Confirmed for never even playing the game, 2000-2500 isn't silver.

>>387202285
is the loot system similar to overwatch's?

>>387202325
>confirmed for never playing

As I said before, I placed 2740 despite losing 5 placement matches - I didn't read your entire tantrum so I didn't see your "2000-2500" but lets face it, your probably lower than that since you wont tell us the actual number, kek. I'm sorry you suck.

I got placed in diamond and I never even played lucioball last year, if it makes you feel better OP.

If you didn't read it then how did you know he wasn't in platinum too? Your entire speel is falling apart faster than Overwatch's playerbase.

>>387202551
>how did you know he wasn't in platinum too

he said he couldnt get there, or should I say, you said it. lol. Why are you so triggered you are shitty at a mode in Overwatch of all games? Goddamn.

I like it better than last year because you can't shove people with your right click anymore.

That shit was infuriating.

>>387202684
its fun this year I'm assuming the physics were just as whack as it was before, I haven't played before this season. Getting to plat was almost too easy.

They changed the reload time on your toon's abilities and changed how the ultimate works, it's not the same game as last year's.

Lucioball came out when the game was running at 20 tick, not the current 60 tick.

You've been playing for a year of 60 tick (or, like most people, werent playing when the game was running at 20 tick) and Lucioball has not been updated to 60 tick for whatever reason.

This is the problem with Lucioball, granted, if you got a shit rank its on you.

>>387202818
>if you got a shit rank its on you.

according to him its the matchmaking's fault. lel.

>>387202779
It feels the same as last time in terms of physics. The new ult and removal of shoving promotes more active gameplay than last year.

First year playing it and got 3494

I think you might just be shit OP

It's much better now. The new ult requires actual skill and planning and the reduced range on your boop means you have to actually be accurate.

I love it, I've already had three games where we Mercy Ruled them out. Placed in high platinum and still there.

>>387202930
>reinstall game to open the 5 boxes from twitch prime

>>387206990
Except when your game registers a save but the net code gives the other team a goal anyway.
They need to fix that, at the very least. There's an issue if the player is registering a perfect save on their end and not everyone else. It's not a hit box issue like people keep crying, it's a net code issue.

>>387207191
I haven't run into that. I hate to say it, but it works fine on my end. ;)

>>387200415
I placed Diamond in Lucioball and stopped. Shit is boring.

Lucio Ball is slow and unreliable cause the game isn't really designed for it.
Don't really get why my friend hates Rocket League but loves Lucio Ball.

>>387207990
lol It really isn't, you're just shit

>>387206889
Just a guess, but maybe people are less willing to be experimental, and stick to the meta, which is easier to counter since everyone knows what to expect.

>they're trying to steal some of rocket league's thunder
why put so much effort into trying to though?

Lucioball was always a shit tier mode that really brings to light the shortcomings of the games engine. Its just that the first time Lucioball came around it was still thee games honeymoon period

What are you talking about, lucioball is a million times better than it was last year. I'm actually surprised how small a change of making the ult not garbage makes it more fun.

Even the competitive lucioball is good, it's the only good aspect of competitive play without any of the autism that you normally get. No team composition bitching, no getting shit maps like anubis, nothing. It's honestly one of the only good things Blizzard has ever done with this game, though with doomfist actually being a good character and TDM maybe they decided to start making a good game now.

>>387209636
>doomfist actually being a good character

Pshhh respect the noble sewages

He's much better than ana, sombra, and orisa.

>>387204456
>always on the other team
fug

>>387203384
>Masters is average
Masters and up is the top 4% of the playerbase
GM and up is less than 1%

>>387209758
I'll give you that Orisa is unimpressive and Sombra is actively bad but Ana dominated the game for months after release and is still quite strong

>>387210093
>but Ana dominated the game for months after release and is still quite strong
That's not a good thing, she was aggressively overpowered on release (and still kind of us, though less so)
Then there's [Dies in Spanish] who's maybe good if you're in a master comp game where everyone perfectly communicates with each other but that shouldn't be a necessary aspect to play a character.

>>387210093
>Sombra is actively bad
Showing your gold there buddy. There is a reason she's the least chosen character, but consistently picked in the top tiers. Shitters can't use her.

>>387200415

I hit master in less than 20 games
Step it up

>>387210087
>top 4%
All you have to do is get the wins to that number, everyone can do it

>>387210331
>There is a reason she's the least chosen character, but consistently picked in the top tiers. Shitters can't use her.
then she's objectively a bad design as a character

Lucio ball was never good

>>387200415
It was just as bad last year, except people could stand behind the goalie and boop him for cheap goals. Lag was as insufferable as it is now, the netcode was just as bad. You're just remembering it through nostalgia glasses.
I'm Master in compio.

>>387200415
It's literally no different than last year. You're just retarded and incapable of remembering things clearly being a few months.
The game mode has always been a joke completely controlled by latency.

Just delete competitive from this game for all modes forever. Everyone would be happier.

>>387202347
You unlock an item after every match, or after every won match.

>>387210948
You called a character who is consistently used by the best players "objectively" bad, when that is clearly evidence that she just takes more skill than casuals can handle.

>>387211115
>when that is clearly evidence that she just takes more skill than casuals can handle.
and guess what? 99.99% of the players are "casuals"
if you make something shit but defend it by saying that 0.01% of your playerbase can maybe make it not shit, it's shit

>>387211206
If that .01 is the top tier players, then that isn't the case. Just because you're bad doesn't make her "actively bad"

>>387211257
>If that .01 is the top tier players, then that isn't the case.
Yes, it is. If almost the entirety of your player base can't do something then it's a bad design.

>>387206459
Lower rendering scale to 50%. It's like playing on console, without the shit input.

>>387202818
Do we have confirmation that lucioball runs at 20 ticks? Because that'd explain a lot of missed boops.

literally wot

It is not wrong to have a high skill cap, hard to use character. It adds depth. And hell, getting off some high value hacks and controlling important health packs and getting off the fast charging ult, all that can be respectable in middle/lowish ranks like gold.
