I really, REALLY want to get out of C+.
I don’t know what it is, but I’m almost always paired up with players who don’t know how to play or just refuse to. I’ve actually purposely stepped back during matches to see what my teammates are doing, and most of them can’t prioritize what needs to happen, or they just aren’t aware of what’s going on on the map in ranked. I just played a few Splat Zone matches in Camp Triggerfish a while ago that just drove be bonkers.
The first few matches I had, one person wasn’t playing and just stood at the spawn point (great, thanks). There was a match where it felt like I had to maintain control of both zones by myself, and make sure I didn’t get flanked by the enemy team. In another match, our team kept getting flanked, yet when I was respawning near the end of the match, I saw that a teammate had placed a beacon at our spawn point (where were those beacons during the entire match!?). Things like this keep happening in my matches, where my teammates are clueless and the opposing team knows exactly what to do, and I’m sick and tired of it.
I know it’s not me, because whenever I twin or squad with B rank players in an online group I’m a part of, I can keep up with them just fine. We cover our bases well and are able to get things done. And even when we lose matches, they’re enjoyable because I at least know that my teammates knew their roles and played as best as they could.
I don’t care what anyone says: you can tell the difference between a true C player and a B player. I know that I’m a B player, I've gotten this rank before and that’s the rank I want to maintain. But the game keeps pairing me up with players that can’t do jack squat.
