Psychological war is actually a pretty common thing in competitive games Especially in moba games Ask any moba sweat about it and they will tell you that the biggest mistake someone can do in a high rank League game is to show to the enemies that they are tilted and by doing so you are just boosting the enemy team confidence Sometimes some people might purposely try to bait their opponent if they are winning hoping to make someone tilted
@@bobbyblaziniI always wait for everyone else to pick... i just started playing ranked and in bronze kids are like "oh you don't main tank but you pick tank in ranked" like buddy .... we have no tank 3 dps and 2 heals when I went tank I wasnt getting healed so I just swapped to psylocke and had to carry
Yea I agree, I’m diamond 2 and your never gonna be short dps players so it will actually be easier if you play support to help them. And I’m saying this as someone who never lost a single game in bronze.
If you are mechanically skilled you SHOULD instalock DPS (or "DPS" like Thor/Hulk) to get out of Bronze. You can't go healer and trust your teammates to carry.
@@sp-ey4vlall the support players are stuck in Silver and Gold because we're being farmed by the enemy Psylocke as our team is flaming us for not healing them.
@suwazo Yea buddy maybe u should’ve acted a lil more mature and tried being something else that attitude is what loses games I’m sure ur young but you’ll learn
People like you are the funniest to me. There is one of you in every game. The 3rd DPS in the team complaining about them not having 2 tanks or 2 healers. Then when you're asked why you don't simply switch, the response is something like "cause I'm better than you dog". Lol
@@Toptentjmeswhereyesmature? If he goes tank he’ll just die because he won’t have a healer and if he goes healer he’ll die and not heal anything because there’s no tank to eat dmg for him. Most dps just spread out and chase down kills anyway so whats the point in healing?
i solod to grandmaster 3 & my biggest piece of advice is to simply play hela / luna / mantis / hawkeye until diamond - if you have even just half decent aim or game sense you will get diamond for free, my winrate on hela is like 85% and my aim really isn't even that good. once you hit diamond that all goes out the window because at least 3 of those 4 characters will be banned every single ranked game in diamond and above. to get out of diamond, my main piece of advice would be to just find two characters in two different roles, and get really, really good at them. also make sure you communicate with your teammates. if not giving comms on mic, then using the chat and pings often.
I'm a platinum 3 cloak and dagger main, and i have issues when teammates don't know about my abilitys like dark teleport or they choose not to stay on my ult to get healing .😅
@fearofdaaily7355 Spiderman synergy. If you have a good spider man and penny tell someone go venom gg. Penny does more dps then any dps in the game other then a hacking hawk eye
@@fearofdaaily7355 run the hulk mirror, you need to strike a balance between shutting down the enemy hulk with your stun and by bubbling your teammates and getting in their backline
I have been on the most insane loss steak ever went from gold 2 to silver 2 lost more than 20 games so far idk what to do i haven’t been playing bad but for some reason match making puts me with other people on loss streaks and the enemy team is the opposite going on high win streaks 😢
I had the same experience bro, but silver 2 then 18 game losing streak back to bronze 3. But then it finally broke and I’m back to silver 3. It’s frustrating but it’s a learning experience. Never blame teammates just always learn what you can do better.
They Clearly use Engagement based matchmaking. They think you will stop playing if you win too much. Skilled based matchmaking stopped existing in popular games over 10 years ago. They want us addicted, not having fun.
Plat 2 here, almost plat 1. I’ve noticed that the time of day you play in really matters too. Late night sessions are pretty horrible compared to playing in the morning.
Saying you don’t need healers is insane. If you get used to not healing by the time you get to the rank you do need to heal the other team will be better at healing than you and you’ll be miserable losing every game. The low ranks is where you should use healers in order to get better so by the time you rank up you’re not left behind
Not so important below diamond but people don't realize this isn't overwatch, in that game the cart moves at a max speed with 1 person on it, in this game you need at least 3 while the rest of your team takes space ahead that'll get you moving the fastest
Try to queue up with some good people, like at least ur "lvl of power" till u hit plat 1 that will help a lot, u can continue to queue up even after that..Just find to play with someone at least for a bit and then u will be good to go.. That's what i did when i was going back and forward from gold 1 to plat 3
Gold 1 is the same. It's like you get all the guys who get stuck at platinum 3 and gold 1. They blame the whole team, while having the most deaths and least kills. After platinum 3, it gets good again
Me, A Support main: Oh boy, I am eager to learn and be an asset to my team!! Video starts: **PLAY DPS** Oh well I'm sure he'll mention us- **FOCUS THE SUPPORTS! MAKE THEM HATE THEIR LIFE!!** well, now you're just being mean.
People still don’t understand. THIS IS NOT OVERWATCH. In ranked we’ve won matches with 1 healer, 4 tanks, 1 dps. And won some with 3 healers, 1 dps, 2 tanks. It’s much easier to carry a team individually than it was in OW.
@@НаночкаЛюбимая I'd love to know your rank cuz ive brought back games where the tank wasn't peeling by switching to cloak and running 3 supports, ive also lost against 3 support teams with loki, luna and mantis they cycled ults the whole game and never died, both were in top 500
I swear I must have some sort of ban. I have had 1 game out of 15 where we weren't pushed all the way back almost the whole time. The other team always has 2 or 3 tanks and I have 4 dps characters. I'm done with ranked, the match making is wild
I think this is what the devs wanted maybe not intentionally but if you are forced to climb and flex your way to diamond to get “decent “ teammates then I’m all for it, it makes it so that yes you are playing your role but if you’re struggling then someone will step up and lift your load and hopefully you competent enough to flex into healer/dps/tank
One of the best tips for getting out of Platinum as well is going with Namor to counter Spiderman and Black Panther. His squids can do enough chip damage while they are hyper mobile to chip them down really easily.
In regards to counter picks, I find that simply switching from a long range hero to a melee hero or vice versa can be really effective in throwing off the enemy team.
Essentially, these advices are solid for any competitive game. And I mean it, well, maybe not the teamups and switching part, but you know, everything about the mindset is spot on.
This reminds me of that dude that got kidnapped and he said he survived because of his mindset, like thinking that he shouldnt take his shoes off. My point is, i end games with 30k, well whatever, tanking healing damage whatever my role is, with 30+ kills and i still lose. Fact is, hard carrying isnt a thing in this game.
Of course solo carrying is a thing. 30 kills and 30k "well whatever" just isn't anything special. It's average stats for an average length game. If you actually are outperforming the lobby and aren't winning, then you probably didn't know how to play the objective.
@TunaIRL lol... u do realize that if u r in a game with 30k anything and 30 plus kills as an average then NONE OF YOU are carrying. Bro think before you type xD. If i get 30k and 30 kills the game is quick and i still lose cuz im basicly 1v6. XD.
@Knlght0fZero Yes. In higher rank games everyone has those stats. More dmg is being done, more healing is being done, more "well everything" is being done. The fact that you think they're special, means you're probably pretty low. Again, if you actually are outperforming, you'd be climbing out in a few hours even. Like every other player who actually are good.
@TunaIRL "None of you are carrying" This dude:"yes" Brooooooooo.... can you turn your brain on or stop replying? IN HIGHER RANK doesnt mean anything for the guy who is already getting HIGHER RANK numbers but cant climb cuz the people around him are too bad. You never carried a single game, you got the lottery teammates that actually helped you while i take out 5 guys 1v5 just to see my entire team die to a none ulting black panther. Just stop. You dont know what you are talking about, consistently strong HIGH RANK gameplay doesnt mean anything if your team cant keep up with the absolute basics of the game, you got lucky if you climbed in solo que, end of story. Everyone knows this.
Best advice i can give noobies is to learn the basics of your role, then learn the basics of your character, try to find good positioning and back up positions when you get pushed, remember the location of all healthpack and play your mini role well. Tank is good to learn most of the basics and penni parker is really easy to carry with because if you know the power positions and choke points, you can get extremely easy kills with her just because the enemy team doesn't know her powers. To recap, knowing your role is extremely important and mini roles like dive tank, poker, etc is essential to succeed through your ranks.
I'm a bit confused what you mean by win streaks at 1:00. are you saying you get more points if you win more in a row? Looking at my last 4-game streak I got 26, 30, 30, 27
Start doing the right things from the low ranks it self , then you know the connectivity of your actions. When you get to a high rank you play smart rather than to know tactics failing in the same places .
thats cause ur finding actual decent oponnents now so thats normal, eventually you'll get into a winstreak, just remember to take a break after 2 losses in a row or when the mental starts dropping
I'm really new to rivals so sorry if this is a dumb question, but is it possible for me to climb consistently solo support? I picked up the game bc Luna Snow is one of my favorite characters ever and I love playing her and don't really enjoy playing duelists/tanks that much and was curious if this advice still applies:3
Nothing gives better understanding of the game, than playing DPS. Because you have to deal with literally everything, tanks, supps, another dps. And you have no one to blame, so you understand very fast what works and what doesnt.
Your Gold experience is how i would describe my Silver experience, and I don't know if it just my perception or because i was in a different server. At Silver 1 you're in the top 20% anyway so people have at least some decent knowledge on how to play de game by that point. But i haven't reached Plat anyways so, yeah
Yea I seem to be running into balanced teams where we have guys just conveyor belting. Still not out of Bronze, but did have a 5 game winning streak. I’m usually a healer though.
Everyone who complains about the comment that you don't need healers doesn't understand how to play cover and use heal packs. People are way too reliant on healers and expect them to be heal bots. They arent, they do really good damage too and if you are sloppy with your positioning and forcing them to feel like they need to constantly heal, YOU are the problem, not them.
I wonder if this applies to console. I tried playing ranked for a day and it was just quick play in disguise. Every 2-3 matches we had someone leave the game, people afk or running into a Scarlet Witch or Iron Man ult. I haven't really seen much in terms of skill in bronze so far since it really just comes down to which team has worse gamesense. I really wonder how many of the people I played with and against were actually children.
“Don’t let yourself go on big losing streaks” Too late for that. Went from 13 points shy of gold, back down to bronze in one evening. I don’t want to be the person blaming teammates, but dang I had some baaaaad luck with negative KDA duelist (Vanguard main here).
the iq of players on this game is absolutely astonishing like i am amazed. there needs to be a study on the psychology behind moving thru life with 3 brain cells
I agree with the mental game once you reach plat, though i feel that can be applied in any rank. I don't agree with the no healers though. They are crucial in any rank. Id argue it might be best sometimes to run 3 healers. Where you can get away with no tanks possibly....healers you definitely can't.
Having some consistent teammates will make your results more consistent, and therefore you will rank up faster, but unless your friend is carrying you, it's not going to be the difference of whether you rank up or not.
Bro i dont even want to say this but im struggling to rank up from bronze 3 itself 😢 maybe im bad at this, i just want the moon knight skin nothing else , trying to get to gold but not even able to rank little bit too, if anyone wants to play with me im available to play anytime u want guys please
Interesting video. I'm currently a plat 2 player and I'm going between plat 1 & 3 on repeat. I suppose my biggest weakness is that whilst I can for sure play strategist and vanguard comfortably, as well as some of the duelists, I tend to let my teammates pick what they want and then I fill. Even tho my most played hero is Hulk with a 69.5% win ratio which I suppose I -should- just lock in right away and if I really underperform on in, then i swap later on in the game. I do recognize that i'm very.. overly concerned with pleasing my team and picking that one thing that's needed as if it's always down to me to do it...but maybe that's a habit I should loosen up. Lastly, the whole tilt thing. I'm not tilt proof even tho I'm actively trying to find a state of mind where I'm just tilt-proof through and through, it's very true what you said. Almost every game I see "NO HEALS / TANK GAP / DPS GAP" etc.. and if my teammates feel the need to write it, you can bet your ass there's a short fuse in the enemy team just waiting to go off if we can turn the tide of battle and from what win the mental warfare too, lmao.
I’ve been stuck in bronze for so long. I’m not afraid to admit that I’m not very good at the game, but I at least think I belong in like gold maybe. The problem is that every time I play ranked my teammates are actually stupid. We end up having like 5 duelists and I have to play strategist most of the time, and on top of that my teammates don’t understand the concept of working together. Instead they always just run away and try to 1v6.
Call for regroup in microphone when fight is lost so people don’t 1v6. Works for me. If you’re in spawn an see only 2 people are still fighting it’s obvious to you but maybe not to them. “Come back regroup there’s only 2 of you up right now”
bro if ur still in bronze-gold just queue a fragger and drop 40+ a game its a lot easier than you think. I picked one guy (moon knight) and have all 10 hours of ranked on him, havent even played any other guy, avg 35k a game and have lost 3 games from bronze-plat
@ I do it all solo just instalock a frag and frag out. I also have good game sense and aim and stuff so that prob makes it easier but i did the entire thing solo q
I'm stuck in silver, I've lost 30 of 31 included 21 in a row (yes, seriously). I had a game recently of 37/11/10 with 39,000 blocked damage as Groot... none of my teammates even attempted to play the objective. I don't know what I'm even supposed to do. 30 seconds in to every game I can see it's just going the same way as others. I feel like I'm losing the coin flip of having the worse team in every match up. It sucks. I can't possibly rank up.
Ranked points up to 60? I got up to 66. And ranked points don't go up only as you are win streaking. You can be gaining +38, +36, +41, +38. Or +43, +51, +55, +49, +54, +48, +47. Or just go down even every win while on a win spree. That's because score is NOT based on wins, it's based on MMR. And MMR is based on full performance. So, if you are reaching the rank the game thinks you belong in based on how you play/your results and impact (MMR), you will start getting less score even if you are on a win spree.
tbh the statement of not needing support or needing to change is crazy we need healers and good tanks everyone can use a duelist we neeed people to be flexible NOW not in the future lol that’s why plat and gold are the worst ranks to get through
I am stuck in plat 2. I usually fill any role but the amount of AI I get as teammates is crazy. I feel it's you get rolled or you roll the other team. Had only 1 decent game in plat where it goes back and forth.
Given that you're posting right now, you already have a youtube channel, JUST DO IT! The hardest part is posting the first video. The next hardest part is posting regularly.
Learn two tanks and two healers. I am a solo gamer and made just made it to diamond...I'm not the best by any means, and the chat will definitely have you thinking you're a whole Turd after 1 round...but push thru.
I love that Plat comes down to "psychological warfare: tilt the enemy team"

I can’t get out of bronze 3. Idk what I’m doing wrong but I lost 5 games in a row.
Ure trash, that’s all
@@-Ajelwow really??? I thought I was going to play in the pro league next week
@ so do all the kids with bronze here
@@-Ajel can you carry me to diamond big boy
@ like I have nothing else to do, kid 🤣
Diamond 2 now. Afraid to continue 😬
Go outside
@@nukestatic4951git gud and stop being so jealous 😂
@@Ziggyvu there is nothing to be jealous of a guy who is behind his pc 24/7 and wasting his time but yes ur right lol.
@@sameytaichou6726 I mean, it's not even that much? I got to diamond 3 in about 20 hours or a week of playing.
Yea I seem to be running into balanced teams where we have guys just conveyor belting. Still not out of Bronze, but did have a 5 game winning streak. I’m usually a healer though.
What I took away from this vid, as a plat player, was “control your emotions”
It only took me 6.4 hours to get to platinum. Now i have 13 hours on ranked just because platinum is absolute hell
Everyone who complains about the comment that you don't need healers doesn't understand how to play cover and use heal packs. People are way too reliant on healers and expect them to be heal bots. They arent, they do really good damage too and if you are sloppy with your positioning and forcing them to feel like they need to constantly heal, YOU are the problem, not them.
It's crazy how humans think similarly. You uploaded this 6 hours after I uploaded my 'Bronze to Diamond in 7 Hours' Video. Great Video btw!
I wonder if this applies to console. I tried playing ranked for a day and it was just quick play in disguise. Every 2-3 matches we had someone leave the game, people afk or running into a Scarlet Witch or Iron Man ult. I haven't really seen much in terms of skill in bronze so far since it really just comes down to which team has worse gamesense. I really wonder how many of the people I played with and against were actually children.
It’s still quick play until mid diamond honestly. Just more toxic because players think gold or plat is good
“Don’t let yourself go on big losing streaks”
Too late for that. Went from 13 points shy of gold, back down to bronze in one evening.
I don’t want to be the person blaming teammates, but dang I had some baaaaad luck with negative KDA duelist (Vanguard main here).
the iq of players on this game is absolutely astonishing like i am amazed. there needs to be a study on the psychology behind moving thru life with 3 brain cells
I'm currently plat 2, just hit it. Thanks for the tips.
I agree with the mental game once you reach plat, though i feel that can be applied in any rank. I don't agree with the no healers though. They are crucial in any rank. Id argue it might be best sometimes to run 3 healers. Where you can get away with no tanks possibly....healers you definitely can't.
Thanks for the amazing guide.
plat is hell and im ripping my hair out. I've been in plat 2 4 damn times!!!!!
I got forced into playing support so much that I'm now good at playing support. 😂
Bronze: learn the map
Silver: learn the hero
Gold: learn your teammates
Plat: dont get pissed and try to piss ur enemy
A lot of people must have friends to play with because without that you never know when your team will suck
This video is about how someone got to diamond solo and you’re now saying you need friends lol
Having some consistent teammates will make your results more consistent, and therefore you will rank up faster, but unless your friend is carrying you, it's not going to be the difference of whether you rank up or not.
Bro i dont even want to say this but im struggling to rank up from bronze 3 itself 😢 maybe im bad at this, i just want the moon knight skin nothing else , trying to get to gold but not even able to rank little bit too, if anyone wants to play with me im available to play anytime u want guys please
Literally just hit Diamond solo queue 🥰. Tank main 😏
Do most people who play single que do they keep live voice chat on or off?
Watching his game play video, all you need is super elite aim
the title is a little misleading, because this is only a guide for dps/tank players and not a general guide to rank up
Loving all the advice
You can just avoid specific teammates so you don't get them again, just hover over their name in the leaderboard after the match is over
Now there's going to be fights at all the health packs from people trying to flank
I got to Diamond 3 after some trouble at Gold 1 & Plat 1. Gold 1 is more toxic than Plat 1, peoples egos are wild.
Interesting video. I'm currently a plat 2 player and I'm going between plat 1 & 3 on repeat. I suppose my biggest weakness is that whilst I can for sure play strategist and vanguard comfortably, as well as some of the duelists, I tend to let my teammates pick what they want and then I fill. Even tho my most played hero is Hulk with a 69.5% win ratio which I suppose I -should- just lock in right away and if I really underperform on in, then i swap later on in the game.
I do recognize that i'm very.. overly concerned with pleasing my team and picking that one thing that's needed as if it's always down to me to do it...but maybe that's a habit I should loosen up.
Lastly, the whole tilt thing. I'm not tilt proof even tho I'm actively trying to find a state of mind where I'm just tilt-proof through and through, it's very true what you said. Almost every game I see "NO HEALS / TANK GAP / DPS GAP" etc.. and if my teammates feel the need to write it, you can bet your ass there's a short fuse in the enemy team just waiting to go off if we can turn the tide of battle and from what win the mental warfare too, lmao.
Insta lock dps to rank up, got it.
I’ve been stuck in bronze for so long. I’m not afraid to admit that I’m not very good at the game, but I at least think I belong in like gold maybe. The problem is that every time I play ranked my teammates are actually stupid. We end up having like 5 duelists and I have to play strategist most of the time, and on top of that my teammates don’t understand the concept of working together. Instead they always just run away and try to 1v6.
Call for regroup in microphone when fight is lost so people don’t 1v6. Works for me. If you’re in spawn an see only 2 people are still fighting it’s obvious to you but maybe not to them. “Come back regroup there’s only 2 of you up right now”
bro if ur still in bronze-gold just queue a fragger and drop 40+ a game its a lot easier than you think. I picked one guy (moon knight) and have all 10 hours of ranked on him, havent even played any other guy, avg 35k a game and have lost 3 games from bronze-plat
I don't believe you unless you are playing with others. No way you are doing that solo.
@ I do it all solo just instalock a frag and frag out. I also have good game sense and aim and stuff so that prob makes it easier but i did the entire thing solo q
I'm stuck in silver, I've lost 30 of 31 included 21 in a row (yes, seriously). I had a game recently of 37/11/10 with 39,000 blocked damage as Groot... none of my teammates even attempted to play the objective. I don't know what I'm even supposed to do. 30 seconds in to every game I can see it's just going the same way as others. I feel like I'm losing the coin flip of having the worse team in every match up. It sucks. I can't possibly rank up.
My question is what do you do if you’re solo queuing and lose 6 games in a row?
You should have quit and left the game until tomorrow in the second maybe first loss.
What are best servers for eu because it’s genuinely not my fault my teammates are bad and dont understand “group up”
I stopped listening when he said you need higher skill and aim to use Hella
Regarding #1 - you can right click them and select 'Avoid as teammate'
Bro must be invisible on Ironman. Nobody shoots him. Even when he’s unibeaming them
Ranked points up to 60? I got up to 66. And ranked points don't go up only as you are win streaking. You can be gaining +38, +36, +41, +38. Or +43, +51, +55, +49, +54, +48, +47. Or just go down even every win while on a win spree. That's because score is NOT based on wins, it's based on MMR. And MMR is based on full performance. So, if you are reaching the rank the game thinks you belong in based on how you play/your results and impact (MMR), you will start getting less score even if you are on a win spree.
Can somebody tell me if this is good advice? Saying you dont need supports is insane to me but im stuck in my rank soo
You don’t need healing if everything on the enemy team is already dead.
People who one trick are so delusional
tbh the statement of not needing support or needing to change is crazy we need healers and good tanks everyone can use a duelist we neeed people to be flexible NOW not in the future lol that’s why plat and gold are the worst ranks to get through
I am stuck in plat 2. I usually fill any role but the amount of AI I get as teammates is crazy. I feel it's you get rolled or you roll the other team. Had only 1 decent game in plat where it goes back and forth.
Reached diamond fairly easily i was surprised how easy it was but I'm stuck now and i can't climb at all
7:20 All these tips so far I’ve been trying to get randoms in bronze to understand but it’s no point🤦🏽♂️
I need a team😅
ım stuck at gold 3 its so annoying
I just wanna reach gold for the skins. Tho not sure if I need to stay gold😅
@@dominicwilliams214 when u reach to it dont play any much more game ı have done that couple of times and went back to the silver 3💀
@@dominicwilliams214 The ranked rewards page says that the rewards are based on your peak. Do read about it once again just to be sure though
That's funny, I went from bronze to diamond in 4 hours with my duo
If you arent flexible stay on quickplay
This was a DOPE guide. Especially the mental art of war tactics. Thanks.
Outdated info regarding bronze tier... The sweat down there can be insane
Also, healers not being needed in low rank? Untrue
Plat players be like
"Bro is always dead"
*Legit has half teh deaths of everyone else while having most take downs*
It all depends on team though without friends ranked is too hard only so much i can do to help the team
How do you type messages on console
I'm trying to start a RUclips channel, but I don't know we're to start . You're my favourite RUclips, so I thought you might be able to help .
Given that you're posting right now, you already have a youtube channel, JUST DO IT!
The hardest part is posting the first video. The next hardest part is posting regularly.
Can i fall feom gold to silver ?
I breezed though plat got really lucky but diamond 3 has been ROUGH
Great tips
Not wrong about plat. Same in Plat Chat in OW
Learn two tanks and two healers. I am a solo gamer and made just made it to diamond...I'm not the best by any means, and the chat will definitely have you thinking you're a whole Turd after 1 round...but push thru.
I have 86.7 hours played and cannot get out of Gold II.
Bro am i the only one with terrible teammates in bronze vs full stack teams playing the meta?? Like what
Why do plat players have the biggest ego in every game 😭
moon knight is free plat for sure. everyone is so grouped in low ranks
If anyone is reading this, just play hela.
