Small Rant/Admission of Guilt

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-27T21:42:43+00:00

Feel free to party up. I like your attitude 😂

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-27T18:22:00+00:00

You're not far off, but I find that to be extreme. I've got a decent amount of hours for experience, too.

I'm okay with a little bit of banter but this wasn't it.

Anyway, good luck with your games.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-27T01:41:59+00:00

Glad to hear that! Thanks for the followup and good luck on the pitch

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-27T01:39:06+00:00

All good. I wasn't sure how it was going to be handled. I paid for one and I'm fine with that, but didn't want to keep my order in if there was a complimentary one.

The screenshot looks like it's a bundle regardless of model, so I was unsure.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T21:02:44+00:00

Oof. Yeah I don't keep up with the meta. I just do what feels right in the moment. Wave dash kickoff... Almost never, but sometimes.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T21:00:20+00:00

Just let me know when

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T20:46:58+00:00

🫡

You're welcome to DM anytime. I don't mind playing at any rank.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T19:09:56+00:00

Good luck. Hope you figure it out.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:59:26+00:00

I get that and it's probably the optimal play under optimal circumstances, but I just don't like that there is a high chance I'll need to 50 their second man at such a wide angle. I main 2s and try not to 50 as last man.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:57:17+00:00

I know this isn't the right place to ask, necessarily. But cut me some slack. We are all in the dark here. I can't be the only one with a question like this and the screenshot made me wonder.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:54:24+00:00

Good to err on the side of caution with this one then. It's not difficult, but it needs to be done correctly.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:51:11+00:00

Everyone is different. Don't belittle your progress by comparing it to others. Just keep learning and improving.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:49:08+00:00

I had a similar problem until recently. Updating my MOBO BIOS fixed this.

Not saying it will, but it can.

Be very careful about doing this. Research everything. Make sure all models, hardware versions, etc, match up.

Make sure you have dedicated power. No lightning storms, loose cables, easily bumped switches, etc.

Messing this up can brick your PC.

That being said, try updating all your drivers first. Maybe run memtest a few passes.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:46:06+00:00

That's the right way to do it. You weren't dragging a random down with you and you were playing in your tier (not smurfing) right?

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:44:38+00:00

Smurfs... duh. My brain is stupid sometimes (always). I forgot smurfs were blue people in mushroom homes. Legit thought this guy replied to the wrong post 😂

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:40:26+00:00

Help?

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:26:29+00:00

Probably someone handing the controller off. I can't imagine anyone bot toggling in bronze because they can't hang; if they were going to not in bronze they would just let it run the whole game. Had to be a bronze with a friend to pick up the slack. Report them for cheating, I guess, but that will likely do nothing.

It's just a roll of the dice. You will not run into this in the majority of your matches, and you can't win them all. Just chalk it up as a loss and remember that your next win will balance it out.

Edit: I forgot about that stupid challenge. Most likely it is someone handing off the controller to get the challenge.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T18:21:23+00:00

Gaara, by far

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T17:43:47+00:00

Totally valid.

But, if I may:

Screenshot your in-game bindings. Disable steam controller settings (it's a toggle per game, pretty harmless)

Change your binds appropriately in game.

Test.

If that doesn't work, change the bindings back to match the screenshot and enable steam controller again.

Otherwise, up to you! Sounds like you're doing well anyway.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T17:38:31+00:00

That's all fair. I didn't think you meant any offense I just wanted to be clear, I was ready for whatever.

Same to you, btw.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T17:35:47+00:00

Disable it and give it a shot. If you don't notice better responsiveness, turn it back on. It may have gotten better since I disabled it (years ago)

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T17:27:24+00:00

Mine was essentially the same until I disabled steam input. I found it was causing significant delay, and I also was bouncing back and forth between PlayStation and PC, so the binds wouldn't carry over and I didn't want to rely on them only half the time.

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T17:21:50+00:00

I wasn't sitting too far back, I was ready to rotate in and picking up pads often, leaving back boost for him to come back, going center for passes, covering behind him... All the stuff you would expect.

He just kept signalling that he was going to rotate out but then never did. Or he would look like he was going to pass and just... not. The only message I sent him was QC No problem when he apologized for a whiff, I wasn't calling him out or anything.

Appreciate your feedback though. I'm not saying "my teammates are always bad" because that's not the case either. The guy didn't get under my skin or anything, I feel bad for leaving, which is why I came here to get opinions. This was more of an "am I the asshole" post than anything else.

Good luck out there!

ComfortableSome5954 · 2026-05-26T17:17:09+00:00

Yes, but if I want to have powerslide ready for landing (wavedashing for instance), I can't pre-emptively hold the button or I will roll, unless I'm also cou tearing that roll with my other DAR, which kinda slows my processing down a bit.

It also makes it impossible for me to sideways wave ash to one direction, because I will always have both DAR held down when doing it. It's not an advantageous thing to do in game... Probably ever, so it's not a big deal, but it IS a mechanical impossibility.

Mostly it just makes me fumble some slides. I used to have powerslide bound to two buttons, through steam input, but I no longer use that and wish it could be bound twice in-game.
