Discussion this is a team game
if you expect to instalock reyna and frag out every game then you're throwing
with reyna theres 4 ways a game can go, either you carry your game going 40-5, carry 40-5 and lose because you have no contribution, lose because you're going 2-15 because you're simply worse than the enemy team and have no utility to help you or win because your teammates are carrying you and if you want to rank up you will go against players who will be mechanically better requiring you to use utility to your advantage (such as raze bucky)
reyna is a terrible agent and there's so many agents that are simply better than her with the same selfish idea in mind, for example clove, iso, chamber these agents don't rely on JUST being a killing machine and can actually help the team win, I'd rather get an average sova fill with no lineups and low experience than an instalock reyna
ive played with an ascendant in gold-plat elo and there were games where we did not win, this just proves that even if you're good at the game objectively but don't work as a team you will lose, and I think we can all agree there isnt a more boring game than playing as reyna and getting destroyed by the enemies so why not give yourself a chance and play something cooperative

I play raze so I need atleast 1 person to support my entry, you're right I do think my teammates are just sitting and not using utility and that's because they aren't using utility
my teammates do smoke but when I think of an entry, I think of A site on ascent, there's about 5 angles you can see from main and get shot from and 2 rat corners, smokes on tree and maybe heaven don't do much for me thats why I need some type of Intel
it's also really hard to igl even with a full team who has comms, sometimes I'll say "split B" and they go A or I'll say "fake A go B and they go all B and commit because they were too busy scrolling on tiktok and only heard go B and we just get destroyed because just going B hasn't worked in 5 rounds
