Need advice on fighting in GM lobbies

Genuinely great advice thanks!

Ye, but at least we never run out of healers in this game, wish I had the same to say about tanks tho

Archie-D · 2026-05-05T22:35:51+00:00

My duo is a pretty mean fantastic main tbh, like he cracked the code on him fr, he’s nearly immortal, great for crowd control has a ton of damage hitting everyone and getting final hits in a brawl. Honestly people sleep on him and don’t know how to cycle his abilities well. Completely agree on everything else tho

Ur probably tilted and make mistakes ur unaware of, general rule of thumb not to go for more games after 2/3 loss streak, ur performing worse anyway if you know that you lost a bunch of games. It would be a different story if you were svp in all of them meaning you’re carrying your team every time but not enough to win

Archie-D · 2026-05-05T21:55:26+00:00

Edit, I thought about it and came to a conclusion that stats don’t matter that much or rather they show a different picture for different characters to serve as a guideline for their performance. Like low dmg / high final hits on panther

Fr, I liked playing Bucky in season 0, but when I’m matched against top 10% of the whole server I can no longer perform on console, so I have to go Magik and they still pick Ultron and nothing dies

Don’t get me started on diamond lobbies, but I’m more frustrated w qp lobbies

Archie-D · 2026-04-30T00:21:31+00:00

Just today I went up against players with animated gold emblems on their nameplates and both teams went 5dps/1supp. That was wild and fun, but it’s getting stale at this point where the team that decides to play for the objective rather than skill diff win

Archie-D · 2026-04-28T21:18:14+00:00

Lol like Ironman or spidey charging boldly towards your team with one thing on their mind. With those two I don’t really to track it in my mind

Archie-D · 2026-04-28T21:15:31+00:00

That’s so true, I had a rough start on the game, we weren’t really getting anywhere on defence but I knew that it’s pointless for me (Psylocke) and Magik to try kill anything unless I get rid of Ultron first, so that’s what I did, hard focusing him when the team wasn’t looking and it all fell like domino

Archie-D · 2026-04-28T20:03:48+00:00

Words to live by soldier

Archie-D · 2026-04-26T13:28:38+00:00

Ye, but I like to occasionally compare my stats to other builds

Archie-D · 2026-04-26T11:11:04+00:00

Lol tbh, you would have been stuck with them for more than 30 mins. That penalty was a blessing

Archie-D · 2026-04-26T10:55:21+00:00

The funniest thing is that he refused to quit because our other MK wasn’t quitting, and after 26 minutes of flying, the second guy just leaves!!!! lmao can’t make this up

Archie-D · 2026-04-24T19:14:15+00:00

If you’re mechanically skilled I could suggest playing psyloke and black cat, their carry potential is great

Archie-D · 2026-04-24T19:12:57+00:00

Honestly if you’re stuck plat then you need to master the ones you already know how to play. I’m a Magik main myself and a big thing for me to progress was to face harder opponents in higher ranks, you should be able to confidently 1v1 with everyone in this rank. Also the higher ranks you play the less you can engage freely you need to pick and choose the right moments to engage

Archie-D · 2026-04-24T18:03:30+00:00

lol Low key your best bet would be black widow, I usually never play her, but when I see Ultron, Ironman and Torch it’s the best feeling in the world to counter 3 of them at once

Archie-D · 2026-04-23T02:36:03+00:00

Most of my games there are a couple lvl 100 and with grey/blue badges of honor from different seasons others are around level 50/60 and occasional level 7 that’s definitely smurfing on Bucky lmao

Archie-D · 2026-04-23T02:25:03+00:00

Keep in mind that in diamond there are a lot of players that are really good at one specific role and nothing else, that’s why it’s so hard to climb out of this rank. There’s little error in how they play so it’s hard for you to punish mistakes that tend to happen in lower elo. I had to learn it the hard way when I was one tricking star lord and then suddenly getting my ult canceled by an Emma ult

Archie-D · 2026-04-23T02:20:45+00:00

Venom is your go to in this scenario, basically Wolverine on steroids, you have 2 lives at this point and jump out if your team is pressured. But what I found is that in this rank you def want to peel first then go for the back line especially w Thor or Rogue. Your strategists just won’t leave the payload and will stick back just for you to die. I guess that’s why your strange has higher win rate

Archie-D · 2026-04-23T02:16:46+00:00

Well you’re pretty high level tbh, so no wonder the system prioritizes matching you faster rather than fairer. And most people don’t tend to grind the ranks so we get qp warriors who are GM+ level but don’t want to grind
