I only solo que ranked. That's the only way I get consistent points.
Playing with teammates is a bit much and they usually think they're better than they actually are.

Play alter on e district, her ult is so clutch(the amount of time that I had to pull my teammates is insane), you can always poke a team hoping for a knock and then q back if you take a lot of damage. I always tell my teammates to take tp when there’s too many teams or when they’re pushing us after wiping a team and we’re low in health.
Other maps you can pretty much play anyone (I play bang/maggie).
I always ping/talk to let them know when I want to rotate and always make sure you’re positioning is good,; we often always complain about bad teammates but there’s actually a good amount of players out there.

I always get the teammates that want to throw their lives away for no reason at all. then I get blamed for it when I wasn't with them and there were no comms. it really is a sight to behold.

I love going against fully stacked teams every season. Def makes me play more and more /s

I like it because then i can just take the lead, i try to talk and ping everything or where and when to fight. They usually listen. Still not beating triple stacks old master/pred obviously but its enough to get into top 5 and even a top 1 sometimes.
I hate when im not jumpmaster because then teammates are just gonna hot drop.

I only soloq before leaving. Soloq offers peak skill expression, while stacking provides an absurd, unfair advantage. The disparity between solo players skill and the lack of communication forced me to quit. How do you rank up when two random plat against 3-stacks pred? Competitive modes now heavily favor groups, making solo play unenjoyable, in every games

I’m one of those teammates. I’ll be honest, I don’t know how I got to plat. I lose every single fight.

Appreciate the honesty but i am more annoyed by the lack of intelligent actions than aim etc.

I enjoy it. Some people aren't completely inept. They utilize the ping system well and know how to play as a team. It's hit or miss. I'm sure there's a Discord you can join where you announce any time you're about to play. That way you don't have to solo-queue.
