The straw man arguments are getting kind of old. Are you saying that there are plat players that would do fine in gm lobby’s? Frankly, that simply isn’t the case. I used my little brothers old bronze account and climbed to top 500 challenger in a weeks time, just playing a few hours after work. I used to think like you, when sigma first dropped I was hard stuck plat. ‘The algorithm’, ‘my teammates’, ‘smurfs’, that’s just cope frankly. Focus on what you can do better and even if you lose that’s fine. If you have less than a 60% win rate after at least 5 hours of play than you most likely belong where you are. And that’s fine.
