kahzee.6042 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I was hovering around plat 2 ever since the season started. Then wintersday hit and I keep losing matches. I have dropped all the way to almost gold 2. I was playing boonbeast at the beginning of the season and am still playing boonbeast. I dont know why I randomly started losing when I was plat for weeks.I also dont understand how I can carry people when I keep getting put with bad players.Any advice?

kahzee.6042 Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 I think my biggest thing is you get penalized the more you play. I enjoy pvp but If I want to maintain rating I am better off climbing to where I want and playing every 3 days. That is not a fun mechanic.

rwolf.9571 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Going to say, Balance patch dropped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovarica.4368 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Probably because people are jumping onto the boon beast bandwagon and your team might not be able to kill them or people are still figuring out what works now in this current season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kahzee.6042 Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 I was playing it before the patch. It isnt because of nerf in fact they are even stronger than before. Its the quality of matches. Im getting just blow outs and not even good matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kahzee.6042 Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 If boonbeast is the problem. What toon do you all suggest to carry back up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rng.1024 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 My guess is the more casual PvP'ers started doing Wintersday activities instead.This resulting in fiercer competition for those left and a lower pool of accessible teammates, which in turn leads to bigger skill differences in order for queues to pop.At this point it's mostly about which side of the fence you sit on - it means better teams if high ranked, and worse teams if low rank - which furthers the gap making matchups even harder.But don't worry, after wintersday is over it'll get better.

PolarTitan.8519 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Balance patch affected the boonbeast hard. I think you do like 15% less damage now and its not viable anymore. Charge time on abilities is longer too which sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kahzee.6042 Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 more losses tonight. Not fun at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liza.2758 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 If you want legit answer. Record your games and ask someone in top 25 to look at it and get feedback U could be lucky those weeksU could be quing in bad timeWho knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claytonmorby.3751 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Quality of players has certainly dropped. I got someone in a match who was from gold 2 (in plat :p) who didn't know you could look at the other team comp by looking at the scoreboard.

Crozame.4098 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 You should be able to climb back to plat. If not, then you probably shouldnt be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zenix.6198 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 To be honest. You probably just about hit your skillevel.It unreasonable to assume, one can only climb. Sure, bad luck can happen from time to time and if you are at plat 2 skillevel, you will climb back to it in a reasonable amount of time eventually.If not .....you probably never belonged there in the first place and your rating starts to decline to a more "fitting" level. Im not trying to talk down on you here, but saying that the "system is rigged" or "cant carry my bad teammates" is far less likely than your rating finally settling at a level you belong to.
