as you said

#

as far as "Its mid high diamond" if you look at the data it just isnt true

#

with the current split

lusty vault
#

I optimized my pc finally and am getting a steady 190 at all times

mossy whale
#

usually it's 5% diamond

#

1%ish masters+

#

and rn ik a lot of masters players just arent queueing ranked

lusty vault
#

Watched a random video and followed what the guy said

#

Took me a little over an hour

mossy whale
#

.

#

link ?

#

nunu#0001

lusty vault
#

I’ll try to find it

#

Don’t remember

mossy whale
#

thx

#

just cuz a team is low doesnt mean u should push them

#

unless ur like a god player

#

or ur teammates are awesome

blazing path
#

Someone wanna play?

#

And your team is dogshit and push without knowing what to do and then u have to rat the whole game

#

Yea so fun

#

😂

#

Thats why i didnt play ranked since the last time we played

#

Kekw

austere glen
#

br is rough

#

you're always either out of heals or out of ammo

#

getting ranks is like way harder this season though

#

idk ive just been playing arenas to avoid the whole br ranked mess

mossy whale
#

eu is harder cuz theres less people i think

#

na is not hard at all to get plat

austere glen
#

i probably could get to plat if i just sweat w/ a friend or two

#

but man

#

i really dont want to do that

#

doing it in s5 was already bad enough

#

while the game was fairly simple

#

cant imagine how bad it is now

little verge
#

Ranked is just about making smart decisions. Some fights aren't worth taking, and pushing just because of a crack doesn't ensure you'll win especially if you push carelessly and get beamed back.

austere glen
#

well i'm not smart so maybe that's why i keep dying in br

mossy whale
#

for br it's only worth fighting if ur confident ur entire team is better or if you need to for positioning

austere glen
#

i function purely off instinct

mossy whale
#

especially since like ring 4+ has a ton of teams now theres no way u wont have kp

#

just be 15 so gamesenes becomes instinct in like 5 seconds of playtime

little verge
#

Plus pushing means you're getting up close and putting yourself into AA optimal ranges so unless you have the player advantage like a knock, a crack can be less impactful.

#

It's deceiving, but healing doesn't take as long as one would imagine.

austere glen
#

bat is only 4 seconds

#

or was it 5

#

idk

mossy whale
#
  • teammates r usually watching them
austere glen
#

you should only push when you know they're out of heals or otherwise just low on supplies ,right?

#

or at least when you suspect they are

little verge
#

Nah, you can advance if there's a crack to a better position. I'd only push on a knock.

mossy whale
#

i dont like risking anything in ranked now

#

yeah

worn sparrow
#

battery is 5

#

remember when golden armor = -50% heal time? peepogrin

#

ez 5 second phoenix

#

2.5 sec batts

little verge
#

Remember when Lifeline had an identity? PepeHands

worn sparrow
#

her fast healing passive

#

made her a bit more enjoyable to play

little verge
#

Fast healing, unique revive, just literally needed a better ult and a tweak to the tactical.

#

Instead they stripped her kit to other Legends and now she can get more heals out of a blue bin, amazing.

worn sparrow
#

i dont get why they dont already just change her ult

#

at least make it not take 5 minutes to come down

mossy whale
#

the ult should give everyone 5 billion shields

worn sparrow
#

it's pitiful

#

her rez shield thing was fun to play with

austere glen
#

yeah

#

ex-lifeline main here

#

they butchered my girl sad

little verge
#

Had 2500 kills on her and was my OG pick, haven't played her since.

austere glen
#

lifeline was how i got to plat in s5

#

you could say she was my... lifeline

#

hah

#

imagine if lifeline's ult was just zen ult from ow

#

big heal aura

mossy whale
#

it should be

#

lucio beat

#

no it shouldnt

#

but it should

#

her ult should be like buffed slurp juice fortnite

austere glen
#

idk what that is

mossy whale
#

heals/shields over time

austere glen
#

reverse caustic ult

#

nanoboost from ow

mossy whale
#

yes

austere glen
#

just make her ult a stim pistol that you melee an ally with and it gives them octane stim speed + extra damage resist

mossy whale
#

is lifeline from tf2 lore

austere glen
#

and instead put the lifeline carepack stuff in the blue can loot pool

#

like a 20% chance that you'd get a shield/helmet/attachment upgrade for one of your teammates

#

or 10%

#

idk

mossy whale
#

she should have a large Backpack

#

like loba ult but with meds only

#

and give everyone a million apex coins

blazing path
#

Pubs is worse then ranked ngl

#

3 stack masters/preds

#

When u solo q

mossy whale
#

i see a lot of masters trails in pubs but i think they all die off drop or something

Between that and algs

blazing path

I love ranked

mossy whale
#

either everyone is lying or im in like noob ranked lobbies

blazing path
#

Im not talking about ranked bro

#

Ranked is easy asf

#

Only fucking bots hardstuck in gold and plat

#

Not everyone but alot of people are

#

Its just funny

#

Last szn i got my 20 bomb on maggie in ranked💀

why is my fps so bad in apex?

graceful swallow
#

hate to tell you but

#

because it's apex

#

what specs/fps you getting

placid root
#

Imagine getting 180 fps until there are a bunch of particles floating around

#

😔

ocean depot
#

when that dropship pulls up...

#

👀

cobalt mulch
#

is the game just terribly optimized?

#

i kinda just started playing it

graceful swallow
#

what fps you getting and yea

#

it's pretty bad

cobalt mulch
#

in the air landing like 80

#

and barely 190

mossy whale
#

what are lows

#

on ground

cobalt mulch
#

idk

#

how should i check

boreal owl
#

why is matchmaking so bad

#

i keep getting 2stacks of the worst players alive

#

like actually the most braindead troglodytes i have ever seen

wintry cypress
wintry cypress
#

and yeah in dropship fps is low as shit

mossy whale
cobalt mulch
#

it fluctuates between like 80 and 230

mossy whale
#

on the ground? something seems wrong

cobalt mulch
#

yes on the ground

mossy whale
#

u should be getting like high 100s avg

cobalt mulch
#

like its sucks because its so low compared to what im used to

#

its so ahrd to terack

mossy whale
#

idk how to make apex work other than go through 5 billion youtube videos offering half obvious half useless optimization settings to change

cobalt mulch
#

is it possible to get consistent above 240?

#

150s just feels so bad compared to my constant 280 on like every other game

mossy whale
#

theres a video of 3060ti and 5900x or 5800x getting 220 1% lows and like 260 avg on storm point

#

but i have yet to see anyone else get close

#

a 3080 can get 240 almost always 3080ti always 240 unless ur aceu and have fps issues no matter what

#

i do think that performance is worse this season for everyone though

alpine trail
#

no one plays 240

graceful swallow
#

not true

#

they do

#

they fixed the 190 thing ages ago

#

guys look at this massive damage

mossy whale
#

why the hell

these TSM apex mobile montages have me laffing hahahhaha

bruh i just beamed that dude

graceful swallow
#

only hardcore gamers understand

little verge
#

It's so weird not seeing numbers, but nice beam.

#

I thought you were just having tons of no regs lol

graceful swallow
#

if you dont have numbers or hit markers

#

you're always doing big damage

#

you just don't know any better if you arent

little verge
#

Yeah, better clarity but man I'd be questioning my shots all the more.

mossy whale
#

mute your sound too

#

cover the center of ur screen so u cant see if ur missing

little verge
#

I've been doing no hit sounds for Kovaaks lately with same colour crosshair, that's been a fun change.

graceful swallow
alpine trail
#

if you cant see yourself die

#

then you never died

graceful swallow
#

you hear the cracked sound

#

you know theyre low

#

you just dont know how low

#

if you tell yourself theyre 1 shot after you crack them

#

you win 100% of the time everytime

when you pick up one of the guns littered around the floor... 👀

cobalt mulch
#

What crosshair color do you guys use

mossy whale
#

no red full blue full green

#

so cyan

blazing path
#

Dark blue

alpine trail
#

im weird

blazing path
#

Green

#

also really good

alpine trail
#

i forgot what i had honestly

blazing path
#

I used green for a while

#

its good and visible

#

same with red and blue

alpine trail
#

especially in dark/indoor spaces

#

it fucks

blazing path
#

Yea

#

its one of the best colors imo

mossy whale
#

i dont like green

#

i think it's good but i just dont like the color

blazing path
#

I mean its preference

#

i was about to say that LUL

mossy whale
#

i probably play better with it it just looks gross

blazing path
#

Jup

#

sad they removed the shit u can do it in properties

#

Like change it alot

mossy whale
#

yeah

blazing path
#

shit was so good

mossy whale
#

not sure why it was even a thing tho

#

or how it was

blazing path
#

Idk

#

I dont get it

#

put something in the game

#

then remove it cuz console cant use it

#

LIKE BRUH

mossy whale
#

it's literally just colors but they somehow let u put negative rgb values

alpine trail
#

its preference honestly yeah

#

and thats my preference

blazing path
#

I dont get the point why they removed it

#

Like

alpine trail
#

for "accessiblity" for console

blazing path
#

bruh

#

YEA

#

EXACTLY

mossy whale
#

it made some iron sight rds like very small

blazing path
#

ARE WE GETTING AIM ASSIST NOW?

alpine trail
#

like they do a lot for console but like

#

at the same time

mossy whale
#

wingman iron sights became like tiny dot

blazing path
#

Cuz they have it aswell

#

Yea ikr

at least its not overwatch or the culling

i am scared to play apex

place ur bets how soon will i crash

Hmm 5 minutes

#

Now ima go sleep

#

Tell me tommorow 😂

mossy whale
#

i am going to schizo post here

mossy whale

i have gotten the entire ranked arenas playerbase on my team in apex pubs wtf

mossy whale
#

i feel like i need at least 30 min of kovaaks to not whiff a ridiculous amount of shots

#

i dont even know what my crosshair is

#

its like some dark pink

#

that turns to a dot with the wingman

#

i dont ever remember changing it

#

I miss the customs. Blue with white outline was goat.

#

Or dark blue with outer light blue.

alpine trail
mossy whale
#

i dont get how people can warm up in like 10 minutes

#

it's like i cant see where the middle of my screen is

#

or my eye like can only tell when someone is within an inch of my crosshair

little verge
#

I find I don't need much of a warmup, but after like two hours my aim begins to degrade sizably.

#

Joys of being a boomer gamer.

alpine trail
#

Thats just your aim warmed up 👍

mossy whale
#

1 hr for me to get to okay enough aim and then after an hour it goes away

#

i have controller aim without aim assist

#

smooth and bad

#

when warmed it's jittery and less bad

alpine trail
#

Thats mine right now lol

mossy whale
#

i need like a 20 min apex warmup routine thats like pureg but easier i think

#

it's kinda tilting watching my aim real time and thinking yes this is plat aim

alpine trail
#

^ aim looks so different watching it back

#

Not even good or bad tbh

#

Looks faster than in game

mossy whale
#

at this point im like watching it when im playing

#

i just imagine how it looks on recording

#

i lost my ranked drive and i suck at pubs and arenas sucks goodbye apex for amother 1.5 days

autoexecs work for apex right?

hello, I have no problem reacting in kovaak scenarios, like close tappy strafes etc. But when it comes to apex i struggle unless i focus 100%. I think part of the reason is because theres so much visual clutter in apex. I'll end up getting confused when someone is tapping ad especially when their skin blends in with the background. Any tips?

charred plank
#

apex != kovaaks

you need to play the actual game, to be able to aim with a lot of going on, on the screen in apex.
Kovaaks is easy, there is no external parameters, like footsteps, shots, enviroment sounds, visual clutters like in apex.

#

So if you wanna get over it , play the actual game. In the past there was incredible muzzle flash, you had to shoot the people just predicting how they would do sometimes, since it was impossible to see the enemy.

wintry scroll
#

in kvks u can also subconciously learn the bot strafe patterns which is why it feels easier to track there

dusky summit
#

kovaaks mostly teaches you how to use your mouse not anything else

wintry scroll
#

ye, only good when you are starting out fps

#

otherwise there is no need to play kvk anymore

austere glen
#

apex is also a lot about match ups

dusky summit
austere glen
#

just play arenas

#

ez solution

wintry scroll
#

imo for games that barely have fighting, gamesense plays a bigger role

#

unless u just lose all your 1v1s

austere glen
#

i tend to lose bc it rarely stays as just ones

#

always get 3rd+ partied

#

and i just run out of ammo or supplies

wintry scroll
#

Like i understand that improving aim or "mouse control" is rewarding af, however if your goal is to be a better player it wont be on top of your priority list unless you are new to fps

dusky summit
#

30 mins of fps trainers won't kill ur game sense or ability to get it its a very small amount of time

vital wharf
#

is soloq the same this season or is it harder

ocean depot
#

i could not translate my aim to ingame until i started grinding 1v1s

#

once i did that the concepts started to merge

#

u just gotta put a real target person in front of you and have them agree to 1v1 you and be your practice partner, usually do this after your kovaaks routine

#

then play, do that for a 4-5 months

#

you will start being consistent just dont stop the kovaaks routine tho or you will lose it

charred plank
#

hi whats up

#

let me know when you q for arenas, i will be there for you.

charred plank
dusky summit
#

eh i doubt, kovaak has helped me be a lot more consistent once it turns into a consistent routine, that's the point of it, my aim felt stuck for a while in ow without improvement but with kovaak it feels like you can push it even further

#

i feel a lot more smooth now and more consistent

ocean depot
#

yes me too

#

same exact situation

#

was stuck in diamond for a while and then i joined this server and improved a lot to GM

playing apex for the br

#

how do you live with your favourite game being literally 90% walking simulator

lethal wraith
#

fishing to catch fish

#

how do you live with your favourite hobby being literally 90% waiting simulator

daring swallow
#

how many times it takes for you to get warmed-up

austere glen
#

and you get fish at the end

#

in apex, you queue up, wait 3 minutes just to wait 20 more minutes and die to the first squad you see bc they're all pred smurfs in a premade

#

and do it all over again

#

and you get nothing out of it

lethal wraith
#

sounds like bad mental

austere glen
#

sounds like bad game more like

#

just play arenas

lethal wraith
austere glen
#

better yet dont play apex at all

graceful swallow
#

just find friends to play with

lethal wraith
#

arenas = hive of scum and villainy

austere glen

but if you must, then play arenas

arenas is a full on cope

i was gonna talk about how arenas has some different flaws but i couldn't think of any

lethal wraith
#

arenas

#

the biggest flaw is that enemies can buy anything

#

which means they will always gravitate to the most aids weapons

austere glen
#

which means you get to play mental chess and pick a counter matchup

bc surprise surprise, even the worst guns aren't effective at every range

havent noticed a tracking issue but is there anything yall would suggest me get as a really hard and large (dont) pad or material i could use that wont sound like nails on a chalk board when i use it?

#

another reason i decided to do this was because my whole arm couldnt fit on my pad and I havent found anything of size that fits my needs

alpine trail

For hard pads Ive heard people absolutly love skypads

Little pricey though if your not exactly sure what you want in a pad

when using aim trainers:
should you multiply your sens by 1.25 since ads is 1.25x?

taxi is just not that good i think

#

meanwhile mande solo qs higher than him with sniper only

thats why hes relatable but still way better than me pplaugh

and mandes sniper playstyle might actually work better soloq if teammates dont ape

anyone struggling with translating aim training in apex

#

it's just in apex

#

idk if it's the visual clutter or smth but i sometimes literally can't track enemies

austere glen
#

you sure you just arent comparing yourself to roller players who have literal aimbot

#

or clippers who just cherrypick good hipfire rng?

graceful orbit
#

maybe but i don't really want to blame something else if the problem is me

mossy whale
#

try playing maggie

#

the highlighting makes it so much easier to read close strafes

austere glen
#

there also isn't much you can do about reading close strafes

#

best you can do is hope that you have some map geometry you can work with to force them to move in a predictable way

#

and beam them during that

#

its all just gamesense tbh

#

if you're in a situation where you're getting botstrafed, you messed up 3 steps ago

graceful orbit
#

it might be my fps

#

70-80 fps is unplayable in apex

#

i can track comfortably in quake or overwatch where i get stable good fps

apex is just unstable in general

We need to add morbius to Apex

Cheater or average controller player?

mossy whale

plays both aimlabs and kovaaks

austere glen

considering

#

100% a cheater

austere glen
#

all controller players are cheaters

#

they just have developer-endorsed aimbot

so controller players get to play with cheats, but when i do it i get permabanned? not cool respawn

I just smashed my 4K TV in front of over 30 guests at my watchparty because of the @charred plank performance in ranked arenas today. My wife just took our crying kids and said they’re all spending the night in a motel. @charred plank has ruined my life and my party. I can’t do this any longer. Goodbye.

he said something like you cant walk on the edge of the crater at antenna but you can slide off of it and if you slide backwards you go flying

idk about the others

Okay do one of yall wanna duo with me

No rank demotion

They added it this season tho

also you back to apex again?

When are we playing cutie

vital rock
#

Turning off dmg numbers is such a pub play tho

#

Can’t do that shit in ranked/comp

proven pulsar
vital rock
#

No, it is cleaner but that info is so crucial towards how you make a play

#

Big difference between cracking a guy with a 50 dmg shot and cracking a guy and then doing 50 dmg

proven pulsar
#

i see

#

btw @vital rock how are you feeling the new ranked system

vital rock
#

It’s good, maybe too painful of a sink for most of the teams in the lobby

#

1 rp per kp below 14 squads is crazy

proven pulsar
#

it is ye

#

do you endorse ratting/think ratting is the way until you get top 10 or something?

vital rock
#

Since you don’t get real rp til 10

#

That’s 10 squads every game going 50-75+ rp loss per game

#

The rp sink is insane

#

This system really makes it top heavy now, good players will continue doing good, and bad players will fall and fall til demotion

proven pulsar
#

given the current ranked distribution and the time since season started, i think they went a little overboard with the RP cost/KP value before top 14
but that might be just me used to old shitty ranked system

vital rock
#

Yea it’s what the game needed tho

#

You shouldn’t be masters unless you’re good anyways

proven pulsar
#

yep

vital rock
#

The amount of masters players I get on my team that are truly silvers is wild

proven pulsar
#

but we are like 3 weeks in and still on 400/500ish preds?

vital rock
#

I get diamond arena players in my arena games that don’t know how to fight or take angles

#

You’re telling me you’re diamond and youre not good at the one thing arena is meant for (fighting)?

#

Yea it’s crazy how low it is

#

I’m hoping for like 2,000 masters worldwide by season end

#

Masters will actually mean something

proven pulsar
#

thats very low i believe? but yeah it will finally mean something

vital rock
#

2-5K would be cool

mossy whale
#

i think it needs to be a lot more than 2k lol

proven pulsar
#

wait you meant 2k masters including preds

mossy whale
#

otherwise pred lobbies will always be pulling from diamond

vital rock
#

No excluding preds

proven pulsar
#

or 2000 masters plus preds

#

oh ok

#

yeah thats good

vital rock
#

Nah mango it’s only like 2 lobbies at a time in each region sometimes 1

#

2-5K masters is plenty for those lobbies to pop

#

And mix in a few diamond 1/2s

mossy whale
#

a lot of masters not preds just quit after reaching masters tho

vital rock
#

Yea the problem will still be there

#

No reason to try for pred when it’s 3,000 rp above you right

#

We need a system where the rp doesn’t just keep climbing

mossy whale
#

i mean thats how it is now

vital rock
#

Yea but only at the top top

#

100+ cost

#

Maybe widen pred count?

#

500 per region would be cool

#

Would be 2500 overall if you go based off ALGS regions

proven pulsar
#

given the player base increase it would make sense to do that yeah

vital rock
#

Yea either way, best season of ranked so far with these changes

#

Love how everything shifted towards playing tactically

proven pulsar
#

adapting playstyle is hard

I’ve been trying to solo to pred all season

It’s so damn hard now

it's just for fun

Ok hear me out, I think a lot of people slowed down this week or they changed something in the mm system

All the people who solo struggled this week

I’ve been getting so many gold/plat duos
