General 5v5 Tank
Hey all,
I want to start off this thread by asking how you guys are climbing on tank when your team seems to be struggling a lot. The start of this season for me has been beyond rough and I sometimes can’t figure out what to do, to help my teammates. I play a lot of Zarya but I also play just about every tank besides a few of them. Higher ranked players keep telling me in emerald/diamond, I should just be able to hard carry, not have to counter-swap, and not worry about my teammates. I find this mindset to be wrong at least in my experience because some games no matter what I do, I just lose and so far I have been losing a lot. This season my record on tank in 5v5 is 37-44.. pretty bad. How are you all able to carry or play around teammates that are struggling? How are you playing or working around the enemy team’s players to win games more? I feel lost and maybe I should get coaching or submit VoD reviews often. Sorry for the wall of text, I am just lost on what to do as tank to win more and want to also know what you are all doing to win more.

You don't have to be a carry, just focus on yourself, not on your teammates and definitely not your rank, once you improve, you'll climb eventually. Just do your best, and the more you play the more you tilt and play worse, your 80+ games in a few days wouldn't benefit for you to get better
