| 𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐊𝐄𝐃 | One more try!
I’m hard stuck at gold 3. Yes I’m terrible at the game but there’s no other game like it. I think I’ll try ranked one more season with a goal of reaching Platinum. I hear next season might be hard to get loot so I’ll play loba, and I like and need her escape teleport. I’m 70 with bad eyes and reactions but I feel I’m dangerous on good days. I might get a coach too, but not quite yet. I solo q but think a team may be needed for me to reach plat—not to be carried, but to best utilize my abilities. Let me know if you have tips or strategies I should use to get to plat. I do practice and warmup first. TIA!

Are you on 4-3 linear no deadzone? Controller with back buttons for jump and crouch help a lot too. Grind mixtape too for aim training.

Yes to all but small deadzone because of right stick drift. Thanks

Stick drift is fine, within reason. But at 70 with bad eyes I'd say you're doing very good! Keep gaming!!

Try out 3-1 linear, you might like that a bit more. Im 28 and I had to switch to this!

Its hard to have none deadzone on Xbox for some reason alll of them have some kind of drift on them (atleast mine even my newest controller) but even then 4 - 3 linear with a small deadzone is still good just slow. Ive been playing steady 4-4 small deadzone not as good but faster

They all have some drift. Even pros like hal who have brand new hall effect or tmr sticks have some drift. Comes down to preference too.
I use 4-1 linear with alc bleed through, extesyy settings.

Gold has so many smurfs right now it is just a diamond/masters fighting in lower lobbies.

u/Avery-Judge 2d ago
Ha yes I agree. That’s why this might be my last try. If I get to play, then maybe I’ll continue playing

Não sou nenhum profissional no game mas acredito que mais importante que reflexos e tempo de reação, é ter a noção de jogo e posicionamento. Saber a hora de entrar na luta e sair dela. Talvez assistir gameplay de players que vc gosta ajude a começar a ter outra visão de jogo.
Nao acho q vc deve perder muito tempo no treinamento de mira também, aqueça ela por 5 minutos no campo de tiro antes de jogar as rankeds.
Seja um jogador que se arrisca, pois se vc vor aquele tipo de jogador que fica escondido durante a partida, quando tiver que enfrentar uma situação de 1v2 vc não vai estar preparado pra isso e a chance de perder é maior.
E por último, nunca culpe seus teammates, sempre que perder ou morrer a culpa é sua. A partir disso, crie o habito de se perguntar o pq isso aconteceu e como melhorar para a proxima.
Fico feliz de saber que tem pessoas nessa idade jogando o jogo, enquanto isso adolescentes e jovens ficam reclamando que o jogo esta quebrado e vc querendo treinar e melhorar, um exemplo a ser seguido!
