I’m climbing out of gold right now. Some people get so unbelievably tilted in gold it is crazy. If the other team caps 3 points on payload they just get belligerent and toxic. Blaming, arguing, typing, tilting. It actually impacts my gameplay and I lose focus.
I climbed my main account to plat and will probably cap out at diamond at this rate. I basically just optimized my settings, learned how to play the game and I am climbing.
I have a second account because I don’t want my friends to see me online sometimes. Sometimes I just want to solo que after work. So this account is lower because I haven’t played it since I got better. I’m climbing with out really trying. I’ve already gone from gold 5 to gold 1 in two days and not really struggling.
Someone basically cursed me out in a game, called my aim trash and verbally abused me the entire second round. After I lost that game, I won my next game and was promoted to gold 1. It honestly just put me in such a bad mood for no reason.
I honestly think plat is like the sweet spot of skill and fun.
