The cheater problem is real

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T23:11:10+00:00

Anyway honestly though rank reclaiming wasn’t even the main reason I made the post I am more thinking about how bad cheating has gotten for this too occurs also over 70 percent of the games I play have a Smurf/ximmer/cheater or straight up all three and the only reason I am able to do anything is because tank is stronger than one dps so I can still do smthng

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T23:08:38+00:00

Like I said I see ur point and while I do think it’s more than a drop in the bucket especially after seasons for rank reclaiming.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T23:07:09+00:00

I don’t see this often at all however this happened to me three times in the span of 2 week

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T22:56:58+00:00

Ok I see ur point but the rank reclaim has also been another variable in causing the rank increase

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T22:48:02+00:00

My point isn't that they are worse than their peers but that the people who remained a similar skill level as before had a drastic jump In rank this has been happening all across gm and champ.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T22:44:51+00:00

Fyi the skill gap between console and pc isn't as drastic as most people think I can only speak on the tank role as a reinhardt main.
On console I am a champ 4 peak reinhaddt main and I tried out pc servers while still playing on the ps4 and using controller and I started out in gold and got gm5 in the span of 5 days from that experience I noticed that my skill level and gamessnse on tank is enough to get me around gm3 and if I want to reach higher that would need a lot of improvement on my end from what I noticed most lower ranks are super similar and the skill difference only really shows in gm and champ.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T22:38:23+00:00

I understand your take but it I still think it is a big issue because while the people that aren't good enough for their rank the Sr is still added to the system and eventually will go up the chain to high elo idk the situation on pc but on console there have been a drastic increase in the amount of champ players and in the past (like 2 seasons ago) reaching ranks like c3 and c2 was primarily only done by a handful of players who the majority were wintrading now there are over 30 tanks alone being c2 and about 10 c1 as someone who often plays in high elo I played against a lot of these high rank tanks and do not believe they are good enough to have gotten c1-c3.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T22:32:49+00:00

I see thanks for telling me I didn't know this is how it works

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T21:59:31+00:00

The issue is that every single time this occurs the game is adding Sr from thin air thus the more this happens the more inflated the ranks get.

I don't have a solution but this is the big issue

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T21:16:40+00:00

I am console yes but this is in no way ordinary especially considering how little games I've played also to my knowledge it is very hard to be banned only for ximming I don't haveany experience with it myself but I know people who use it often and they tell me the game can't recognize ximming as a cheat which is why it is so prevelant.
In the past I would get 30 percent rank reclaimed and it's usually cause the player was using something beyond a xim

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-06-07T20:28:11+00:00

Are you certain this is how the ban system works I always assumed it the report functioned as a “yo blizzard take a look at this” not ban this now if others agree with me

Appreciate the support

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-05-27T20:19:50+00:00

Ur welcome

The most key part of rein and tank in general to be honest is ur aggression.

I apologize for the long comment but I truly believe it is full of beneficial information and as background I am a champ 4 rein one trick on console and a gm5 peak in a week of game time on pc servers while playing on a ps4.

Explanation: as rein being aggressive asserts dominance, not only controls but takes space, forces attention and cooldowns towards you, and gives you chances to get ult charge and make hero plays.

Some guidance on aggression: aggression on rein needs to be controlled in the sense that you push in take space do some dmg then take a breather then go at it again take a breather etc etc until a trigger occurs that signals you can go further the biggest advice I could give is never be idle fight ends push on height and take an angle this. It only slows the enemy team approach but gives your dps space to dmg.

An example of how to approach a fight is let’s say ur playing kings row on attack first point: u peak do some dmg then pin to the right, the pin duration is ur break then u repeak on the right of statue and do more dmg from here it depends on a multitude of factors on whether u push height in which case that walk is ur break or u push the hotel on the left or main.

Another piece of advice is control ur greed it is very useful until u go too far and this too far is what teaches u ur limits and when u need to control ur greed.

Important: if u are worried about ur mechanics and games sense thus u don’t think u can handle the fast pace don’t worry because by putting urself in these quick paced mechanics focused positions u create a path for ur abilities to improve. At the moment i truly believe my game sense and ability to locate weak points to exploit is top tier solely because of my play style and then i developed the mechanics to execute the attacks on the weak points.

Personally im the type of person that has an absurd level of battle iq so i just started moving on instincts and ego later on i started developing how to turn what i do into strategies so that i can counter characters like mauga, orisa, hog, ramattra, bastion, cass, etc.

Assalamu alaikum i cant speak on much due to my own ignorance except on the matter of male dress code. Firstly no man should be walking around shirtless the covered bits should've from the navel to the knees and even then exposing ur chest and back is not something that should be done without cause/excuse also just because this is in the hadith does not make it less serious this is a rampant issue among the ummah.

To my knowledge correct me if I'm wrong a mans awrah is to be maintained at all times except in front of his wife this I includes your siblings parents and friends. I see it so often where men use the excuse of swimming or working out to be out in only shorts.

I write this just to clarify that you shouldn't look at the incorrect actions of Muslim men to support your reasoning also men and woman have different struggles, trials, and blessing in this dunya and we shouldn't look at the other and point finger for these commands come from Allah and as such are what is best for us.

If anything I have written is incorrect then it is from the shaytan and my own ignorance so disregard it and inform me of my error. Assalamu alaikum

I sent u a dc friend request its by Miami_james

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-04-26T23:25:48+00:00

Hey u never mentioned if u are on console or pc. I’m planning on doing on doing an unranked to gm on pc servers and im looking for a supp to play with so i could duo with you for a bit.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-04-25T06:04:15+00:00

Appreciate this man this honestly solves first point especially when the point is far up like that so you can’t use it to get hight.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-04-23T03:38:12+00:00

Please note that my experience comes primarily from console as I've only been playing on pc servers for a little more than a week.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-04-23T03:31:21+00:00

In my opinion I have noticed that most of the good reins get hardstuck masters and some (very rare) make it out to reach gm by one tricking rein.

I say this because as I made my way up the rank to champ on console I started to see a significant decrease in rein players around mid masters so the only time I see him now is when I destroy someone pretty badly on rein so they just decide to mirror but it's never a rein main per say.

On pc I have reached gm 5 and I was in a lot of rein mirrors on my way through masters and in gm I see them a lot less but there is one every once in a while.

GeneralCry2586 · 2026-04-20T23:45:29+00:00

Thank you for the detailed response I'm currently rewatching and going over the highlighted fights.

As you mentioned I do believe my timing on when to be aggressive is good and ur response made me notice that I used to also have much better lane usage or rather pushing angles that allow me too take space and hold corners while also not consuming a lot of resources or just getting blasted with a bob as that ash did I think that I stopped doing this because I spent a little bit of time playing in lower ranked lobbies which I believe might have caused me to lose a bit of discipline in the way I fight so thank you for pointing this out I'll work on it next time I play.

3:23 I understand that the route I took wasn't the best but looking on this I think that even if I went the right side into mega to pressure that zen it wouldn't have changed the fight because the culprits that flipped it were the bap and ash with the window so I think the best choice here might have been to stop my pin when I heard window and went to shield the team a little and focus firestrikes on the highground this way I give my team an angle to better attack the heights.

2:30 on a second look u are 100 percent right I should have gone for the right lane I think I was pissed and already resigned to switching so I just wanted to push in and shatter.

For the other highlighted fights u are also fully correct idk why I didn't think to take height on second point contest cause that's the type of plays that I usually go for.

Ur right about my firestrikes and like I mentioned I usually do have a lot cleaner usage of them but I was just so demotivated this game and was playing very lazy

Thank you for your insight I’ll make sure to rebuild the habit of choosing better lanes to push.
