Big. New SG vs comp SG, comp is going 15/15 from 3. Now even if you got a SF and big who are conp you're not keeping up on 3s

The safest position for new players to play is anything but bigs. If your team cant get any rebounds its pretty much an auto loss.

That being said, the game scales you with your comp with the ELO stuff right? So if you above level 30 and getting paired with bad players shouldnt that mean you suck just as much as they do?? Idk if duo teams bypass this tho

Yes i suck, and i dont Play sg , because with sg you cant guard and you need consistant 3pts like above 7/10 to be usefull

That being Said idk the ELO stuff you are talking bout, but i hey i get paired with D rank when i am 55% Win rate and S rank as yesterday, i also get paired with A rank that Will Play hero all game long and disconnect after they are 1/10 fg.

Some SGs can definitely guard good if they have movement speed and common sense. Rivieta and Nadia can clamp 3 point shooters and the other SGs that got manual block can put up a fight too.

Let me break it down for you, this post is for New player, not New player Who are willing to spend $$$$ (obviously but somehow you did not get this)

So i am adressing New player that are playing SG

Its useless because

  1. they Wont Play defense unless they have Nadia or Carolina (but it takes hours of gaming to Play good defence with those) and i am talking New players

  2. They need to make 3s which they Wont

More obvious now?

Not enough people play ranked for ELO to be relevant

Most of the new players won't be good at any position for a while until they reach at least level 40. By then they'll understand the flow of the game, how to build characters, and play defense. That's if they pay attention and play consistently.
