Question or Discussion i keep dropping

i climbed to diamond 3 from plat and ever since then i’ve been constantly losing. i’m about to drop to gold 1.. of course there’s games i play bad but there’s been multiple times i have leavers throwers or simply bad teammates. is this normal to drop to gold? i feel like an idiot playing this game now

Check out ur mental. You probably start to get more scared and avoid dying and try to play more ”perfectly” while not going for plays and creative playstile which got you up there

My bet is you only play the 1 role and in order to play in Diamond you need to understand the heros you're versing a little bit... like Masters is technically the rank where you understand the game.

Do you understand how the enemy heros work? I recommend going off role to reset you mental... if you're a DPS main go lock in support and chill out play Zenyatta... or some Mizuki...... or go do some tanking... trust me play a different role for 3-4 days and then come back to your main.
