The only caveat to this (for me at least) is that lately I've been getting games that have been grossly mismatched. What I mean by that is that I'm Gold 6 going on Platinum 1 rank. The game keeps putting me with all these diamond and onyx players and I get absolutely manhandled. Most of the time.
Not bad, but keep your crosshair aimed at head level at all times if you can, it will definitely help you improve because you won't be caught in a situation where you're probably shooting too low
That's actually why 9 times out of 10 my warm-up game tends to be SWAT as of late. Trains you to aim for the head for the quickest kills, and it's a good exercise for composure because it's a high-stress mode. People underestimate the necessity of the ability to stay calm under pressure in Halo. Until Mint Blitz talked about it last month when he did his AMA video where he talked about how he got so good. Now I'm probably never going to be as good as he is, but if I can apply his lessons the very least I can do is incrementally improve my game!
@warpedbays4388 I've played mint blitz a few years back in 2 randoms h4 sniper matches on mcc, he had a stack of streamers and I was solo q. Dude wasn't that good honestly and I'm not trying to talk shit or throw shade, it took him and the other 3 to take me down everytime but I didn't win because my teammates were getting slayed out hard, I still remember my kd, it was 14/8 first game and 14/10 second game. But you're absolutely right about keeping a calm composure, when I'm at my calmest I'm able to make shots and plays that a high onyx would make and when I lose it (sadly happens more than I'd like to admit) I play at the level of a low platinum. Now I've never really touch swat like that until recently when I got an Xbox to play h5 again and it's lowkey fun, definitely stressful because if you think sprinting around every corner and corridor is the smart or right thing to do, it's not, walking and being cautious is the best way to play swat imo sometimes, but I'm constantly stressed out playing it when I'm really trying to work on my shot, when I go in not caring, I am more calm but less trying to work on my shot.
And I even said in the mic for him to hear that he could clip anything dirty or funny that happens to me and use it for his clips but I'm not in any lol, says more than anything imo
@@GripNationTTVthere is zero chance that you can both play at a high onyx level and like a platinum player. Zero chance your performance very that drastically.
I'm glad people are still on! I can't stand that Infinite doesn't have a ranked team slayer playlist like this!
