After playing for a couple of weeks mostly with randoms. Its clear communication is key, being able to line up attacks and coordinate with other people on what character and ability to use when had been a massive help and made life a ton easier and given me more of an open view to see the battle field and give better planing. With this I made huge progress as I have finally hit my goal and ranked up to plat in one of the selective roles while going way above that in free select. I also tried playing with 2 of my friends with one of them being very new and stopped playing a while ago while the other one knows the game and plays competitive a lot.

After weeks of constant trying I've hit a stopping point. For my Damage characters I've been unable to move for a bit while for my tank and healer I've been moving and going up for the most part. Having seen this I've Decided to take a more healer and tank approach to ranking up again rather than focusing damage. As for communication I have tried communicating with my teammates and calling out what they did wrong and can change. Sometimes this would work and my teammates would change their straggles leading us to a win. While other times i would end up getting called certain racially rude words that I can not say. This tells me text chat Isn't gonna work so ill end to join voice chat to help my teammates fix their problems and mine. In all the games I do good in I make sure to focus on protecting my team and keeping organisation.
Until recently, my ranking has been on a steady decline, but currently I have found a way to not overstep when playing. If I play too much and end up losing 2 games in a row, it's time to get off and try again later, or I will most likely end up with the same team and go on a losing streak. I have around 2100 SR as of the 16th, and I'm constantly trying to increase it. I have found a way to also get better scores with tanks. Considering my random teammates who play shield characters don't actually protect the team, I have decided to do it myself and so far have succeeded. Having a way to get into good positions and protect my whole team has been at the top of my list every game, and I have succeeded many times. This has a drawback, as recently my DPS has started to fall off, and with the huge Q time it really isn't worth it to play.
For week 3, I did something a little different. I decided to test out a couple of new characters to try to widen what I could actually play without letting my team down. The first couple of characters I tried to use were Orisa and Wrecking Ball. For Orisa, it was pretty simple to just provide a barrier for my team to protect them while also being a bullet sponge to protect my team while our healers helped our team. If given the chance, I was able to use my pull to pull an enemy into a certain spot and let me and my team quickly eliminate them to give us the edge. As for wrecking ball, he was a flanking character. With his quick speed, I was able to get behind the team before they knew it and give covering fire as my team pushed.
For DPS, I tried using Echo and Doomfist. For Echo, it was simple. I fly around, dealing as much damage as I could with the 3 seconds I had in the air using my sticky grenades and tri shooter. For Doom, he's hugely different as he is extremely up close, dealing over 200 damage, enough to 1 shot most characters with a fully charged power fist along with a shotgun to finish off tanks he goes after. He's one of the most unique characters, as if you can get really good with him, you can decimate an enemy team with ease. His main drawback is that the abilities he uses to deal extra damage to enemies are also the abilities that help him escape a failing battle, and if you get trapped in a battle you can't win with no remaining abilities, which can happen often with his slow shotgun reload, you are basically done for and will be sent back to spawn. This was probably one of the most interesting training weeks, as I had a ton of fun trying to find counters and ways to easily escape situations with characters I don't often use. Rank reset has happened as of today March 2nd. My first steps of improvement need to be centered about learning my character. As of now i mostly use Reinhardt and D.V.A for tank, for gunner I like using the characters Reaper and Junkrat, finally for healer I like using the characters Lúcio and Mercy. I will start my games with tank, as that is my favorite class due to having a huge health-pool and the capability to deal decent damage.
After having played a couple rounds I've moved which class I have decided to take for the project, with it now being gunner/DPS due to me seeing what type of character i'm better with using, as i noticed I love rushing in to deal massive damage while at the cost of a low health at only 200 compared to the 400-600 health a tank would have. |
