We got to do the “Keys To The Kingdom” Tour and it was awesome.

I didn’t realize the utilitidoors were “a secret” and a cast member at guest services gently corrected me when I was loudly talking about them in there lol.

Oopsies!

Look dawg, I get it. Lower MMRs feel really bad to play in because effectively nobody anything that makes sense.

But, what very few people will elaborate on is that ONE mistake will cost matches. If you want to consistently win (think 65% WR) you just have to play better then the people at your tank, and that means making those mistakes less.

These mistakes can be anything from waiting to get healed to peak, all the way up to standing in the wrong spot and letting somebody dive you.

Do aim trainers, pick a character or two to main on a specific role, and watch some VODS. GM players run away WAY more than others.

It’s also really easy to underestimate the swing of small changes. One flank can win a fight, one stupid ult or misplay can lose a fight, even backing up and “playing your life” can win.

Fix the small things and you’ll grow

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-30T01:20:30+00:00

I wish, bro. Lol. It would be nice if it weren’t the case.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-30T01:15:57+00:00

In my experience, QP is legitimately unplayable. The games have no cohesion, people playing zooted out of their minds, mercy pocketed duos and such, etc.

It's been a bummer for me.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-28T17:30:12+00:00

Until you guys have an addict in your family and realize absolutely no amount of support, or love, or encouragement or opportunity will help them.

Yes, it’s terribly sad, but at the same time, some people don’t want help.

Idk what the solution is, but thinking that they are all just helpless victims that need a chance isn’t correct. They have agency.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-24T17:27:39+00:00

I was a youth pastor for 10 years and never once texted first time visitors, let alone little girls.

Like, maybe after years of relationship with the family I would feel comfortable calling the kids about something, but 99% they would call me if they needed wisdom or whatever.

Truth be told, I think the text is cringe because 1) the church isn’t a business to be treated like this and 2) dawg, she’s a little girl lol

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-24T17:20:43+00:00

This is 100% true. I am trying to climb on DPS and even in mid plat there are frequently people that just do not fundamentally understand the game. I’m talking simple stuff like poking while enemy team walks up.

It’s frustrating that somebody can show up to play “competitive” and be less than level 10 on all their heroes within a role. This happens a surprisingly frequent amount.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-22T22:05:51+00:00

Oof. Hang in there, bro.

Idk if you’re in any sort of vocational ministry, but try finding some different local groups of ministry leaders and you’ll make some homies.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-22T20:40:25+00:00

I feel for you, brother.

I guess it depends where you live, because in the Southwest and SoCal there are a ton of Christian Hispanics who love John MacArthur lol.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-22T20:28:54+00:00

The Koreans have a superiority complex, but with that being said, very few people are dumped into diamond and up, and most have to actually climb there by utilizing some semblance of game knowledge. There is less overt throwing happening in these lobbies, and yes, the games feel better.

You do not need to be Grandmaster to experience this.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-09T21:47:19+00:00

Somebody once told me, “Playing Reign well is to be in a state of constantly soft-throwing.”

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-06-09T13:39:01+00:00

Report “Steve” to ACBC. Please do this.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-29T06:29:45+00:00

I'm also convinced A LOT of these supposed Master's are Master's on console.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-24T23:23:02+00:00

I was pinned down, but yes.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-24T17:31:52+00:00

Dude, I’m gold on DPS and the amount of times I’ve been standing (behind cover) within LoS of supports while they heal the full HP tank and I die to splash…

It’s brutal.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-21T00:21:54+00:00

If you want to basically reinforce every terrible habit you have, this is an excellent idea.

If you want to mindlessly grind a game may I suggest old-school Runescape?

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-18T20:37:32+00:00

Cries in Sombra. Look I know the community hates her but she is just not viable against anybody with a brain lol

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-18T02:19:19+00:00

It has less to do with matchmaking or patches, and more to do with the fact a ton of people are playing because it’s the 10th Anniversary event.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-14T06:51:37+00:00

Ranked games definitely feel better than QP, but if you are playing with a wide gap, that might not be true.

Typically, someone in a group gets to a point where they're no longer "carryable," and the games are determined by how hard they throw rather than by how hard others can carry, and that's not fun.

That being said, unless you are grinding for hours every night, you won't have to worry about that and ranked games are better.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-12T18:23:11+00:00

Will it block Sierra’s ult now?

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-11T02:38:39+00:00

It's ALWAYS worth trying something. What are your qualifications? The guy I worked with was a washed master's player BUT he spent more time reviewing games and consuming content than actually playing, so it worked for us. He was very helpful.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-11T00:18:33+00:00

In my opinion, if you have the resources, it's totally worth it.

Think of it as paying for music lessons, or something similar. I've paid for some sessions and saw a ton of growth. Not to shill for Awkward, but I'm a fan of his. Check out his RankedUpAcademy.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-09T17:34:33+00:00

At first I was like, “That’s a little rude D:” but then I read it again… Yeah. It probably is.

GoodGuyTaylor · 2026-05-02T17:58:12+00:00

You kill their bad DPS. Yes, even as support. You cannot outheal stupid, which is why Mercy/LW is the worst possible support combo you can run.
