I'm a 100% betting it's a boosted account, because whoever sold and made the account probably put the name "skilless" as a complete joke, making fun of the buyer lol
I agree with this assessment. The tank here lacked the necessary game sense, mechanical function, and overall game knowledge to be with GM (flats dps) in a ranked environment.
@@Isekai_ofsalesmen Even if we assume that somehow it wasn't a boosted account. What was man doing? He would definitely not belong in his rank even if be was just having a bad day.
I would literally bet ALL MY MONEY AND MY MUSTANG THIS ACCOUNT IS BOOSTED😂😂😂😂😂
I totally agree
yeah they're playing like a bronze
Flats denied so many spectating bronze requests that people are now buying GM accounts to get the spotlight
LOL
The dude literally had to look at his keyboard to figure out what to press to take the teleporter LMAO
Me too and I've been playing since OW1 release
i feel attacked
@@alessiofe Yes, but you guys probably aren't playing in a masters and higher ranked lobbies 😂
I have to occasionally because I have it on a different button on some characters. I'm not used to getting a tp unless I'm the one placing it lmao
@@wexmell I'm master/diamond depending on the meta
I love the spectating bronze series
piggy nooooooo
pretty sure this isnt bronze because flats is playing…
@@motiqn I think he’s talking about the tank (aka “The bronze player”
Dammmmmmmmmm brutal
@@fidevalo i think he was joking dawg
funniest part was where he kept trying to dm the zarya beam lmao
Okay Im happy Im not the only one who spotted that like wtf was that XD
That was making me so mad. And taking nades to the face, like they were clueless about DM.
he probably was trying to eat the zarya grav
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate flats absolutely popping off as cass?
Hard carried fr
he was going hard. butter smooth aim
what mercy pocket does to a mf
Spends so much time in the practice range as him, he better do well
“Flats Cassidy” sounds like a cowboy name
The fact that people defend that is wild (unless they're just joking). There is no way with the mechanical skill shown they are in that game for any reason other than boosted or trolling. I've only been playing since OW2 and its blatantly obvious.
I would just think that someone's little cousin that's playing on their account
@@beeshoneys I would never let my little cousin play on **ranked** of all modes. It's not even the most fun lol.
@@elijahpark5344 Did probably weren't around and this might be their 2nd account
I lowkey don't think its boosted because during round 1 they hammered enemy twice and enemy was 1 hp and instead of hammering a 3rd time to finish them off they just backed away, I don't think even a bronze player would do that, with a bronze brain ur a big guy with hammer, u can 1x5, this dude is backing away as a rein, nobody knows how to press backwards in low elo
People who were defending him bruh gold 5 at most no shot
That diva play is bronze at best. Dude kept trying to swallow Zarya beam and his diving in the first round was comical at best
Not even bronze they have to make a new rank with this guy called tin
@@Glizzyman LMAO yeah, i feel like they were also throwing maybe to derank, bc he damaged an enemy til they were 1hp and then backed away even tho he couldve secured the kill(s)
At least the queue times improved lmao
This has nothing to do with the matchmaker. If a player gets boosted, the game has literally no way of knowing that this account, which has been playing at a master's performance, has suddenly shifted to being a silver player at best. How is the game supposed to predict that a player is suddenly bad now??
@@Ren_CaI thought it was a joke and I laughed 😆
@@WordsinSpanishSam why?
@@Ren_Ca Because, as you stated, that has nothing to do with the matchmaker. So it was (at least to me) clearly said with sarcasm
definitely a troll, the sleeping Dva is what got me, he could have pinned, ignored or even started swinging a bunch, but instead he sees the sleep drops shield, swings one time to wake her up and puts shield back up, a good player would probably have pinned and a low rank player would have either left them asleep or started swinging like there's no tomorrow. hard trolling by waking her up like that.
You've not been in low elo long enough if you don't think a shield-only Rein would just poke her once and then run away.
@@GummyDinosaursify this
@@GummyDinosaursify This shit is not just low elo.
I'm diamond. Now, with the current mish-mash of matchmaking, I don't know what rank my Ashe was, but here is what deserves to be comedy skit:
I'm on Ana. The fight is lost, I'm reloading, no nade, I'm 1hp and I'm just running away. I turn the corner and I see my low HP Ashe a few meters ahead, also running away. Then I hear DVa boosting at me from behind, about to turn the same corner, I do a 180 insta sleep dart before the DVa can react with matrix (kind of proud of myself there) and I keep on running.
All is good until my Ashe turns around...she stops...she looks at the sleeping DVa...then looks at me...then looks at DVa again...and SHOOTS A SINGLE FUCKING BULLET. The most hilarious thing is how she jumped and jittered right after that shot, she was definitely terrified of what she's just done :DDDD
A second later we were both dead.
I think what a lot of people including flats missed, was that this individual had to look at their keyboard to press the interact button to take the Sym teleports, and that's probably why they missed the first TP to begin with. This leads me to believe one of two things: One, this individual has special controls/is completely new to OW, meaning that this is a purchased account and most likely not "boosted" but sold at a high rank. Or two, this is some kid on his or her older sibling's account. The choppy aim and constant panicking looks like that of a child who's never played on MnK before, and is used to playing on an Xbox, but wanted to play on PC. The trash talk against the DPS and the lack of awareness says (to me at least) definitely an Xbox kid who's never really been shown what good gameplay looks like, and is a high gold on console.
TL;DR
I think it's either a kid who's used to xbox playing on their sibling's PC, or this is an entirely new player who bought a high rank account and has no idea what's going on.
It took me a while to realize that to flats "maybe he's just bad" means something other than "he doesn't belong at his rank". Interesting
But ya I don't think it's possible for someone to troll by acting that bronze
I had a guy throwing my comp game earlier too. Used ball and just rolled around never hooked onto anything never shot anything just kept rolling and hiding in corners until they got found and killed. ended the ranked game with less then 200 damage from some mines they put down on a nanod rehinhardt
def sounds like a small child booting up ow and not knowing how to play
@@flogchamp9530 this is a competitive game in gold/plat lobbies they should know how to play by then and if your teaching someone do it in quick play games not comp
If Zayra didn't cap out at 100% this D.Va would be at 300%
I see all the training room Cass has been paying off
I love to think that if I let my friends play tank this is what they do
Oh that is big issue I had in ranked. When my tank just was to scared to take space even though my duo queue popped off and got two of the enemies. He didn't take space until his nemesis form was ready as ramattra as if he only can take space in that form. The match maker screwed me there a lot as I had countless tanks just not want to tank yet they queued up for it lol.
I have the opposite problem. When I tank everyone else is too scared go move forward.
That TP at the beginning, that's more than I can say for my teammates in plat, especially on that point of Lijiang. I love playing Sym but my team only takes that TP like 2% of the time. Like they had the option to bypass their damage from the choke, but they choose to stay through it as though they don't know that TP exists.
Flats is like the only interaction I have with the game anymore
In a GM lobby, everyone should be decent at the game. This dude didn't even know where he left his lunch.
Poor flats put his whole team on his back and still lost 😅
Sweet, it's not just me getting these players in ranked. Back to mystery heroes where players queue because they are good at every role instead of just one or two heroes.
Thats the opposite reason people play mystery heroes.
I play Mystery Heroes because it is supposed to be for fun and I'm indecisive. We are not the same.
flats be shmoovin with Mcree, you love to see it
who
I love how people who insist on calling him Mccree can't even fucking spell it right. Like if you're gonna be anal can you at least be right about what you're trying to accomplish
this is incredibly funny to watch because i've played with that guy and im a beginner to overwatch, what in the world is he doing in flats's game?
No you haven't. Do you know how many players are named skilless
Flats you should just never ask "what rank is this?" Because you're just setting yourself up for disapointment
Oh look, it's every game I've ever dps-ed in, with tanks and healers feeding like they're crab legs at the chinese buffet.
Overwatch should do a test one day and just put absolutely everyone in GM and let the chaos ensue and whoever deranks will truly deserve the derank while the rest struggle to keep up and prove they are good enough for higher ranks.
not even 2 minutes in and the amount of shit that just happened
This feels the same as when they were doing the secret thrower games so he probably got the thrower role
This is the kinda stuff I deal with all the time. It was really eye opening to get a masters lobby and experience a full team of 5 players knowing how to play the game. Looks like the ow team still has some matchmaking things to work on..
Skilless wouldn’t even be my worst teammate of the day
idk whats funnier to watch, the player or flats' mug turning red from basic movement and raising his voice
To that guy that Flats said their comment about pro player saying how bad the player is as if he wasn't aware of players below him, shut the HELL UP. I understand that there is people who are actually like that, but Flats is defo not one of those people, he is one of the very few people I can actually trust in the OW community and knows his stuff and knows how to ACTUALLY balance things and everything. In terms of including not just OW but also every other game, this man is still one of the only few people who can actually cook and make a 5 Michelin (don't know how it's spelled) Star plate. Let alone can make a decent meal. He genuinely knows what he's talking about and knows a good amount of the in's and out's in business in general, especially in gaming businesses. He knows his stuff unlike most top players for ANY game.
People like to shit on flats for having opinions when he is entitled to his own especially after playing the game for so many years. People always say he has a bias for tank and cried consistently, but everybody does everybody has complaints about his game and he comments on every problem not just tank.
It’s also gotten worse with new players coming in from 2, I have seen so many people on his tiktok and RUclips immediately attack his looks as if it has anything to do with his content
I think Bliz will be a bit embarrassed when they see this high profile example of something they claimed they're cracking down on.
removing performance based sr gain/loss is very epic
Love the spectating videos, I hate they're so rare
The sad part is that even as a Console Plat player, I see shitlords like this in one out of every 5 or 6 games. Just runs into the enemy head first, has 0 spatial awareness of where the enemy is around them (or their team for that matter), spams the attack button and every ability they have while simultaneously hitting everything in the environment BUT the enemy, tries to play from the backlines at the weirdest times with heroes meant to be in the enemy's space, and then starts screaming at their DPS for being trash and their Supports for not healing enough.
Like it constantly surprises me seeing Content Creators trying to explain away that no, some players can’t possibly only have 2 brain cells dedicated only to walking forward and shoot. But like yeah play in the mud and you’d be amazed at what you see
Mercy bodyblocking for you is peak support
we need a new series calld 'spectating actual bots' lol
Good egg galaxy fits so well with a flats video, something about it is so soothing
when you are new to the game and you know by the stats who is trowing because you would know what stats they would be at if they were new
He repeatedly tried to defense matrix Zarya beam… just btw…
As a Diamand dps… this looks exactly like about one third of the tanks I get for real.
Definitely a boosted account, I think. My reasoning: 13:40. This man is panicking on point, when no enemies are even looking at him. All logic goes out the window. He did not pin the Dva off point because it never occurred to him to do so. Instead, all he is focusing on is his team is dying and they are losing, so time to flail around with a rein's hammer and hope for the best.
My man accidentally ate the wrong cookies from the kitchen and was zoned out of his mind
I think a 3rd possibility has to be considered, falling over drunk/floating away high.
Ok mr. Flats
Silver 2 checking in. They are definitely boosted as I can see the 'trash' plays I make when rewatching games, but they still aren't this bad.
there's been so many people that are plat and below in season 2 now suddenly masters/GM with a ~50% win rate. I'm really sick of ranked inflation since there's a lot of people in my mid masters games that have no idea what they're doing
This guy wasn't trying to throw... He was 100% boosted or a bought account. The shield only Rein, the not understanding how the TP works and having to sit there to figure out what button to press, poor positioning, getting lost, not able to track cooldowns, not using DM correctly/trying to DM beam, playing behind the DPS, staying away from the grav... This is all stuff I see from Bronze randos in QP. I've seen PLENTY of people throwing and this isn't legitimate throwing. This is a bronze level player who's used to getting carried by the T500 players because they bought their account and they're getting pissy because they're losing.
I was listening to Egg Planet when It came on for the outro and I was mega confused for a second
this guy looks at the ground like a new player trying to see where they are going.
This is recent enough that it may just be they got a really good game and got shot up into Masters as part of the anti-smurf mechanism in competitive. I know I'm not a very good player, but I can usually do something in QP. In competitive, I get one good game and then the next few I can't do crap because I'm outclassed that hard.
Welcome to matchmaking in 2023. I see this type of match ups ALL the time of wildly different skill bases.
But think of them sick short queue times of a not dying game!
The guy didn't even get a single kill that entire game...
This guy has worse awareness than I did on my first ever game
Shouldve called him out for 4.6k damage
I quite literally have seen bronze players with better awareness and decision making than that guy... 1000% boosted
when you see people walking into a wall it could be spotty connection. I had a game where i was diva had a bad connection saw myself in the p.o.t.g it was the dumbest and funniest thing i saw.
as a Plat 3 tank....this hurt to watch lol. Yeah they definitely gotta be trolling.
Average "I should be a higher rank but my teammates are holding me back" player
Well I’ll tell you what every GM and t500 tells me when I get these players in my game: “it’s 100% your fault nobody else’s”
Its an acc buyer. He is like below gold
just look like the average plat games I have
it could have been someone letting their kid or little sibling play on their account, possibly without their knowledge as well.
looked like trolling to me. I have an alt that I wanted to be placed in silver/gold for and this guy looked like me when I threw my placements. Being around but never making an impact. doing small fake engages that lead to certain death. Waiting in the back like you're trying to group. dying right after you group. not fulfilling the basic duties of the role what so ever
Tbf tho, highest I hit on tank was low diamond and they put me into grandmaster/masters lobbies too. I just didn't place there because I stopped playing after we lost 5 games in a row and I was still in masters lobbies (nowhere near my skill range)
With the current state of matchmaking I don't think it really matters what rank anyone is anymore. I was in a match with a Grandmaster the other day and I'm Silver 2. Lol
Your back must be sore after that carry.
Gusty Garden music choice is balla
This guy plays like me when i play tank; I've never played tank, never did in ow1 and most certainly wont in ow2...but is funny, this is totally a boosted account xd
Why tho? You're missing out on 1/3 of the gameplay
@@Olmeuu don't have the mental to be the only one in that role, being so dependant on support and being pressured into generating space, peeling and since tank diff is what makes you lose or win games I can't deal with that :(
YOOOO!! I remember this guy from my ranked games a couple days ago, had to perma-avoid him. 99.999% certain he's hard boosted instead of throwing, but who knows.
BEGGING YOU to look up Overwatch 2 boosting services, I promise you you'll be UN-pleasantly surprised at how many there are. Seems that ever since OW2 there's been a massive influx of players who think they belong in GM and will pay someone to get them out of "elo hell". I've encountered two people who've outright admitted it because the game was so hard at a GM level that they got overwhelmed and apologized for it. Really weird that it's even a thing we have to worry about.
I agree with flat's assessment, either boosted, or trolling.
Plat is full of those kind tanks, many times they are searching the door to narnia far far behind, like i got slept rein kept shield up just behind me, asked if hes trolling, he got mad. all game he ran to Payload and shieldet there :DDDDDD
No joke, no meme- his gameplay is slightly worse than the tanks in my silver 5 support lobbies.
As a plat player, I can confidently say this guy was either throwing oflr was a silver boosted player
my bro got confused and is doin a gm to bronze speedrun💀
the lowest elo player on your team should have an equivalent on the other team but when the your anchor is a tank and theirs is anything else the difference is massive
Im really worried imma get this treatment. Ik theres a bit of rank inflation but i have really been getting better at my dps as a tank main and I am d1 and im trying for masters
Ranks aren’t inflated they are lower than their supposed to be right now.
@@robertzehm 95% of the masters players I've seen in my lobbies were plat in ow1. Ranked is entirely broken rn and ranks are infinitely higher than they should be
@@zacheryjones6700OW1 ranks are not comparable to OW2 ranks.
OW2 had a huge influx of new players, and according to Blizzard the vast majority of those players are bronze.
When a very large amount of new players starts occupying the low ranks all of the old players naturally get shifted upward without them having to improve at all.
Crazy idea but new OW2 players should've been kept in a separate pool for while. Blizzard can tell if you had an account playing OW1 and could've just kept their same ranking criteria for all of them.
@@zacheryjones6700 oh for me and this is fckin wild when I started back in overwatch 1 i was plat tank when I started I only played the last three seasons before O2 launched. But after three seasons in O2 im a masters tank. For dps i was silver the last season of O1. Now I am d2 and pretty confident on getting masters and support im just hard stuck plat 1.
This is what happens when it's the turn of the Little brother on the Xbox xD probably siblings sharing the PC
3:14 Wanted who? 😂
when ppl troll they tend to randomly do things well just out of habit, which would be especially noticeable in high skill players, I'd assume? Because they are making themselves play bad and to not use their brain, but u'd still notice that the brain is present there. Here it's not really the case, imo.
Higher ranks exist for a reason... to weed out bad players like that. If he was really just bad, he should not be there, and he is boosted
He didn’t pin once as rein too lol
I want to believe it's boosted because it's hilarious to think that whoever boosted the account named it that to make fun of the buyer. But the rein gameplay convinces me it's a troll. You can't be a Rein/Dva that holds W at random times and also a Rein that refuses to ever use pin. Some bronze reins will only hold shield, but NO Rein could resist pinning the Dva or going in at 13:20.
My soul: 😢
when i finally got to dia as moira 1 trick, shit didn't change i still get tank diving balls deep doing 1v5 and blaming us the support for not going and dying with him...... , but the queue times are better
I know this sounds crazy but maybe diving with the tank is the best thing to do. Even if it's objectively wrong to be diving, you should still go with your tank to give yourself a fighting chance at winning. It's a lot better than playing 4v5 at least.
1 person doing something dumb is throwing but 5 people doing something dumb is a strategy.
@@lifted71blazer Bold of you to think you can get 5 people to do something dumb in a cohesive way and not just have your entire team take a trip to Narnia in 5 different directions.
@@lifted71blazeryeah, that or the rest of the team is playing too passive. Some players see aggressiveness and making space as feeding because they play too safe. Of course the tank could just be playing really dumb and actually be feeding, but more often then not it’s the supports that are playing too safe or not adapting their playstyle to enable the aggressive tank on their team.
@@lifted71blazer you probably have a point , me and my team do speedy rein with pocket moira, it's fun but it's not "better" to do dumb thing like our rein dive behind their backline where he get melted before we can even reach him vs staying with us and using lucio speed boost to make space while our dps gun stuff down from space and support and tank go close combat
and also playing "too passive" isn't really a bad thing, let's say you have good ash/widow pocketing her and letting her do the work while other team hold a long angel is the best option
it really depends if you are attacking or defending (or push) and your whole team comp, but rein using his charge to get 1 or no kill and be behind their backline is dumb, unless we burn some utilities/ult he's gone lol
@@firetrap6706 playing too passive IS a bad thing and often leads to you losing map control. Map control is extremely important and can decide momentum of entire games.
Disregard this if you are plat or below, you probably still working on basic mechanics and positioning and things like map control are too lofty of concepts
Can we talk about how The genji also threw. No way they weren't teamed up
What about Workshop Wednesday(permanently) and total mayham Thursday(even though it is available every other day you could record it near Thursday and post it on Thursday) And something on Friday like TikTok Friday or as some other people suggested spectate Friday.
I'm gold and I do goofy stuff alot, that guy was probably on a boosted account and trolling out of tank diff spite. I saw nothing but bad decisions on his part
Meanwhile this dude is in GM lobbies and me and my buddy are lifetime bronze. Not that I'd ever want to play in GM, I'm nowhere near that skill level.
This guy is just paper 5
if theyre not soft throwing/trolling they are 100% boosted its a report either way
Man I may be low diamond, but this guy makes me look like LeBron out here.
Something happened to matchmaking! I have stopped queuing for comp because I am getting self admitting boosted accounts and low gold players in my DIAMOND 2 lobbies! Without fail 8 losses in a row. I'm terrified to play any more comp...
Taking a break is a good idea
Bro you are too worried about your rank... if you are good your rank will even out and you'll stay in diamond if its deserved. If you are terrified to keep playing, it tells me diamond 2 is one of your highest peaks and you are too scared to keep playing and push past hardships to climb.
flats is the boosted player with the ironic name tbh
Watching that first point it was hard to tell if it's a gold game or gm
Hey flats you know how you have mystery heroes Tuesday? How about spectatoring bronze Friday so that weighs like a weekly thing? And it doesn't just come every random because we love this build of this. I feel like it would just be nice for everyone if we could get some more but also thanks for the content
Someone’s little brother logged in to his account
I'm not that bad on my worst days
