Up until season 9 i was average mid-high plat. But come season 10 to now the end of season 13, i just kept dropping and now in flimsy high silver. How? Some loss due to toxic people, some due to throwers, most due to my squad mates (who are friends) playing with the wrong mind set. They're now in low and high gold but play as if they're still in high diamond, not caring about my rank.
In every match i'm always doing the call outs, if someone has ult, where someone else, whos low, whos discorded, whos behind, strats, important stuff like that. As the seasons passed i discovered my mates listened to me less and would rather do their own thing, but then wonder why their big plan fucked up or wonder why they died. After me pointing out the errors they go 'oh yeah you're right, i shouldnt of have done that'. Side note- the random team mates we match with do their best to work with us, but the team struggles to play as a 6 man team.
I admit im not the best but i try my hardest, but admittedly my confidence with Dva has dropped because no one follows through with my plans, my friends only want to do the overwatch-league strats... in a silver/gold match. Honestly i don't know what to do, i can't be more 'dominate/leader' i guess you could call it without my mate turning around to tell me to stop being mean (even though i gotta be firm to one of them who gets easily triggered by death and throws out insults/racial slurs at the enemy) I used to wish to be back in mid plat, but now am just wishing to be back in mid-high gold at this point.
~i would stream the comp matches so i can try to show my mates how we can improve, but in doing so my viewers have voiced their thoughts on how they don’t really like how my squad mates treat me in regards to ignoring plan ideas and call outs, my mates sometimes sadly respond to them in a harsh/smart ass way~
i want to stream again but i am afraid that my one mate who gets triggered is going to say something thats going to get my channel reported. Because he doesnt know how to calm himself down
