I think I know who you're talking about actually since I paired up with a similar one recently and he was just trash, but blamed the DPS for our "shit damage", lol. Yeah... Cause it's totally our fault that you're dying in the first 10 seconds because you can't deal with pressure at all. I've seen my fair share of healers in there, WHM, SCH, and AST alike, so I know when they're capable and when they're not. If you drop in the middle of me bursting their healer, I'll know you're worse than their healer is and that will determine the flow of the match.

It's very rare that I ever witness a healer suddenly begin to play well mid-match and turn things around. Usually, if you're falling behind in the beginning, it's very difficult to come back from that because the opposing team probably just got the adrenaline now too.

Also, as crazy as it sounds, it seems someone was right about queue times at night being better for people that care about rank. I was getting paired up with some better players for the most part. I only just stopped a few minutes ago because apparently the good players had stopped queuing.

I got a bad team and knew it was going to go downhill from there, especially since we were arguing right out of the gate on what the plan was, didn't coordinate well at all together, then I had the blame pinned on me, claiming my attitude was the reason why we lost, lol. Don't you just love that? Here you have 4 individuals that can't work together well, but you point your finger at one of them and say they're the cause, instead of admitting that the entire team just doesn't work.

It's okay if your team isn't coordinated. It sucks, but it happens. Just hope you have better luck next time and try to work better together, but don't be upset when you and another person doesn't click. Some teams just.don't.work. Simple as that.

But yeah, it's usually a bad sign when your own teammates are fighting against you in chat, even in the beginning of the match, so don't be surprised if you guys end up losing. I thought that maybe it was just a fluke getting queued up with them, but it was no fluke at all... I tried to queue up again after my first loss and saw them again.

After we lost that time, I just said "nope" and stopped queuing instead of letting these assclowns bring down my win ratio again, pulling me right back down to bronze (again). I think the top 10-20 guys have the right idea though. They play for a little bit at a specific time, then know when to stop. Whereas, I've been queuing up in the afternoons, thinking that playing more matches would be better so I could get more wins. Instead, all that has brought me is more losses.

I wish I could have gotten some more points tonight, but whatever... I can get some more tomorrow when the good players are queuing up again and I actually get put on teams that work together and shit, instead of playing this like it's 1v1.

Did someone say Silver?

Sounds about right, lol. We currently have 6 gold members on Primal. We're also finally weeding out the bronze folk, so after today, it's doubtful you will even see any in the top 100 any more. I keep seeing people in silver going up and down in the rankings though, lol.

It seems we've found Hell.

I think SE needs to do a better job of introducing people to PVP since it's a relative shadow to most. Either because they got rekt their first few times and never picked it up again or it's overly confusing for most, which if that's the case, then why are they even pvping in the first place.... oh that's right, LORE..... >.>

It's because of the i150 level sync that any of that PvP gear you get will be shit compared to anything you meld outside of PvP. You'd be better off just using gear post-i150 and melding the appropriate materia to it and have a PvP setup VS a PvE setup. PvP gear hasn't been relevant in a loooooooooooooooooooooong time, man. If you come into The Feast wearing any of the PvP gear, people are probably going to laugh at your ass, ask you what you're doing, and probably call you a noob.

Again though, blame SE for introducing gear to this mode which is about as useful as a wet paper bag though. If it was more viable, I'd be right there agreeing with you, but it's not and until it is... You probably shouldn't be wearing it.
