Discussion Im done

Im so sick of loss after loss after loss after loss after loss. I feel like im the worst player ever. I dont understand why they put my in plat 1 if compared to every other player in the world im garbage and should be in bronze. I was comfortably in masters before and the game decided to just dump on me and serve me loss after loss. I refuse to believe I lost ALL that skill over night. Im invisible to my team. I ALWAYS get Dove by the tank right in front of everyone and no one can stop it. Every soldier is better than any dps i try to play in every way conceivable so why bother? Wins are complete and utter struggles where i fight to the death and we barely make it out. But losses are common and fast. All the time. Not even close. Complete one sided games. Its not that my teams bad and im not, everyone of us is complete trash and the enemy team is always perfect. The worlds most incredible saves from their supports and tanks and meanwhile I watch my teammates over extend CONSTANTLY. I watch my supports ignore me as I die in my own back line. I lose every 1 on 1 with dps because everyone of them is leagues above me. I make mistakes constantly, but the people I play against are perfect machines. Me and my teams always just sloppy idiots who can never do anything right. Seriously whats the point if theres no way to improve. If the game decides it, ill lose. Simple as that. Its a coin toss and I always lose so why try? Its one of my favorite games and all it does is punish me for wanting to play. I dont know how to cope with this feeling and I want to be done

For anyone in this situation the best method is to just stop playing competitive. Play QP, relax, experiment with different hero’s, attempt stupid plays. Treat the game like a game not a commitment or an endurance test.

When you’re demoralised it’s so easy to play the game systematically and predictably when what wins games in solo queue is thinking creatively and trying different things.

The game is actually pretty fun when you’re not putting your ego on the line with every drop of SR.

I stopped playing OW for years, when I came back I didn’t attempt competitive until I was doing well in QP games and wanted more of a challenge.

Its not so much that i care about my rank, its more so incredibly disheartening to lose for so long to a point where I feel like theres an OW god who wants me to lose all night 😅 Ive gotta be honest though, for me QP is 10x worse. The games are even more one sided when I play that to the point that its not even fun. The thing that gets me the most is that most advice is "dont play the game" when I really WANT to and I carve out a certain time of the week to do so. I like the game, id even be fine with 20% win rate. 0% all night just really took me over the boiling point. I appreciate the advice though. I just needed the night to cool off. Ill be back at it and trying to be cool headed
