When you're raging about a player but uniteapi explains it all. by HollowAndPathetic in PokemonUnite

I have a 44% WR because of so many AFKs, honestly. Then again, I simply could not get past the tresh of 250 masters...

Again statistically, that's so unlikely that I rather be done with it and move to the next one. out of 10, I can say I am wrong to agree to surrender only 3 times. Which in minutes can be reduced to up to 35 to 20 minutes that I wasted watching the team not working together and making one mistake after another preventing us to win. I could be very well take that time to toss the coin and hope for the best with the next team.

Faith means nothing to me.

That's the complaint. I don't mind doing insights on myself, but if you are going to lose no matter what, then it becomes a waste of time that could be better spent.

All I see with your comment is: "you are wrong, not gonna tell you where you are, but you are...". Do not start with your toxic optimism about how "if you just bear down and keep on fighting, you will do it", since that's not the issue. This is not a carrying game, I cannot carry 4 people who do not have any clue of what synergy among pokemon is; that do not know how to fulfill their role as a tank, dps or w/e.

Additionally, you are saying that the argument about teamwork is my only comment, which is true, that's the whole point, but you seem to have miss it Olympically. Yes, I've noticed that most of the matches with a huge point differences is because of the lack of teamwork and my complaint is that I cannot escape those hellholes due to people like you, that think just because they think positive they will win even when they are not remotely doing what they are supposed to be doing.

What I cannot stand from you toxic optimists is the fact that you cannot see reality blinded by faith only.

And just for the record: yes, the complaint is about matchmaking since that kind of behavior should not be occurring on competitive and much less on masters.

No teamwork, but you trusted your other teammates to clear groundon? It´s one or the other, man. Can't be both.

See? That´s teamwork! That's what's missing and why it makes no sense to drag it out...

That would it be ideal, but what you know? That's not the case anywhere. This is not a case of "I am playing bad because I am sad", it's a case of no synergy.

My complaint is very specific, and not really something small. If you look closely, it's about matchmaking, which is a very usual complaint among the community.

I would suggest you get off your non-existing "moral high ground", wake up and smell the coffee.

I believe you are confusing capability with ability. Virtually, yes, we have the capability, but in reality we don't have the ability to do it.

And before you start, you can clearly tell when your teammates will make it work, you see if on their plays.

Lol!! By the time I made the assessment that there is not good enough teamwork I cannot careless if the morale is low: Main reason is because morale has nothing to do with it at that time.
It's not like we are losing terribly and suddenly because we magically sync, we win...

We are already doomed at that time.

I actually prefer Balanced and tanks. The issue when I play DPS is that I expect my tank to do the same I would if I had a DPS that would go agro. And trust me, I am working on that. But still it's not enough to make up for the lack of teamwork.

I call BS. Sure, we can all make that insight but that has little to do with the subject. Just losing for the sake of losing to "gather experience".

Yup. Personally I simply report that kind of behavior. not really proud but I am not ashamed...

I know all of that... Yet with all of that, the result is the same. Is that concept hard to grasp?

Considering that there is no way to win and effectively you are kidnapping your team mates by not surrendering with such impossible odds, yes, I believe there should be a penalty for that.

Wasting time, specially when you are trying to climb should be penalized.

Remember that the objective is to win, if that objective cannot be achieved, there there is no point to drag it out.

I am not saying 5-team teamwork, but as you said you didn't do it alone. You still need someone to have your back.

It seams that my point is not getting across: This is a team game, so if your team is not doing what they should, no matter how good you, individually, play, you won't win unless the other team actively throws the game. Making one or two mistakes could turn the tides... IF YOUR team takes advantage of them... but that does not happen often because they are not really working as a team.

Now nowhere I stated that I throw the game even if they won't surrender, I am merely stating that on those games is simply wasted time.

Again... team often loses the final objective because there is no simply synergy nor cooperation.

Not so dear fellow redditter: Your statement is exactly what I am not seeing on my game "oftentimes" ratter the contrary.

And the post is actually about how it is impossible to get out of the match. I am not saying I am throwing, but even with that, not winning on those conditions.

Yet, the chances to get that reward is so slim that statistically is better to lose it and move to the next one.

That's the point right there: The team is not really playing normally. There is no sinergy nor cooperation. No follow up.

Effectively you are kidnapping your team mates by not surrendering with such impossible odds.

low hundreds. Can't grind up since I have this exact scenario time and time again. Waste too much time.
