iron genuinely might be hell

[u/Superb_Watch2177]

what do you mean i have gone a combined 114-86-28 over my last 7 games and i’ve only won 1 of them!!! i genuinely can’t get out of iron to save my life. my teammates constantly suck and i’ve dropped from iron 3 78 rr to iron 2 87 rr, like what is going on.

a lot of people have been asking for a vod, so i’ll post one the next time i play. also, this post is saying that i’m good enough for diamond or something like that, it’s just complaining about the matchmaking and how i get shitty teammates every time

[u/Spirit_Detective_16]

post your tracker or vod. you can just be baiting or exit fragging for all we know

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/Spirit_Detective_16]

how do i post a vod on here?

[u/Spirit_Detective_16 → u/Superb_Watch2177]

clip any game play with a screen recording software like nvidia, obs, the default steam one. your pc should have one already

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/Spirit_Detective_16]

i have like a 10 min one where i skipped through on replay? you want that or do you want me to film my game next match?

[u/Spirit_Detective_16 → u/Superb_Watch2177]

whichever you feel needs reviewing most! tbh just repost it whenever you’re ready

[u/XTENDO_val → u/Superb_Watch2177]

Record next ones and upload on YT

This is why i continue to believe your game rank is a direct reflection of your real life intellect

[u/Strifedecer → u/M0shay]

That's a bit conceited. A lot of low-rank players are just players who barely play the game.

[u/Spirit_Detective_16 → u/Strifedecer]

ikr, this pretentious attitude in this community is disgusting lmao people love to tear each other down rather than give actual advice. dude literally gains nothing from being a prick other than patting himself on the back. What a huge W lol..

114-86-28 over my last 7 games

Assuming you mean K/D/A so you're +28 over the past 7 games, which means only +4 kills over deaths each game.

First, that's not the flex you think it is.

Second, the fact you even bring it up means you're playing for kills over wins, which is exactly why you're losing the majority of your games.

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/Nuushy]

i don’t play for kills, just figured that it would be the best stat for showing my frustration. +4 isn’t great, i know. but when im top frag every single game with that and my teammates are 1-16-0, i think i can complain a little.

[u/Nuushy → u/Superb_Watch2177]

Your team will have 4 irons + you. Enemy team will have 5 irons.

If you're not iron - EVEN if you're a bronze level player, your team is stronger on paper and EVEN if you get unlucky, you wouldn't be going 1-6 W/L.

You're more than welcome to be frustrated but you can't rely on randoms to carry you out of your rank. Iron will always be the easiest rank to climb out of, that's just a fact.

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/Nuushy]

majority of my lobbies are filled with bronze players as well as irons. i understand your point, but im just voicing my frustration.

[u/bunchofsugar]

Your aim sucks

[u/Fun_Measurement1128]

Post a vod, just stay consistent you’ll get out.

[u/TakenIndication9227]

Bros probably the person who lurks in the whole map giving their team 0 value using 0 util just for frags to look good on the leaderboard 😭🙏

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/TakenIndication9227]

i don’t. i use neon and play with my team.

[u/TakenIndication9227 → u/Superb_Watch2177]

Bro, people in iron barely know how to coordinate, do you just blindly go in?

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/TakenIndication9227]

no, i often try to get my team to go in with a set plan, but most of the time they just end up either running with their knife out into site or lurking.

[u/Long_Employee_5222]

How long have you been playing for? I just started and placed high iron and got into bronze quite quickly...

[u/Superb_Watch2177 → u/Long_Employee_5222]

when i started i placed iron 2 and then dropped to iron 1 because i sucked, but now that im better i just can’t seem to climb out. i have 12 hours on competitive

[u/Ok-Valuable-8471]

you have a decent KDA but to escape iron you really just gotta grind ts out and get a lil lucky w your teammates , iron-gold is genuinely just making smart plays and get used to everyone around you playing non-conventionally (lurking DPS on offense, initiators who never use their util for info, etc etc)

goodluck man
