The absolute state of ranked…
Featuring:
- Only 2 guns being viable (bully-mizzy)
-Spectre armor being busted af (auto turns off aim assist and activates instantly)
-Recon stacking being near mandatory (2-3 per squad)
-10m + of camping waiting for someone to get bored and make a bad rotation so the whole map can gank them
-BUBBLE SPAM HOLY SHIT
-Nade spam in general is still extremely strong and unfun to fight against or use
-Teams extracting immediately after looting a key room to max points
Rant warning ig
This has got to be one of the worst ranked experiences in any game ever, and I’m not saying that lightly.
Instead of it being a mode where high skill players can battle it out for cool rewards, we get basically a gear check/camping sim where the team that camps the hardest and happens to have gold mizzys+ 5 bubbles+ 10 frags just gets to win for free.
It turns the mode that is supposed to be about how much skill you have in gunplay and map knowledge and turns it into a checklist that you have to meet to have the honor of playing gear roulette.
It genuinely doesn’t make sense why ranked isn’t just teams all loading in with rank associated sponsored kits that come with the chip built in, which would incentivize players to interact with the map in order to get a natural gear advantage while still being on a rather even playing field.
Get a sniper? Now your team has to adjust and play range. Get a wstr or mizzy? Now you might have to play indoors. It would make ranked so much more interesting and thoughtful than this battle Royale style that is happening right now.
