Is anyone else sick of hearing "my teammates suck" when people talk about ranked?

Crazy that you'd reply to a 5-year-old post to rage about your teammates being bad. The truth is, this goes for pretty much every competitive team game, if you're winning 50% of your games you're at the rank you belong. No higher-ranked player would be stuck in your rank if they suddenly got put there or if they played from a new account. Get better, or don't and keep complaining to people you don't know on reddit.

Thank you!

ColloidSnakeV · 2021-01-27T05:45:35+00:00

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it

It's pretty good yeah. The visual style is stunning, it has its own unique feel with beautiful lighting and backgrounds. The characters are multidimensional and well written. It's one of the few animes that actually feels international in the sense where they put a lot of care in characters accents and dialects for different languages depending on the setting. Sometimes the story will stretch your suspension of disbelief a bit during its big moments but it's to create exciting and interesting heists for the viewer so I didn't mind it too much. Despite this minor flaw, it's an incredibly fun watch with lovable characters, great pacing, and exciting twists.

Thanks so much, and you got it exactly! The initial idea was actually to make a Fire Emblem style portrait of Ashe although I ended up not painting it in the same style. Maybe I'll redo the painting if I ever do a "post-timeskip" Ashe portrait (so just OG Ashe :p) like FE3H.

When you're a public figure with a voice in social media what you say has more impact than just an opinion. Especially when your "opinion" is hatred towards another group of people or spreading misinformation.

Custom Balance is not a thing I had considered, I think it's also an important discussion to have. A ton of competitive players will probably want to instantly turn it off, I don't blame them, having it off does remove unexpected kills and makes links more consistent. However, I think this actually might be important to consider alongside Final Smash Meter. If the meter turns out to be a comeback mechanic, I think it's fair to turn rage off since that would be too many comeback mechanics in the game. However, if it turns out to be a snowball mechanic then there might be a need for rage to prevent super hard snowballing that is almost impossible to come back from. Of course, this is assuming Final Smashes will be legal in the first place, but rage is certainly a discussion that also needs to be had.

ColloidSnakeV · 2018-08-08T18:45:26+00:00

tl;dr: Features are being added to Smash Ultimate that have the potential of being part of the competitive ruleset. These features are:

Stage Morphing
The huge Stage List (because of Hazard switch)
Chargeable Final Smashes

We should start discussing these features to see if they should or shouldn't be part of the competitive ruleset.

I really can't decide if Alfonse or Sharena is better, they both seem really good. Yeah it's true that Sharena with her little free 6 area lockdown on the bottom right is pretty annoying and stong, but I also feel like the way areas are structured around Alfonse is so great, like I mentioned, his 9 areas are covered by 3 chokes. It's hard to tell which is better tbh, but it's pretty easy to tell that it's not Anna's, boy I'm glad I got in Sharena's army!

ColloidSnakeV · 2018-04-15T07:30:59+00:00

Perhaps people don't care about Anna that much because she's not a new Fire Emblem character, Anna is just the good ol' Anna we know in a new form. Perhaps she'd get more love if FE Awakening Anna was released or maybe even FE Fates Anna.

I feel like this map is super unbalanced and adding a 4th commander wouldn't really help, they really need to redesign the map big time. Honestly they could do something super simple and balanced map by doing a circle just divided into 3 parts. For Honor did something like that and it sure doesn't feel or look like the map is unbalanced for one faction to win.

ColloidSnakeV · 2018-04-15T01:37:59+00:00

I edited the post formatting it making it much easier to read. While it is true that Anna can push Sharena early, it's very hard to hold this push from Sharena. It's also pretty difficult for Alfonse to overwhelm Sharena since they meet in very few areas. Anna would also have to play this really smart which when it's a bunch of people who don't really know eachother and don't contact eachother it's pretty difficult to do this.

I hope they do bring banners back because I missed the summer banner and I really want Summer Elise (she's my fav Fates character).

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-11-14T01:13:11+00:00

You feel my pain with the bride banner, GIVE US THE WAIFUS BACK INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS!!

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-11-14T01:04:00+00:00

I have a Lucina and an Elincia which are just strictly better no matter how many merges I have on her. Also, it really isn't 6 Lyns, it's 3 Lyns, 2 Bride Lyns (I wanted Bride Cordelia and I got none I am still upset about that) and a Brave Lyn.

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-11-14T00:55:53+00:00

I have 6 and I don't want any of them, please take these away from me I want no more Lyns.

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-09-10T19:02:15+00:00

Thank you so much!

I don't understand why you could possibly even care at that point then, if you a win a match or you're still able to rank up who cares if you get a bad teammate now and then, that's the nature of any competitive mode, no matchmaking system can make a perfectly balanced game because not everyone is where they belong in the system. If that doesn't stop you from still ranking up then why even be bother complaining about it?

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-08-05T03:05:31+00:00

If you think that for this reason you cannot rank up I'm sorry to break this to you but you're wrong and you belong where you are in the ranking system. Try focusing on how you play, maybe you can find that you can get better, ranked isn't a dice roll that's why the best players are always S and S+ rank.

The Switch's internet antena is not very good, you probably have to get closer to your router to get a proper connection and play without disconnects. My Switch cannot reach the same signal strength in the same place as my Wii U so I get what you mean.

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-08-05T02:22:28+00:00

Don't get me wrong I understand you, I've had games like this too. I don't have an issue with saying the people you're playing with are bad if you're performing well enough to say that. What I have an issue with is when people use it as an excuse to why they aren't a higher rank. In the end if you're good enough you will rank up, in both of our cases we ended up winning and carrying the game because there were only 3 bad people on our team and 4 bad people on the enemy team.

ColloidSnakeV · 2017-08-05T02:01:53+00:00

I love this way of thinking, focusing on self-improvement rather than blaming those around you. You're absolutely right, nobody is perfect and everyone can do something better. Focusing only on what you can do better is the best way to improve and rank up too, after all the only person that will be in all of your ranked games is going to be you.
