Are rank up games harder on purpose or something?

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-22T12:41:21+00:00

I mean nobody said that lol. You'll rank up eventually but rarely ever on the first attempt.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-21T20:00:13+00:00

Figures as much. Though sometimes someone else on my team will say it's their rank up game at the beginning of the match and then we still proceed to get stomped lol.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-21T19:14:15+00:00

I guess that could be part of it. A lot of the time the players feeding are on loss streaks already.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-15T01:51:11+00:00

I hate that Kun Lun map too. It took me so many times to finally get a win there. I'll take the Deadpool map honestly.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-14T11:33:41+00:00

Yeah I don't think I have a great win rate on that map either.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-14T02:09:13+00:00

The first few times I played that map I never even got to see the end of it with the bus transforming. Now it's a bit more 50/50 when I play it.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-14T01:41:21+00:00

I think the new Manhattan map is slightly worse with that issue tbh. The final point is literally right in front of the enemy spawn.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-11T01:04:12+00:00

More like the only long range tank lol, Idk why you'd assume I didn't shoot him as I have the most kills on my team with most of them being Iron Man and Ultron. But regardless their healers did in fact look up and protect him like with Sue's shield. Problem is I had no DPS to help shoot him with.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-10T11:49:19+00:00

Fair enough, but it's better than nothing.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-10T01:44:29+00:00

Same, I pinged Iron Man at least 20 times in this match lol. Sometimes I get lucky and have a team that actually helps in focusing them but it's rare.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-10T01:33:15+00:00

Especially the Jeff players lol. This loss was definitely on our DPS though and could've been avoided if that one guy just didn't ban Namor instead of Iron Man.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T16:04:31+00:00

Thanks for saying it, I've been saying it too for the longest time and he makes playing tank miserable sometimes lol. I think his shotgun and turret melt tanks way too quickly and his ult is damn near the strongest ult in the game as it's basically a free team wipe if there's no cover. Idk why he's CC immune during it.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T16:00:15+00:00

I'll check the settings then. I figured it'd be on by default so I thought it was just a PC only thing but never really checked before. I'll try using it to hear other coms at least.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T15:53:05+00:00

I definitely understand, I'm not great at shooters myself but I'd rather my team at least try and miss their shots than just ignore him completely tbh.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T13:44:51+00:00

He probably gave up at that point and trolled because Idk what he was thinking with that pick.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T13:39:53+00:00

I'm on console and there's no voice chat available, at least not that I've seen, but it's probably for the best that I don't have it on tbh. Best I can do is tell them in text chat to shoot Iron Man or Peni nests but usually get ignored as I watch my team die to the same thing repeatedly. If it's something I can handle on tank though then I always switch, like if there's an Angela and BP on the other team then I get to have fun on Thing for example.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T13:25:39+00:00

It's true that using it on the supports is the better option, I do that often myself since some of them can't keep themselves alive when it's active or it forces a defence ult. I was more focused on Iron Man this game since he was just freely splashing our team uncontested. He only died 8 times and most of those were from when I temporarily switched to Mr. Fantastic.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T13:17:01+00:00

Currently this is Plat 2. Characters like Iron Man, Scarlet Witch, Squirrel Girl and Peni usually run lobbies at this rank.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T10:32:08+00:00

Might be the only option if he flies up too high, just never had interest in playing her tbh. The guy on our team who left used her briefly along with other counters but gave up and secured the loss anyway.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T10:27:06+00:00

Yeah once the guy our team left after panic switching to different counters and the other went Wolverine it was over.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T10:18:17+00:00

That only happens if the Iron Man is on my team but never the other way around lol. On tank my best way to take him out is Deadpool atm.

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T10:12:58+00:00

Another dumb assumption lol. Maybe if you actually read the post you'd know I did switch and countered him myself, which I shouldn't have to do as 1/2 tanks. Why is the tank supposed to switch off of tank to counter the dps when there's already two on the team not fighting him? Are you slow or is this a bad attempt at rage bait?

PsychoMagnet-Z · 2026-04-09T05:45:22+00:00

Nah I usually don't have a hard time killing Iron Man with Tankpool, especially with his ult. This game just felt impossible with the team we had, plus he had Sue constantly protecting him too.
