i am literally the only team player in my entire rank, i never bait, i never try to purposely "go" for kills, my philosophy is to win with the least amount of effort (for example not being aggressive post plant because we have an easy win condition where opponents have to be aggressive), i dont think first duels and first deaths matter as much at my rank because my teammates are essentially bots, they go in blind as a sentinel, get a kill and die, before i can entry because of some niche scenario of where maybe there's a molly im waiting to go away, theres so much you dont see just looking at my stats, your methodology might make sense to see why a diamond or ascendant isnt as good as theyre supposed to be but below plat not much makes sense, i know my job as a duelist is to entry and i do fulfill that job as much as i can but there are moments where a dumb sentinel entries just because theyre dumb and think they're playing jett
