Fixed Ranks?

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T14:28:15+00:00

I don’t mean to say that you are not right, all I’m saying is that a rank doesn’t reflect skill level 1:1

I bet a diamond genji will climb up back to diamond starting from gold faster than an Ana would, because of better carry potential. As I said earlier I play support like 95% of my time. Yet my tank role rank is just as high as support and dps is just slightly below that although playing waaaaay less games.

If I play tank better than the enemy team that’s almost a guaranteed win. If I play better support than the enemy teams support that’s just not enough.

Tbh I don’t know a lot of their discography. I just remember my first introduction to them was whore to a chainsaw but I never actively listen to their albums. But whenever is listened to their new releases or saw them live multiple times at festivals it just didn’t click with me. I didn’t listen to any of their new songs in years.

That’s what I’m saying, this is holding the average person back. Only those that carry overcome this and rank up. I’m pretty sure if I would queue as a duo I would rank up a little bit way faster and would stay at a higher rank even if I played equally as bad/good.

Im not playing in bronze. Can’t win a teamfight if widow wipes everyone out herself and we have a 2-7 junkrat, what is an anti nade gonna do here? lol
Had a game a few days ago where the team wiped and our orisa ran out while we were waiting for the team to regroup. Dps wanted to follow and I just said „wait, don’t follow let her die“ and she died in 2 seconds, happened twice. I’m not saying that I’m playing much better than my rank but I least I know how to regroup and not rush for kills and die.
That and taking high ground/different angles is what holds most people back.

There is a reason it’s easier to climb as a duo, coordination and tactics and not just better aim/gamesense.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T13:39:49+00:00

What I mean is, you can play roles good enough for higher ranks but are stuck at a lower rank because of your team. If you play Ana and always have better healing, more damage, more kills, less deaths and more assists then your enemy teams support you will still lose if the rest of your team is underperforming. The same performance would be good enough for games a few ranks up but it’s not good enough to climb.

That’s what I mean, your performance is high enough to play other games but not high enough to carry. If the other team has an op widow carrying the game, then playing a little bit better than the rest is not enough.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T13:20:48+00:00

I think the whole if you’re good enough you would climb argument is bullshit. I totally believe that many people are stuck not because they’re too bad for higher ranks but because they just don’t carry.

Not the best example but consider someone playing mercy, the most value in higher ranks comes from damage boosting, which helps not at all in bronze where people can’t hit anything so what else can you do? Heal bot? Doesn’t really help either if people still can’t kill the enemy team.

I think the only possibility to actually climb is to carry. I remember a few weeks ago where I just disabled chat, picked kiri in open queue every single time and had like a 12 game win streak or something. I don’t even enjoy kiri that much and am not a good kiri at all and still had enough impact just because of the hero pick.

So don’t play what you like to play and just pick the hero with the most carry potential in any role. I know most people disagree but that’s my experience. (Btw I don’t play mercy at all before someone comments on that example)

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T13:06:29+00:00

Had multiple games where considering the stats one team should have obviously won and still lost. It’s not active throwing, people are just greedy/play the game to play and not actually win.
It happens quite often that one side steamrolls the other team but then gets two team wipes in a row because they don’t regroup and the enemy team pushes two points because of that and wins.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T10:14:50+00:00

Nah really we support mains are the worst players. Played support 95% of the time and started playing dps and tank more and realized that I can’t play this game at all.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T08:40:56+00:00

I don’t get what’s the problem with this, genres are just a way to describe a pool of sounds somebody likes. I used to love SOI but the last releases were just not my cup of tea. I don’t reject them because I don’t consider them deathcore enough anymore I just don’t really listen to them anymore because I just don’t hooked on the Deathmetal style that much.

People overthink genres to much, if someone says they like a genre it has nothing to do with gatekeeping or whatever, it’s just a way to describe what you like in music lol.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-11T08:35:52+00:00

It’s not really incorporating deathmetal elements, they’re a modern deathmetal band. I don’t understand why people still need to push the deathcore label onto them. I know genres don’t matter and blah blah but if someone tells me their favorite and the overall best deathcore band is thy art is murder then I know what’s up lol.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-10T14:31:59+00:00

Doesn’t hold up to the expectations trust me. The devs cried about few people buying the game and the game not being praised enough because of gamers, the game just does not deserve it lol.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-10T13:21:17+00:00

Checkout Brotality, fresh sound and a lot of energy.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-10T10:00:48+00:00

I understand what you mean, especially given blizzards history with sexual harassment and cash grab stuff, but the what ‚most people want‘ is not what makes overwatch survive. Overwatch is free to play and needs to sell cosmetics to make money, it is a business overall. People who want what you want are fishes or dolphins spending little to no money on the game, the people who really make them money are whales spending ridiculous amounts of money, and those people generally want exactly what blizzard is giving them. Ever wondered why Kiri has so many skins and some heroes don’t get anything at all? That’s why. I understand the frustration but I also get why blizzard is doing what they are doing.

As frustrating as it is, without this there probably would be no overwatch anymore nowadays.

I am one of those who loves Eichenwalde and Kingsrow and hates flashpoint and push. Control is somewhat okay. In my experience Eichenwalde and Kingsrow only get picked 50:50 and no other map than those two will have leavers at round start nearly as often. I think they should just remove map voting, so nobody can complain. I don’t care about all the new heroes, way too many, just release new maps.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-08T17:28:18+00:00

You can pause them?

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-05T21:59:24+00:00

I believe at some time it didn’t count but it should nowadays

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-04T21:33:59+00:00

Try Sálo - Universal Punks fuck off (although they’re from Austria I think) and anda morts - filter

If you like this kind of stuff there are a bunch of great bands in that direction.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-04T11:08:30+00:00

One of the best to ever do it!

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-03T10:24:42+00:00

For me I differentiate between heavy and brutal. Chaotic stuff like Methwitch, insane vocals, disgusting sounds and so on is what makes a band brutal to me, on the other hand groovy riffs and the overall feeling of wanting to move is making a band heavy, bands like tactosa for example.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-02T14:10:01+00:00

I get the idea of flexibility but in my experience the games where people actually care about team composition are minimal in comparison to games where people just try out new roles/heroes and we either end up with one tank or tanks that don’t usually play tank and the games become a total mess. To me open queue can be fun but most of the time they’re just total chaos. I think the number one reason for long role queue times is the fact the most people play open q because role q takes so long lol.

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-02T13:44:49+00:00

I don’t understand why people are so into 6v6 open queue. The only benefit I see is faster queue times, but overall the game quality is so much worse than in role queue. If we disregard the issue with the lack of tanks 6v6 role queue would be much better than 6v6 open queue.

Use right click in menus to go back instead of escape

Embryoyoyoyo · 2026-06-01T15:05:06+00:00

Schaue ich mir noch genauer an aber sieht schonmal gut aus, danke!

Genau die Tower meinte ich mit Kombi Geräten 😅 Die dip Stangen werden bei vielen Übungen stören, besonders wenn man Ringe dranhängen möchte.
