am i insane or ?
ff14 is the only game where the most toxic trait of every hero shooter, is the only method of guaranteeing a higher rate of success while not breaking the official rules. ive never played another game where the entire pvp community ENCOURAGES you to instalock other peoples mains with nefarious intent. hard carry all you want on some obscure mid-tier class, it wont matter. you HAVE to play certain classes in ranked, because those are the classes everyone is told to play to rank up, and everyone will play those classes to rank up because they are busted, but everyone playing it on your team seems to be an absolute potato. so where does that leave you? suddenly 75% of the class roster is out the window and you can only play the same class everyone else plays, ONLY so they cant play it. its ff14's version of "avoid teammate" and its super common. and i cant even understand why its needed. i know WHY its needed, but i cant comprehend why. why is the matchmaker and/or player pool so ridiculous that you can AND will see the exact same person 15 games in a row? to climb the ranks you literally have to just play the same thing some bad teammate is using, and then hes stuck as an enemy giving free wins.

If you mean climbing from Bronze - Gold to Plat, yeah there are two good carry classes (GnB and VPR) because everyone hits them and wastes their ressources on them
In Plat it still happens, but not that often
Even in Diamond Crystal or Crystal + it happens, but very rarely, probably because if people play on controller, they cant switch quickly to a certain player.
