As a solo I don't understand why people drop on fragment in ranked. Once you hit gold most of the time you don't live long enough to get your RP back that you spent going in.
For me Loba: Has the ability to loot up quickly - black market giving my team a second chance - by crafting banners mobility - ive survived multiple teams with loba being the only member left on the squad Loba is quickly becoming my main as her kit completely compliments my play style.
I main Wattson and so I usually solo queue as Wattson, but one thing I've noticed is that there is nowhere near enough people picking rotation characters like Valk and Pathfinder. It's always a struggle to get to that God spot because another team had a rotation character along with evac towers and got there before everyone else. Which makes me debate if I should use my defenses to show presence or should we sneak around until we can find a better spot.
That's an interesting thought! Typically, it's better to show a presence. Ratting works if someone is running *right up on you*, but as a Wattson you are so much more useful with your pylon deployed rather than keeping it in your pocket. Hope this helps!
@@ADeliciousMango I know, but I don't want to place my pylon in a bad spot if I can perhaps secure a better one to better rival the other squad with superior positioning. I appreciate the advice tho. Great vid
In my experience I’ll get teammates on rotation legends, and for whatever reason they refuse to actually rotate. I’ll go an entire game and my pathy teammate will make 1 zip line, maybe 2 if im lucky
With the new split coming out, I’ve got two more solo specific ranked guides coming out in the next two weeks! Hopefully you’ll find those useful too! 🙏
@@swagg2tymes404 yea if your team is really bad your kind of screwed, but if you get 1 or two teammates that can play agressive and they play legends like rev your golden. I've had games where I've dropped almost 4ks in ranked and have the least amount of kills because I've just been hitting headshots with sentinel all game then my tm8s clean it up 😂
I once heard gdolpn say he only picked up vantage because she was new, wasn’t meta, and thought it would piss off people to get sniped randomly. Lol I think her kit is fine, but her hit box and movement animation are too clunky
I was tempted to pick Bang! I do think she’s great, but I think she benefits GREATLY from playing with a pre-made squad and organizing smokes/ults, where sometimes her abilities aren’t as impactful in a solo setting. She’s an outstanding legend though obviously!
@@ADeliciousMango i get you but i play only solo or solo que where i CANT relly on my team at all and thats why i think Bang and wraith for example got it all for those situations but i get you
@@ADeliciousMango only becasue they are easy to get out of dodge with for example i would not pic custic personally becasue i think he is easy to get to comfterble with in one spot and a good team can easly eat you if your not very good with him
I must’ve been solo queueing! I always stream my games on Twitch, so you can check there. Everyone I three stack with are friends I know and can vouch for, so if I was playing with cheaters I must’ve been solo
I *intentionally* left off Revenant from this list, as he has no "team utility" other than slaying... did I cook, or am I cooked?

Played solo queue ranked and went from D4 to P2 💀💀 never again
Oof I feel that pain, I lost about 800 RP in Diamond 1 one stream this season, that felt awful 😅 having teammates is definitely the way to go
@@ADeliciousMangomy game crashed three games in row and it gave me abandon penalties each game so I lost 360rp in 3 games😭
Meanwhile you're going against 3 stack preds. I feel this.
Solo queue isn’t bad tbh
Then ur not a diamond player. If u can maintain it solo that’s ur rank.

My girl vantage getting love
She is surprisingly underrated! And I’m not even a big Vantage player, but I gotta give credit where it’s due!
Timely video with the new split! I was trying conduit but might switch it up to loba; since I seem to get idiots for team mates

I just solo q rampart and im almost masters, my tm8s are usually pretty decent now solo q experience isnt that had this season.
Rampart is beasty if played right. She was my first main and the problem I kept having is she has no escape. Loba is awesome for solo q

Sad gibby wasn’t in this, but I understand
It would be fun to put Gibby in this! But unfortunately he just doesn’t quite crack my Top 5
I once heard gdolpn say he only picked up vantage because she was new, wasn’t meta, and thought it would piss off people to get sniped randomly. Lol I think her kit is fine, but her hit box and movement animation are too clunky
pro tip if you want to solo q apex ranked, dont. you're welcome
sage advice tbh
woulda put newcastle in here over fridge like pathy lol but lot of that is due to the fact I'm not good with him
Any advice for solo queueing life?
God saw Adam struggle solo queue, so he made Eve. My advice: find a duo
class response 😂@@ADeliciousMango
Solo queue I went form plat 4 to gold 2 now
full tier list when
Season 21 May have a full one 👀
No more hand gestures?
Bang is the solo q warlord
SHIV is the solo queue warlord, but unfortunately after her nerfs yesterday, Bang definitely is not a good solo pick :(
@@ADeliciousMango yeah it’s sad:(. I’ve played her a bit she’s still good but maybe low A tier now not S
Went from p1 to p3 solo q
Solo queue is so darn tough man, I feel your pain!
I thought rev would’ve been in there🥲
Watson is the GOAT
why solo queue when you could touch grass
Why watch a vid on solo queuing, when you could touch grass
Uhh what's grass.....
In my opinion i think Bangalore and im not a Bang player
I was tempted to pick Bang! I do think she’s great, but I think she benefits GREATLY from playing with a pre-made squad and organizing smokes/ults, where sometimes her abilities aren’t as impactful in a solo setting. She’s an outstanding legend though obviously!

solo ranked is too painful to have a top legend
Bumped into you in ranked, why you playing with cheaters?
I must’ve been solo queueing! I always stream my games on Twitch, so you can check there. Everyone I three stack with are friends I know and can vouch for, so if I was playing with cheaters I must’ve been solo
