I made it out of Iron via simply going into deathmatches and Aim Labs and practicing.
I basically focused on three things:
- Deathmatch Cursor placement. I only focused on cursor placement, to hell with the results. Good form over everything else
- Counter Strafing. A real pain to learn but working on it. I'm still not great, but I can at least use it sometimes.
- Aim Labs for tracking and for flicking.
I picked characters that helped the team comp. I mained Cypher, I play a memey aggressive Oman while not out right hurting the team (Got to love those SMG smoke teleports). I never had to pick duelist once. I try to avoid Initiators, I suck as them. I won games without Sage. Don't let those duelists convince you to pick her if you can't play her. If they wanted a Sage, they should have autolocked her themselves.
I played only 1 to 2 games a day, mostly just practiced. This is the best I've ever done.
I only lost one ranked game, unfortunately it's so long ago I couldn't capture it.
The moral of the story? Practice makes perfect. I know there is a lot of BS in lower ranks in terms of AFKs, and dummies rushing lanes on defense, or leaving entire sites clear, but if you're consistent, and practice before you play, work on the essentials, you'll:
- Get less AFKs. Teammates seem to stay when you are doing well.
- Lose less points because you're doing better
- Win more games
- MVP?!?!?
- Profit
I've been playing for 2 months, this is the first FPS game I've played on a computer. Unto Silver?
Ignore the title, I meant no longer Iron lol.
