    Im so tired of being paired with randoms who go out their way to push the VERY first fight they can find with white shields despite the fact we landed on Evo harvesters and consoles. Only to get their asses kicked in 0.3 seconds. I’m glad you validated my thinking that EVO’s should be taking priority very early prior to pushing your first fight

    Skirmisher randoms are the biggest throwers in ranked. My best teammates have been control and support cause they don't rely on use abilities to escape situations.

    • @olivierlaborde7887
      @olivierlaborde7887 6 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah man. I love playing the skirmisher legends in mixtape of straight shot bc its fun to just huck your body at enemy teams and see how many you can kill before you die and jump into the next game, but for ranked I have the most success with Caustic (even though I'm a loba main) Like just throwing gass everywhere is so great for locking down a building and preventing pushing, or creating a safeish spot to heal or loot in. Its great!

  • @Wow4ik1

    The hardest thing is to catch a decent team. Some end up at the hotspots and play like they're in pubs and push without pinging or saying anything... they probably think you can read minds.

    Honestly if I'm gonna give you any advice it's not to rely on players playing skirmisher legends. In my experience they don't always play with the team in mind. Because they have a get out of jail free card like a phase or jump pad they tend to be very reckless, you as a rampant have to plan your pushes carefully cause you can't just grapple out or horizon lift out of trouble if things go wrong. I would have left that Rev honestly and preserved my points.

    I'm one week into the game. My problem with it currently is aim. If I find a 1v1, I usually lose.
    But my teamwork skills are very good. I follow the team, ping items and enemies, always reply commands and I even try to coordinate people over the mic and pings. I often help people creating 1v2 scenarios or flanking enemies, so I can help the team.
    I'm not that bad, I'm just regular but in a game where people 100 to 0 in a second, this means a lot.
    I'm working on (started today) my movement and aim with a aim routine on the training grounds. Looking forward to see the investment pay off !

      yeah her ult is seriously nice. Just being able to whip out a sniper and bully teams at long distance, and kind of force them to not push. Its great. I really think the whole echo mechanic needs to be rethinked though. I don't see any use for having echo out outside of her tac. Like I'll just use her tac and throw echo out in one action, and then immediately recall echo on landing bc I don't want teams finding me bc of my bat. I think echo should have some recon potential as well, maybe being able to detect player sounds from further than people could hear, that would be very cool. Perhaps tell you if someones coming and from where so you can hear the footsteps or sliding before you personally do. I'd love that, and it would give a reason to leave your bat out.@@C-arl

    I have an question so like in s20 if you had purple shield and you looted box with red shield core and pick it it will be like conduit Q but what if you drop your core shield core and then loot an box will it give you red shield without it being temporary and instead permanent red shield just like old shield swaps

    • @s1mp_licity38
      @s1mp_licity38 6 месяцев назад

      No, your shield isn't based off the core, just your actual Evo level. When you swap your core with somebody else's you are losing your original core for somebody else's, it just degrades down to your tier once that one shield chunk is gone

  • @cooltron
    @cooltron 6 месяцев назад +2

    If you're solo queueing, the chances of you hitting pred are slim to none ( on PC not console ). You have to be a crazy talent to do it. That's why most people 3 stack because that's the easiest and best way to do it. The other way is to do it on minute 1 of the new season and get master and be the first 750 to do it so you get pred right away.
    P.S.
    Every top player will tell you it's not the best strategy to 50/50 off drop. That's the worst way to rank up because you lose more often than not.

    15:49 just an observation without faulting anyone here(no sarcasm just an observation), you dropped down and you’re revenent was really low basically one shot and he was doing the next big thing healing, so mid heal you blast the door open in front of him while he’s one shot, he gets blasted to narnia and he goes down then you barge in low in shields and health and chow the new castle, there was no way too win that bro, maybe waiting for the teammate to heal would of been better but I understand in the heat of the moment stuff happens. I too have this moments it sucks but watching play back like this helps me. It’s just so hard breaking certain patterns for example me peeking too long and then I get blasted.

    • @Thegamingmerchant
      @Thegamingmerchant  6 месяцев назад +1

      this is definitely a good observation, it could have gotten the revenant killed but it was a play i felt was needed as we were getting shot in the back (the revenant actually died to a nemesis player from behind) either way, it wasn't the best play in the situation and i should have stayed under and not left the building cause eventually the revenant dropped down anyway
      I think this situation is a perfect example of there's a million ways to lose a fight but often just a few clear ways to win it and it just takes lots of practice and play time to understand which are the right plays to make and when (and sometimes situations are just straight up unwinnable too)
