Finally! After a lot of sweat and tears, I did it

First time hitting GM! :smile:

Took me a few weeks to climb because I was stuck between 3500 and 3700 but then this season climbed to 4k with 68% WR as mostly Lucio (6 hours played). The fun part is that my main is stuck at 3700 too for the past 2 months and I have horrible stats with Lucio eventho I play the exact same way.

For a bit more background, I started season one at rank 59 (which was basically high plat), then was stuck for a year in plat with a few drops in gold, at this point I was always flaming in game and I was never questionning myself. Took a break for a few months. Came back and started climbing a little bit but I was still stuck between high plat and mid diamond. At that point I bought an alt to practice dps, then another one for tanks and lastly another one for hitscans specifically. After a ton of practice, watching guides, learning from the OWL and playing a lot I finally started to climb. Hit Master a few weeks later and I stayed there for a few months and after all this, GM.

So to all those saying their teammates are bad or the smurfs are preventing them from climbing, I’m the proof that it’s possible to get better and climb, it takes time and dedication.

I would have personally gone over the top super villain type rant like

“Lowly pathetic mortals you may now grovel before me and the glory of my new overwhelmingly high competitive rank MO HA HA HA HA HA HA! …”

That way you have protective self irony built in yet you can still brag about your achievement…

It’s a useful tactic for shutting up annoying smart asses who are ever present and ready to jump on the unwary and unprepared.

Also it never hurt to take an attitude in life where you don’t take yourself too seriously… people who take themselves too seriously is typically what sarcasm is for… because well ultimately the world is an absurd place…

So sarcasm certainly has it’s place in the world.

IRL I don’t take myself seriously, I make fun of myself all the time, on the other end online my sarcasm radar is broken, if you don’t add Kappa I always think the person is just being an a** :frowning_face:

It’s fine, no need to make a super villain type rant, I’ll just play on my smurf in gold and prevent as much people as I can from climbing :smiling_imp:

And get reported for gameplay sabotage and banned :slight_smile:

It’s all part of my master plan to destroy the Blizzard servers because too many people report me at once. 200iq

Congratulations! I’m trying to climb my way up there as well.

I agree with you, it’s possible to climb up there yourself but it takes some time and A LOT of patience :slight_smile:

Now that you destroy other people’s games as smurf, I really appreciate. No sarcasm this time.

Well you creating a post for showing that you reached a rank in comp. is just as irrelevant and not needed as his sarcastic reply to it. So i think you are even. :smiley:

It’s the Overwatch official forums I think it’s pretty relevant, anyway I saw your previous posts and you’re just here to troll.

Edit: I’m not looking to have a conversation with you, I heard your arguments plenty of times already.

You disagree with someone so that person is a troll. Nice logic. :smiley:
There is a difference between something being relevant or or just a spam.
Grat to your achievement but honestly…nobody cares. (Oh wait there is a meme for this from Jurassic world. Would fit) :slight_smile:
You know what is relevant on a game forum? Discussing the future of the game, the issues of it and possible ideas which could help the developers to improve it.
So if you are creating a post which is technically a spam, don’t expect from everyone to praise your success. :smiley:

Dunno what arguments you mean and to what topics. But I literally re-visited the forum yesterday for the 1st time since more than a year. So yeah i’m sure you did. :slight_smile:

Yeah you are not hiding with a new smurf account :rofl: ¯\ (ツ) /¯

A new smurf account? My account isn’t new in the slightest. I’ve had Overwatch since day 1. I pre-ordered it, physical edition with the badge and the coin on PC. I took a break roundabout after Eichenwalde came out and haven’t played much since. Other than that I’ve mostly been playing on PS4 because of friends and because the community is less toxic there.

But please. Do go on making insane lies up to distract people from your glaring hypocrisy and idiocy. In fact, find a emoji to tell us how you feel rather than using the emoji that looks like everyone’s faces when they look at you. Perhaps find one that visually represents your mental illness and your lack of medication.

Yeah. You’re on all the wrong kinds of drugs.

Also, you have no proof. Because A: It’s not true. And B: If you did, you’d present it here. But oh wait. You haven’t.

Enjoy your drug-fueled paranoid hallucinations, and have a good day/night :smile:
