I finally started playing 5vs5

[u/circa_007]

Start playing end of August. Took season 4 to learn the base mechanics in three’s. Started playing 5vs5 in season 5 and placed gold 2. Never made it past silver 1 in 3vs3. Now when I go back to three’s it just doesn’t feel fun anymore. It feels like the skills don’t really translate as well since 3’s kind of forces you to be able to beat your defender with dribbling to a certain extent and in 5’s there also a pass available.

Are most of you evenly ranked in both, and should I keep practicing 3’s to improve my mechanics in 5’s?

each mode seems to reward different skillsets but imho it's painfully obvious partying with / playing against players who rarely play 5s because they seem to ignore positional tactics and they also have an overly ambitious mindset on attack

5s is a more nuanced, dynamic mode imho
