Because maybe the next game the SCCC and the K guys will be on your team ?

Become the -K- and SCCC. I don't see them coming here on the forums complaining all the time.

I needed one more win to get rank one.  I joined into the match and didn't recognize any names but a bunch of players on my team were from clans that I know are the high end competition clans.

Got a big ole smile on my face.

the choice is yours...

 

 

GOOD LUCK

Easy to say.  Hard to do when real life doesn't let you play 40 - 50 hours per week.

When do I get that team because I never do. I get team potato and team meatball all the time.

[SKurj]

the reasons will never run out...    

you just need one more win in 20 battles to go from a 45%'er to a 50%'er...

[Kenrod_Melrocity]

Played a ranked match earlier today where our team had an average WR of just below 48% and red was 55.4%. We beat the snot out of them.

There are actually quite a few good clans and players out there playing. I run into them even on nights with only a few games.  Like tonight I played with some QQ7 guys, RNG and TNG in randoms.  Some others too not necessarily hurricane but typhoon guys who are often solid to play with too. You just have to learn the clan names by looking at the colours after the match.

I've heard of the "LOTTERY", heard you needed a lot of luck. Though I'm not so sure that's the best way for battles to be fairly matched.

You don't have to play the game full time to improve;  you just have to work consistently on improving.

There is a huge difference between improving and getting a 60 - 70% win rate.  For that kind of rate, you need lots of time to play per week and a green or purple clan to div with consistently in random battles.

As per your title, you can't "fix" an MM function that doesn't exist in the first place.

Well, right there, that 60-70% player doesn't have any divmates in Ranked, so they often aren't 60-70% players at that point.

Once you get around the mid 50s, your mechanical skills (angling, shooting, playing your concealment, etc) are about as good as those unicums. Where they pick up the extra wins is map reading and situational awareness.

Divs certainly help, whether it's by coordinated effort, or simply guaranteeing the caliber of one or two of your teammates. These advantages are nullified in Ranked
