I was playing at Gold around 2100 and see myself as a platinum player for my mechanical abilities, but I often face terrible teammates and struggle when I lose. Even with all gold, my team still lets me down, and now I’m stuck at 1700. I’m good at Pharah, but she needs solid teamwork; once it drops below 2000, it’s nearly impossible. It’s really tough to climb back up and it’s causing a lot of stress. I know I’m not bad, and if you’ve watched my streams you’ll see I’m decent. What should I do to get back to Gold and maintain it? Here are my stats: https://www.overbuff.com/players/pc/Snow...ompetitive

play a character who takes care of themselves. I used to be a Reinhardt around 2400, but my losing streak hit low points near 1800, making Reinhardt feel useless. I shifted focus to DPS roles—Soldier and Tracer—and kept improving. Now I'm at a career high of 2650 or higher. Tracer is the best choice; she’s manageable early on, and once you master her rewind ability, she rarely needs help from others.

I'm quite reliable as a tracker, but when she requires healing, no one ever does. The same goes for the Soldier.

I handle more recalls than anyone I know, but when it’s time to run out, it becomes really frustrating when your healers don’t do anything.

It’s hard to change much, but speaking up in voice chat usually helps. If you’re not getting any help, playing a healer role might be your best option.

Enjoying the activity for its own sake rather than for status reduces tension.

It seems you're suggesting a simpler mode since your skill level might be limited, so we'll go for a quicker game instead.

I began using Mercy and really enjoy it. People value strong healers, and you won’t feel the pressure of only focusing on taking damage.

I used to rely on her, but no one looked after me.
