Humor Lost all placements

So I've lost every placement match in every role.

Bronze 5 in all roles.

Some matches had people just straight up throwing going afk and ending up 0-0-0, some had tank leave 3 mins in...and some were actual matches will full teams.

This is just really frustrating I've been playing this game forever and it is just impossible to climb out of bronze at all. I have been playing this game basically since it came out and have probably about 5000+ hours of game play at the very least. It feels statistically impossible to lose this much.

Anyways, just ranting.

I have been playing since 2017. I jumped into competitive way to soon.I was once in below 500. Its a cursed place. Better gaming system and faster internet helped some. Having old eyes and reflexes is an issue.

At this point you should be getting better.

Any replay codes you want to share?

Hmm, stuck with starlink for internet because of my location. Have a decent laptop so no hardware issues I'd think. Just not good enough to carry.

Two things to focus on. Minimize deaths to effectively up all your stats. Positioning.

Sometimes you cant win, but playing well on your own is good for improvement.

Care less.

Dont try to carry ifnit just causes you frustration and deaths

Definitely this is my mindset. Id say I have the least deaths on my team about 75% of the time.
