u/One-Cat-2000

I'm 16 rn, was just 2470 elo dropped to 2300, I average 18/17 1.04kd 82adr have a -0.05% swing and currently play ESEA main. These stats are fine, but I almost never feel like I am THAT guy in my games as of lately, I've averaged 1.2kd+ 90adr etc in the same elo ranges before, but now it genuinely feels as if I cannot bring my mechanics to a level that can help me dominate faceit games, it seems as if almost everybody is at an even playing field with me mechanically, I understand its a tall task to "dominate" when the average lobby I'm in is just outside of a top 1000 average, but I really feel like I should be able to atleast have a little more output on the game. Any ideas?

EDIT: Now I played like I was "that guy" today and topfragged in 3k elo lobbies so bite me in the ass IDEK

I'm currently 2200 elo in NA, averaging a 1.17kd 16/14 89 adr splits. I've peaked 2500, after reset and some unfortunate things I was sitting low 2k elo, and I climbed back to 2200. My main problem with this game is it feels like its completely a slot machine, of course there is the 30/30/40 rule but jeez, sometimes it feels like 45% of the games are auto losses, I hear somebody use their mic in round 3, they sound like a complete retard and I just know in the back of my mind, that the games probably cooked lol. And most the time I'm right. Should I start dodging more lobbies that look off? LMK what works best for you guys.

P.S I'm a good mechanical player, and likely joining an ESEA main team this season, this is like 90% a discussion about dos/do not dos in solo queue, more than it is a discussion about narrowing down mechanical skill. I'm confident in my ability to compete at a high level, I just want to get my elo to 3,000 in due time.
