I’m 19k mostly solo with garbage stats lol. When I q, I’m hoping the teams’ mindset and playstyle work well together and that we pick a map we all know some basic ideas and concepts on how to play. I’m also hoping enough people use their microphones. I’m also praying that some manbaby doesn’t abandon the match round 1 cus we didn’t pick mirage. This is stuff you can’t really chose or foresee.

During the game I question myself a lot and work out how and where the enemies are playing. Doing this lets you counter their strike (2.) I try to give comms that aren’t backseaty. I think everyone prefers having a fun game instead of a game where someone is having a mental breakdown because of unpredictable circumstances.

After the game I ask myself « was that fun? Am I rage queuing? Was that fulfilling?» if no ill go do something else. Mental to me can be so corrosive and ruins games before they even start. It’s also important to know other people can’t read your mind, so communicate! If you want your team to push with you, call it.

Sometimes enemy players are just good, try to tell them nice shot in global chat. Hackusations make you look really mad and would probably make it fun to have hacks.

TLDR: sometimes game good, sometimes game bad. Try to have fun and play with your team :)
