I've been trying to reach A rank using my Krack-on Roller all week, but I haven't been able to move past B+. I always seem to be hovering around the 50% range...
Given this, I'm assuming that I'm simply not playing well enough to carry myself and my team to A. But every time I die, I just can't think of what I could've done better... especially so if it's something like I turn a corner and suddenly get hit by an Inkzooka.
I have a lot of questions about how to play a better Roller, but my biggest question to the high ranking Rollers is: how do you deal with enemy gunners, especially when they push your team past the Splat Zone? Even if I try to go around the sides to get people, I can't reach any of them (the entire area is their color), and if I try to roll towards anyone (as a surprise attack, I'm not dumb enough to roll towards gunners face-first), they simply turn around and kill me immediately. This is especially awful given the prevalence of extremely hard-hitting guns on Ranked (gals, Blasters), so I'm not actually sure what I can do as a Roller.
I'd appreciate it if any high rank Rollers had some tips on how to play Ranked, and I'd especially appreciate it if any of you guys have some good match footage of A+ Rollers (preferably both wins and losses, so I know what to do when I have an advantage and I know what to do when my team gets pushed).
...I really don't want to give up and believe that guns are simply just superior in Ranked...
