[QUOTE=Code3Response;51859187]I tell people in ranked that they suck. Because they do. Anything below gold has a serious skill dropoff[/QUOTE]
Are you smurfing (and in which case just being an asshole like yeah no shit people in lower ranks suck) or is this a classic example of the pot calling the kettle black?

No, this is a classic example of having shit teammates who torpedo your placement matches and have to carry the damn team every game. I've worked my ass off to carry myself out of the low levels and into gold, where I belong and where people dont play with the game on mute and have vision.
Anyone wanna play with a booster let me know, we have 3 boosters up right now. We have a TS as well :).

Okay? 1.) Still being a dick for no reason because I guess you decided not to find a five-man and 2.) Unless you're bordering on sub-gold and being matched with sub-golds it's pretty unlikely you're going to be matched with sub-golds to call shit.

Theres a difference between playing bad and being bad at the game. These people were bad at the game. I no longer queue with those under the level of 60 because anything less than that they are bad at the game and should not be in ranked.
Also I wanna give a big fuck you to anyone who lets their level 5 friend queue with them in Ranked.

Then why did you use present tense
And also wow yeah man telling someone they're bad at the game's going to make them want to stay and get better right?

Because they still are bad at the game. Ranked isnt to coach people. Casual is where you can be coached and learn the game. Then go to ranked to compete. You'll still pick up things in ranked, but no one is going to hold your hand because we (those who play ranked) expect that you can walk already.

Maybe I'm just not a dick and also understand that if you don't play with a five-man you run the risk of getting teammates with varying skill levels?
I don't know what to tell you, because nothing you've said so far has made me think any higher of your social skills.

Or etiquette, for a more accurate word.

Based on how toxic he seems, I don't think people really want to play with him if all he does is just flame them and tell them they're shit. Doesn't seem like the type who you'd want to queue with.
If you think I'm "toxic" then you most definitely have not played at a high level.
[QUOTE=Code3Response;51860238]If you think I'm "toxic" then you most definitely have not played at a high level.[/QUOTE]
If you think telling people they're shit is fine because you're a "high elo" player, then you're toxic.
if you think you're playing at a 'high level' at gold, you're deluded
get off your high horse

Just because the community's just as bad or worse than you the higher you go doesn't make you any better lol
You definitely fit the description of "toxic"

You can ask the others who play at plat and diamond, if you think what I'm saying in this thread is toxic then you have a lot to leaen

I played at gold for a while because of a suckass team and had a 1.8 K/D. It does happen.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;51860504]Oh wow okay.

Does gold count as high elo? Well shucks, that means I'm in high elo as well!
You're all garbage, you inferior silver peasants! Oh, I'm playing badly? Well fuck you! I'm ~high elo~ so you're all absolutely shit! Go back to casual you mouth-breathing retards! Haha!

I mean I'm right on the border with plat myself, but gold is by no means 'a high level' - all of plat and diamond is above, that's where it starts getting seriously
this guy is chatting like he's some hotshot and this is only gold we're talking about

It's completely okay to play ranked if you're bad. You'll just get a bad rank and be matched with other bad players. Ranked is just for having matches that are more fair and competitive than Casual.
I understand being frustrated by dumb teammates, but a toxic player like you does a lot more damage to a team.

why is smurfing a word. such a stupid word. why can't we just have "i made a second account and bought a new game."
[QUOTE=redBadger;51861169]why is smurfing a word. such a stupid word. why can't we just have "i made a second account and bought a new game."[/QUOTE]
origins of the word came from a pair of people making new accounts and beating up newbies
their usernames were smurf related so the term stuck

tbh id rather have a toxic but good teammate than a bad but silent/friendly teammate because you can mute people who are toxic and ranked is kind of a joke in aus due to our low playerbase + lvl20 ranked requirement. When people say shit like "ive never played this map before" on a vanilla map or try to use ash's gadget on a reinforced wall, you just want to exit the game right there

No a "toxic" player like me actually carries the team so they don't get curb stomped. I don't want to play with these people who are bad, but I have to because placement matches (which they ruined for me).
It's a team game and when you have Helen Kellers for teammates, you're not going to win.

So find teammates to play with then? Then you wouldn't have to rely on the matchmaking giving you bad teammates.

this sounds insanely like me back when i played league o legends and in retrospect i was a shining case of the dunning kruger effect. I can't verify if you're actually good or not but you should worry about your own skill because you are the only constant variable in your games. Or be like me and switch to 1v1 games where you have no teammates
When you start flaming teammates you are kinda self sabotaging a lot of the time. All you do is demoralize the team and make people not like you which in turn can literally cost you a game. If we are already losing and some guy is running his mouth thinking he's the hot stuff and gets to tell us all whats what then guess what? His chances of winning just plummeted because I'm happy to take a loss if it means he doesn't win and I no longer care about the game.
If you think you should be higher ELO then you will get there, but being a twat to people who are just trying to play the game and blaming them because the system is apparently against you doesn't really help you at all.
Seriously if you actually think berating/flaming random teammates in a team base game is going to do anything but hurt your chances of winning and get you reported then you are delusional. I see it in MOBAs all the time too, some hotshot guy who is in diamond will literally spit his dummy out and intentionally throw a game for no reason, often when we are actually equal or doing fine, and spend the whole time flaming his teammates while costing them the game, its pathetic.
