NB: This was just a post of me venting about two shit games back to back where the same player absolutely rolled through even when half of our team was pre-warned, but I wanna note that in general this trend of “one player gets fat then rolls the other team despite their best efforts” is something I’m noticing on my own teams too.


What am I meant to do when by luck or some other factor a player gets what you think is a meagre lead (1-2k) then spirals into an absolute seal clubbing?

When there’s not surrender mechanic you’re held ransom to ensure the winning team extracts their “fun” from having you feed into them until they decide playing TDM is enough and play the objectives?

I’ve had close games, equal games, games where we lose but it’s a well fought, but recent updates have stuffed the MMR (or maybe cheating and smurfing is just common now?)

    I only play ranked, and have had the opposite experience recently. Are you playing un-ranked matches? Last time I played one I had similar frustrations.

      Unranked. It really could just be that because I seem to get less seal clubbings (in both directions) in ranked.

      It’s a shame the slots are so limited rn because I really struggle to make time to be online for ranked at all.

        My sympathies. I hope the slots are expanded soon. I’m sure there are many people that are in the same boat.
