There's very little difference between bronze and silver when it comes to dumb players.

This is true though. Even if they're on your team they can be a pain.

"OMG why didn't you do [thing]? It was so obvious, what are you a noob?!"

Um... yes? This is low ranks, not diamond/Challenger/whatever. Smurfs expect their teammates to play at their skill level despite deliberately preying on players far weaker.

ELO systems are fucked, especially Overwatch.

One thing they DONT tell your is that you "unranked" games still effect your ELO, they just don't show you the stats. Valorant also does this.

Playing a lot, and practicing, will simultaneously make you BETTER and make your rating DROP.

Playing a lot will make the computer "sure" that you are actually "low-ranked."

ELO was designed only for high-stakes environments with time to rest in-between. It's not even a perfect system in Chess, but it's just bad for shooters.

Some players, like myself, honestly don't take every match seriously. That's just not how I play 100% of the time. Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm drunk, and 99.99% of the time I am playing PUG.

Why would you ever talk to people in a video game?
Muting voice chat is always the first thing I do in multi-player games lol

That's pretty fucked up.

"Hey, I don't want to sandbag in ranked so I'll hone my skills in a mode that doesn't put ELO at risk."

And then the system is like go fuck yourself I guess for not starting off good? Or hell, maybe you want to meme. You don't want to meme in rank, so you decide to do so in a match that isn't supposed to matter...

Yeah it's like this with everything. No matter what rank. Especially the very next ones up. Cause they gotta separate themselves from you.

And the ranks above them?? A bunch of losers with no life.
