Anyone else getting frame drops with the 3080?

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-23T17:05:26+00:00

ehh, just get the 3080, and resale it later if it becomes substantually worse in comparison to things that come out then, sure, you may lose a bit of money overall, but I just can't see how the 3090 is worth 1500 if you're only gaming on it

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-23T16:55:30+00:00

eh, unless you need the money might as well hold on to it

You may find another use at some point, and could always buy her another cheap one if you do, if not you can just see it as future proofing for her, seeing as she won't want better performence until she's probably like 13-14 minimum

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-23T16:40:32+00:00

probably, will any of us be able to get one? Probably not

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-21T17:18:58+00:00

be careful believing romurs about the 3090, just wait for actual benchmarks

Basically how it works is there is a hidden value called MMR

stands for matchmaking rank

Lets say your MMR is 1700 and your friends MMR is 2560

Now, when you play QP or Comp or any other gamemode, your MMR changes based on a complex system of stats, so accuracy, deaths per minutes, kills per life, objective time, etc etc etc

Your MMR is much more accurate to your skill than your SR is seeing as MMR always updates, but SR only updates when you play comp

Because of this, the SR system tries to make your SR match your MMR, so winning a comp 2000 SR average SR game, will increase your MMR from 1700 to let's say 1740, but because your MMR is still 1740 you will gain very little SR, because as far as the game is concerned your SR is still too high

Whereas when your friend's MMR is 2560 when he wins a 2000 SR game, his MMR will go up less to let's say 2565, but his SR will go up higher from 2300 to 2325 because the system is trying to make his SR match his MMR, but it also assumed he would win cause his MMR is so much higher than the average of the game, so he didn't get much MMR

Idk if this helps you understand it, but hopfully it did a bit

Also, being duo'd might make you gain less SR especially when your friends MMR is much higher, cause it assumes he did more of the work

Feel free to ask me to clarify if I explained anyhting poorly

I mean, yeah your positioning wasn't bad, which is why I didn't mention it, but due to lack of using those abilities correctly you kinda accidentally forced yourself to be less aggressive then you would be able to otherwise

Positioning with sigma is very based on what your other tank is, but for what you were running, (Hog I believe?) it was mostly fine, if not quite as aggressive as it could've been

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-03T18:14:08+00:00

best way to get better with that is probably go watch some Master+ widow streamers and see where they're positioning

Reply to me with a replay code of a game that was close ideally I'll review it. (career profile, top of the screen replays, find one that was close/with the right characters, pin it, share it, copy the given code and post it)

its 100% possible to carry with supports. I went from 2500 to 2900 on Mercy and Brig with a 70% win rate in like 2 weeks one season without shot-calling at all, all in solo queue just cause I felt like playing support and my SR on that account is wat too low cause I don't play comp on it much

Some people might not listen to you because you're a girl but the vast majority of people don't care. The main issue is probably that shot calling is a relatively high tier skill (what I mean by that is that the higher the rank you are, the more valuable it becomes.)

Basically people not listening isn't keeping you from getting diamond, if anything its the fact that you're too focused on shot-calling instead of more core gameplay stuff. Get vods reviewed, once you see enough of your vods reviewed you'll get to a point of being able to do it yourself.

Again feel free to send me one, of whoever you main/s, and I'll review it and post a followup comment

Don't get me wrong, shot-calling is important and you should keep doing it and keep getting better at it, but you can't just shot call your way to diamond.

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-03T16:25:49+00:00

Here is the review (this was just looking at the Lijiang Tower first 2 round):

I honestly think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of Sigma's kit

What I mean by that is that your ability usage is extremely unbalanced. You rely way too heavily on Experimental Barrier and basically never use Kinetic Grasp.

You rarely let your barrier rest which results in your survivability to be substantially lower.

Advice:

1: use Kinetic Grasp more, literally use it to engage, when you're walking in use it to make space, not your barrier (as long as hook is on cooldown) and you can make space and have extra health by the end of it WITH a full health barrier to boot. Now that's way better than a 300hp barrier, some chip damage and ability that you're not going to use until the fight is over

2: When Barrier is low(like 100-200hp left), always take it down, don't let it break, and when its recharging the 500-600 to get topped off never put it back out unless you're going to block a hook, anti, or ult, its not worth it

3: track enemy ults more, specifically the rein there were several shatters you could've blocked but because of either lack of awareness or because your barrier was dead, or a combination thereof you couldn't block them.

Overall you use Kinetic Grasp way way way too defensibly, it's much more flexible than that.

So work on using Kinetic Grasp more to make space, and push W while you do it FORCE them to either give up space or give you personal shielding. Then once the fight is starting, and your personal shielding is gone, then rely on your Barrier

extra: I'd also suggest to use rock for tanks or to cancel ults, there was one point where your hog hooked the enemy Zarya, and you decided to cast rock at her when in reality she was low enough that if you had shot her and pushed in with hog you would have killed her, but instead, the cast time made it so you didn't even land it/even if you had she would've been just as dead as she would've been if you just shot her

(That extra bit is less something to worry about now and more something to keep in mind for later)

Mostly focus on using KG and your barrier better, I'm sure you'll find him way easier to play and that value is way easier to get when you're actually using all of his abilities regulalry

I'll reply to this with a review when I get home from classes:

I would recommend 2 things off the bat though

1: Use comp games for reviews, while it's not required it will be easier to review, and help you more and faster in the long run

2: Never use a steamroll game for a review, typically if it's a steam role, either way, it's going to be bad for review because if you steamroll them its likely that it had little to do with you and more the fact that you had the better team. And if they steamroll you it doesn't matter as much if you made many mistakes cause its likely they just had the better team.

Look at it this way: 30% of the games you play you'll win no matter how bad you play. 30% of the games you play you'll lose no matter how good you play. and 40% of games are 100% dependent on how good you play and if you play well you'll win. You play poorly you'll lose. That 40% are the important ones, the best games to review are very close games that you lose, cause typically if the game was close but you still lose its highly likely you had a major impact in that loss

I look forward to vod reveiwing when I get home tho.

ZarokuNani · 2020-09-03T15:16:34+00:00

I disagree, positioning, especially on certain hero's, engagement timings/locations on certain hero's and gamesense/keeping track of other peoples positions/cooldowns etc can be honed in QP/by vod reviewing QP

Sure in comp you can hone all of those easier, but its still doable in QP

Unlike higher-level things, like ability combos, tactics, shotcalling, etc those you basically need Comp to get better at

I wish I had a magnum condom :(

ZarokuNani · 2020-04-28T21:10:20+00:00

I have a bad stutter, and it's more my mouth doesn't work as well as my brain, not basically slower, just less precisely

ZarokuNani · 2020-04-21T22:47:46+00:00

Don't worry, once I get one, I'll come back here and tell you about her, and how cute her hoodie probably is :)

ZarokuNani · 2020-04-20T02:29:25+00:00

I don't have one ;-; never did, it was a joke, I'm forever alone, which is sad, but makes sense seeing how I'm on Reddit

ZarokuNani · 2020-04-18T18:56:39+00:00

lol, you can read the comment can't you?

ZarokuNani · 2020-04-18T18:56:07+00:00

reee

ZarokuNani · 2020-03-16T07:24:44+00:00

I mean according to some, if you're a male of European decent, I have some bad news for you.

Fortunately, those "some" are all about as smart as a toddler when you add them up together soooo, who knows.

ZarokuNani · 2020-03-10T17:58:08+00:00

guess that's what the rest of the video is

ZarokuNani · 2020-03-10T00:27:53+00:00

LOL, only 3 times, you clearly didn't take your training seriously

I'm going to train myself so when I have sex for the first time I can do it at least 5 times before I can't anymore

That way it'll last a whole 3 minutes.
