The Edging arc was my personal favorite part of the video, with the way he grew and changed as a player due to Edging's obsession grinding away at his stamina was just so perfectly timed and it never went over the edge to be unbelievable.
Fun fact ow2 is more laggy than ow1. I used to be able to hit a constant 20ping and 20 var but now both are 21-25ish. But my connection has stayed the same. I was hoping this would be addressed at some point but it has not been.
@@Flowerlytdm Nah, but it has caused me so many unnecessary deaths in my games, because on my screen I would see my ability go off, but then it hasn't registered in the game yet :)
One of the greatest things is seeing Smurfs getting rolled in lower ranks simply bc they get too cocky for their own good. You love to see it. And you just love seeing them blame their own teams for their sloppy af mistakes 😂
@@zenitsuyaboi9879 I don't even play anymore and I did like six games of comp in my life when I did but yes I did place Plat when I did, that was the second season of OW lol
It was a long time coming, hope you guys enjoy the video and please let me know any criticism on the video, really trying to make the best stuff out there.
This game needs smurf and troll queue, obviously without telling the player they landed in one. People which do challenges like that risk looses for other players.
most smurfs arnt top500 so your team can counter them pretty well with focus comp. also 5 stacking in lfg helps with seeing cheaters and smurfs because you go up against other groups who most likely arnt either
congrats on the really hard challenge, but I don't see why you shit talk your teammates when you're in low ranks? you're smurfing and you're way better then them so you shouldn't be shit talking them
yeah im never actually toxic to others, i only flame others when they can't hear me. also the fact that he's nice to enemy mercys, as a mercy main, i appreciate people who dont immediately kill us
The hardest OW challenge is actually the full sweep, in GM/Top 500. Win a game with every hero once each; losing once resets and you have to start over. (You can make it easier by giving yourself 'extra lives', but then its no longer the hardest challenge!)
@@MistaWap idk man. I basically get a confirmed 'yeah, they were cheating' email for almost all of my reports. I'm not the greatest player, but I can spot someone who has a level 1 account with no hours on it playing at the skill of a GM. If you haven't been in bronze recently, you should reconsider if it is, or is not, a problem and whether you have enough bronze experience to truly confirm your thoughts.
@@SoWhom Nah, like once or twice a night and then the next day I get "a report you submitted involved actions against another player's account. Please keep reporting to keep our community safe blah blah" and this is of course after watching match replays and literally watching these shmucks aim at me through walls.
Holy shit. What an insane challenge. Big oldschool ow vibes. You almost made me feel passionate about the game for a second there. Also, I almost forgot about how they turned the only thing I loved in this world into a smoothed out non-interactive fake winston abomination tank creature. Would like to have some nice masters dps battles again (I loved to shut down widows like the one you had issues with back in the day). Usually the most fun part about Overwatch now is finishing the session earlier and calling it a day. Maybe I need to stop finisihing early. Maybe I’ll upgrade my monitor and try edging.
36:00 It's one or two guys deranking to smurf. I used to do this with a duo who could run multiple accounts at once. It's better than ruining a random teammate's game.
I just wanted to say that youre super underrated! Your content is really entertaining and youre a great player! You have been gaining like 1000 subs a day lately. Keep up the good work man!
24:25 so when other people blame their loss on their team its because they are ass but when you blame the loss on your team it's because they really were at fault?
probably because hes high ranked and thinks they made the mistakes, but tbh as a higher rank he made less mistakes than his team. doesnt mean he didnt make mistakes tho
And here, we see a wild tank player in his natural habitat, these types of players are a rare species, as nearly all of them have died out due to the apex predator “zenyatta” and the invasive species “kiriko” as well as the parasitic “bastion” and “mercy”.
A refined bit similar challenge might I suggest. Same goal but if you die as a hero in game, they are "dead" for that game. If all heros in your role are "dead" you must spin a wheel with every hero on it and permanently remove the selected hero. Loosing a game will have the same effect, rolling the wheel and permanently "killing" that hero. More chaos per game, and more stress to stay alive. Likely will be much more challenging, but thats just in theory. Until it is in practice i cant truly know.
Crazy you said other people were smurfing when they were just playing a different role on the same account yet you literally created a new account and the way you constantly trash talked your teammates for no reason and then boasted when getting plays as if you weren’t playing with players ranks below you
If anyone say "you cant be hardstuck because of your tram, play better" they instantly lose the right to complain about teammates forever in every game
they argue rigged matchmaking doesnt exist but it increasingly makes your games harder for no reason like exponentially underdogging u until rank reset
just seeing how much a top 500 player is struggling in plat makes me realize we need a FULL rank reset to get rid of some smurfs and more importantly boosted players out of those ranks
He lost one time in plat when the whole team was countering his pick on a hero he doesn’t even play? I wouldn’t say he was struggling until like masters
"it was more difficult even though it was a lower rank" Its mostly because alot of gold players who deserve to be higher are trapped there becauae of bad team match ups.
EU lower to mid teir ranks (and tbh low masters too) arent nearly as high skill as NA and APAC just because there are significantly more comp players in those 2 regions
man. this is an amazing idea and video! is there anywhere i can watch the full vod of the entire climb? I think this is an unique chance to see one of the best players at the game truely try his hardest in every single game until his goal. something most unranked to top 500 tend to miss imo.
@@CptJayF I'm thinking of doing a version where instead of being able to choose my heroes, I spin a wheel before every game to decide the hero I play, I could consider a DPS one but I think that'd just be easier because there are more heroes
I think I ran into edging in a quickplay lobby recently and he absolutely cleaned house as widow and cass which is pretty funny cause I generally get playinum players and if this masters player somehow got placed in a plat level quickplay lobby then it would explain a lot.
the point u were saying about play players blaming their team for losses is kinda nuanced. On one hand ur right they aren't playing perfectly, but on the other, you, a literal top 500 player, lost in a plat lobby against other plats. Sometimes it doesn't matter how good you are, your team can throw so hard u just lose anyways.
@@kraandop the viewing experience made it seem like at least the way it was edited that you were annoyed by the smurfs, thx for clarification but I still find it weird lol
These types of challenges aren’t really as hard as they want you to think considering the majority of the ranks they’ll basically be Smurfing since they are gm players anyway.
Game sense is absolutely a factor but I'm noticing a weird trend with high rankers in ow. They almost always have less than 50 ms of latency so you noticing lag at that amount is very interesting. Then theres hanzo top 500 players rocking 150ms
The lag I was pointing out wasn’t the 50 ping, it was the IND that was spiking up I was noticing. It’s different type of lag, makes people skip all over the place
Being hard stuck isn't because you aren't playing perfect. It's because your team is worse than the enemy team, even if you're the best player in the match
New tank challenge: Every death, take a shot. Every ability that gets value on you, take a shot. Every solo ult, take another shot. Every time you queue tank, take a shot.
Basically what i deal with all the time and yet when im close to ranking up its like they suddenly become retired ow pros and just roll my entire team including me

*rolls through first 5 games (only loses once)*
*gets plat 2*
honestly I'm shocked you got that high
It's not about winning or losing but about against whom. If you have only wins but against lower MMR opponents, don't expect a higher rank.
