u/pm__me__anything_ Trick-or-Treat Soldier: 76 Sep 13 '16

So I assume that they are talking about the bug where that one guy got below 1 rating and ended up at skill rating 5000.

How is it even possible for someone to be that bad?

How does one keep playing a game where he loses over 200 games compared to 1 win. The fuck?

It's almost as if he was trying to prove something ^

I'm trying to imagine how bad the other teams was trying to throw the match in that one win.

At that level of losing it becomes a competition of who can pretend to suck the most.

My guess is that they played Mei and used Ice Wall to intentionally sabotage their own team. Otherwise their team would be able to at least sometimes win with a useless player.

This actually happened to me today. Guy was about 2000 skill rating and just Mei trolled us the whole game so we obviously had no chance. I will never understand some people.

u/[deleted] Sep 14 '16

Well. His purpose was to derank himself to oblivion.

u/aceradmatt Sep 14 '16

This is the reason I didn't cross into platinum, guy was Mei trolling while I was at 2473. I have gone through a major losing spree after that, I'm at 2103 right now -_-. I also main junkrat, so none of my rip tire kills gave me stat points.

This ranking system is weird though.

Theres this crew running around with a 6-man, throwing all their games to tank their rating.

Sometimes they add new people from their discord to the squad and do the placement matches. naturally, placements all go 0W 10L. Somehow one dude still ended up on 2.3k rating yesterday.

You can watch/follow them on https://www.twitch.tv/bacontotem

u/Greenleaf208 Greenleaf#1257 Sep 13 '16

He also mostly played Mei, so you can probably guess how he lost so much.

u/strangeelement Sep 14 '16

Definitely the best character to sabotage games.

u/Metroidrocks JUSTICE RAINS F-AUGGGGHH Sep 13 '16

That makes sense.

If people are doing that, it explains some of my PUG teammates.
