this may seem a little counterintuitive but I feel that playing ranked has made me learn the game much quicker. Having choice of spawns and defending points has taught me the call out locations much easier and allowed me to develop a baseline of tactics on the most popular locations as opposed to cycling through the “bad” spots and getting busted by a line of sight that I didn’t know exist. Party up with at least two other people, switch party priority to game first if you keep getting rolled, and have a more intentional plan of attack each map.

Hat Thoughts posted:u should just start playing Ranked as soon as u can once you've got basics down imo...ppl in Casual kinda already play like psychos so you'll have to relearn some stuff just 4 (in my experience) the different pace of Ranked I want at least two team mates I can play with often for ranked. Gonna start that this week.

Party up with at least two other people, switch party priority to game first if you keep getting rolled, and have a more intentional plan of attack each map. This is actually super intuitive. A lot of people equate rank with personal worth, which is why a ton of people are toxic in games and poo poo. For example, it's really hard to learn the value of an operator like Smoke without playing ranked, where the 3 minute timer means you'll frequently run into situations where you can actually use his ability to choke off late game pushes when there are 15 seconds on the timer. This is true for a lot of operators. Ranked is also pretty much all killer no filler. My crew that I usually play with are playing ranked more because a couple of us don't really have to be able to jump off at a moments notice anymore.

I will say this about ranked; until you manage to get a bunch of games under your belt the rubberbanding between "wow this is a cakewalk" and "slam my dick in a doorjamb punishment" can really suck. Stick with it and get your rank locked in to enjoy a nice consistent challenge.

anyone can hop in ranked matches and if they are even regularly playing for the objective at all it will put them in at least silver with solo queing no matter how bad you are. for reference, bronze through gold is where most casual players are and the only reasons that anyone will ever drop below Copper III are because they are incredibly unlucky or actually somehow worse than a person using a gamepad on PC. putting off the entire mode to the side because you are waiting for people to play with is just preventing yourself from enjoying the actual best part of the entire game Hat Thoughts posted:dokkaebi is so useful now w/ the 600 different cameras defenders have yeah it's a nice addition to her having already had the best DMR/Shotgun/SMG options in the entire game. defenders will never kill their own flat cams or evil eyes btw

The number one reason to play ranked is the lower round time limit. Casual has enough time to roam around for kills while ranked forces players to locate and approach the objective. Playing for time in defense becomes a lot more interesting when attackers have such tension applied to them.

Huzzah! Right before I played with Shockeh, Dante and Lightglobe last night, I ended up getting an ace, for the first time in months! (Despite being a player down and another player on my team intentionally shooting me most rounds, too...) What I was also happy about is that I got a legendary charm ("Little Angel") immediately afterwards, on a 6% chance roll. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sX1iAED5lL4 please don't judge my bad gu throws...I need more practice as Les

Hat Thoughts posted:Congrats major o7 Oh yeah, took me by surprise too, that's for sure. I forgot to mention earlier , too - I thought BB was still where my gu mine was, which is why I whipped out that impact grenade. Thankfully though, he seemed to be (almost) as surprised as me, about being right in front of each other! ZeusCannon posted:Nice ace! I laughed when you repositioned the gu. Those fuckers are fire and forget for me. Bad throw or not haha yeah, normally I just leave them too, but that one annoyed me. Couldn't believe I botched a throw as simple as that one! Just couldn't let it go Also, forgot to mention - when I played with Shockeh that very next match, he was able to make an enemy player ragequit at the very start of two consecutive rounds, by killing them as soon as they got inside. Not a bad outcome, in my books! Oh wow, how'd he survive that! Must've been on death's door after that 'nade - love hammering people, though Also, I'd love to see that "Tachanka's skin is red" bug, drat. I remember a similar bug where Pulse's face was black back when the Skull Rain headgear came out - those visual bugs were always quite good to see - especially on the MVP screen.

Want to see something loving stupid? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN-zxtfM9dc I had no idea Ela was there. She made zero attempts to come out of her hidey-hole. You can see I start planting the charge when Sledge gets shot, and even he didn't see her in there so naturally I assumed he died to the Alibi that just coincidentally came in the room right after. A beautiful triple kill spoiled in only a way I could luck into.

Can anyone tell me what sort of a kill I got here? It was presumably from the kapkan trap. You can see the notice that I got someone, but the little ghost symbol is new to me.

Orv posted:But what... what? It's a skull. It just means they were downed, for whatever reason, when their team lost the round. It kills them so it can credit whoever did the downing with a kill. Frost trap kills at the end of a round show as frost traps though, because they interact in a different way.
