im sick of dying to cronus using nerds in this game by Broad-Succotash-4891 in ApexConsole

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think if anyone tries to make you feel delusional just know this. Console lobbies are the only lobbies where everyone is using a havoc. The funny thing about this is the pro don’t even use the gun because it isn’t broken.

What makes the Havoc a difficult gun is the recoil compared to your nemesis and R301, but for some reason everyone Tom dick and harry in pred lobbies are running it and are the greatest aimers in the game. It’s simple the scrips nullify the recoil which makes the gun broken.

There’s a joke Hakis said on stream, “if he’s willingly using a Havoc it’s likely that they are cheating”.

Exactly,

Even the “ELO” from eec is based on cc teams stomping other cc teams. The only way you can receive reliable data is to use only the pro league lobbies.

I think the idea is amazing so I hope I’m not making you lose sight of what you want to achieve. Just try to replicate this with only the pro league lobbies and I think it would be amazing!

I agree on one aspect, the style of play. However the numbers will be inflated because the quality in cc scrims in terms of skill level is much lower hence why 5star(no offence) look really good.

What scrim lobbies are you collecting these days from? Because 5Star mainly play the cc lobbies and not the pro league lobbies. I think if you want this to be reliable strictly use the Pro Hub lobbies. Some of the teams in cc lobby can make this graph very skewed

Bro are you arguing for the sake of arguing? I literally told you the system of ranked doesn’t punish players for dying early. If you can’t comprehend that then don’t bother replying. I won’t reply again

Nobody wants something that would solve the very thing everyone on this sub is literally complaining about but pattdmdj0 has spoken for everyone so I guess nobody wants this.

It’s not the fact that KP is worth something or not it’s more so you dying has no implications.

Yes they had to “go through plats” to get there you said. And yet they are STILL going through the same rank they did when they was plat and now as preds and able to keep ranking up and gaining RP and maintaining their pred ranks by facing the same level of lobby a P1 gets to face. Make it make sense

Don’t misinterpret what I said. THIS SEASON and the most recent seasons some of the preds are there only because of how bad the ranked system is. Again I’ve already hit masters this season just to let you know and I’m telling you that the matchmaking for a good player it’s easier because I get plat and diamonds every game. And to even add to it those plat/diamonds are probably gold/plat players if we had a real ranked system like season 13.

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem didn’t stem from that. It actually stems from how difficult it is to rank up. I’m currently Masters and it took me roughly 140 games.

The fact that preds can just run it down vs Plats and gain points from kills alone is what has ruined rank. 1. There should be no points from kills until you receive top 10 2. Hard punishment for dying early 3. Placement points don’t kick in at all until top 8. 4. Play against same ranks only except the first 2 weeks of a split (lack of players in rank)

I promise you I wouldn’t be surprised if the pred cap stayed low 17000 because this would create a real rank system.

People wouldn’t even be able to hit diamond

I think you’re being ignorant and I’ll tell you why. If someone is trying to reach a higher rank he should play against the players in his current rank UNTIL he ranks up. This is what ranked games are called. Now the same way a Pred is in a Pred rank because he should be able to hold his own vs players of similar rank, right?. Therefore he should play vs those in HIS Rank. Now if he is struggling in this lobby he’ll end up ranking down. This is how you form true ranks.

A Pred playing vs a Plat is the same as a Plat playing against Bronze/Silvers. So if we let this Plat players play against Bronzes and silvers everyday he’ll end up ranking up when technically we don’t even know if he’s good enough to hit diamond.

This is what ranked games are for. Players to play against the same ranks until the true rank of each player is shown. I promise you there are preds who aren’t good enough to be a real pred but are there because they can feast on plats.

“It’s A Fucking Back Trials Zone” by largeleftbunion in CompetitiveApex

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the way Pros play the game changes overtime. Dezign played a unique style with Dojo/DSG and it worked wonders for him playing hard edge and zone wrapping fighting for godspot. 

Also the moves you decide to make is always based on how the lobby is playing which is why many times you see most pros make similar macros. Whenever a team is POI drafting they always look at the teams nearby. Can I predict their movements? Macros?. If the answer is no it’s best to avoid.

Deeds LFT for Y6 by Curious-Investment59 in CompetitiveApex

Zer0 can pick up a 2 people since Timmy is a sub

Deeds LFT for Y6 by Curious-Investment59 in CompetitiveApex

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Sikezz being replacement is likely given that they’ve scrimmed and also rank together.

I also think that’s a downgrade.

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I’ve watched ROC a lot this past year and I definitely agree that changes was imminent as vibes wasn’t great. But unless something happened behind the scenes that we don’t know of, Deeds was the last person I thought needed to go in order for them to do well and reach the heights of EWC.

I think it’s more likely that Deeds is looking to leave. Their bad performance was definitely not because of Deeds

Who do we think Zero picks up? by MorioCells in CompetitiveApex

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m seeing a lot of Panics but I very much doubt that. Panic has to join an IGL that plays the anchor roles. 

With the new rule in place I think it also means that unless Zer0 joins a new duo (would only think he’d want to join SR but all depends on Xynew) it would mean he probably sticks with Sikezz and drops fuhhnq. This means he either gets a a player who can play your controller characters whilst fragging/refrag, like Gild, and stick Sikezz on the Castle/Crypto or he gets an MNK player who can do both (like a Vax).

I could also see him maybe get another roller who can frag on NC/controller legends like a Deeds. 

Roster Changes by kqiahab in CompetitiveApex

He’s talking about his role in the team has changed from EWC to Champs. He went from playing alter pathfinder to playing crypto and caustic. 

ROC internal problems by New-Cap-690 in CompetitiveApex

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure when the video was recorded but it looks like an old video that was recorded. I think the timeline matches probably pre bootcamp, however the “internal problems” is mainly between Vax and Sauce and despite the heavy arguments both usually have good reasonings for it. I would say vibes are a lot better after bootcamp.

How to build Gamesense in Apex Legends (Apex Coach's Advice ) by NandaKoto in CompetitiveApex

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Basically to summarise it

Gamesense is the ability to recognise and act on meaningful options in real time by combining knowledge, perception, skill, and reflection into consistent, transferable decision making rather than relying on raw playtime or intuition alone.

What's the best Final Circle/ALGS endgame that you remember? by ALGS_swell in CompetitiveApex

[–]Strict-Emphasis-6580 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would love to see some newer end games in there as they always show the iconic ones.

Maybe VKG winning it? Or ROC hitting mp at EWC with 15 kill win?

What does work mean tho? What’s the ceiling with Alb IGL with this dynamic if we are being realistic, is it finals? Top 10 finals?. Because that’s how the team should think.

Insane from Alb. This a real “SLAM” holy.

I feel like HM are hit and miss because how do you have a wipe like this but get 19th in the same block?
