How to win ranked games 101

[Adm_Andre]

1) shotgun your teammate

2) teammates win the match

3) profit...

 

 

Why does he still ranked up?

I understand that there are occasionally detonations, brain farts or other circumstances, where players leave the match with very limited impact and - because it's a team game at the end - they should still earn the star if the team wins. But in this case? 

 

Keeping a star is already bulls**t, this is:

Scuttling yourself counts as a -1 kill.

Except Asashio dishonors herself by not having the ability to commit Seppuku as a true Nippon would

Take the replay and send it to the Support or one of the community managers here in the forums. That dude will enjoy a few weeks coop only then. As he should.

Dammit! And all the time i did it wrong...i thought i have to try to sink the red ones.

I should have known that since the green ones are usually the dumb incompetent and it always felt better and more satisfying  shooting the green ones.

 

Thx for clearing that up, and while it is too late for me in this ranked sprint - as i ranked out - i will keep that in  mind for the next standard ranked season!

this is just another example that there is some flaws at star system in ranked battle

If it means "sinking yourself counts as a -1kill" well, they told them to sink the ships, Everyone Makes Mistakes!

Anyway, is the upcoming ranked (18 ranks) season going to be with t8s and cvs? this isn't the topic i should use but ok

I had that happen to me too in previous T7 full ranked, it was a Lyon that sunk himself in the start by shooting my bb. We went on to win with one man short. I guess there has been an influx of teenage players. 

[Knutorius]

The last game that got me to rank one was the one where I died after 5 minutes and my team mates carried me to victory.

 

To me, ranked is like a 8vs8 random battle. I don't even know why its called ranked. You're playing against all the other ranks anyway.

So it's more like a endurance mode. With some rewards, or something. (10k coal, *yawn*)

 

also, I don't understand why people need to cite so much..

Ranked (but not tier X) is great. They are shorter matches and always even tiered. Meaning, I get to advance my (many, many) mid-tier ships. So, while the coal is nice, the true bonus is less matchmaking BS.

[Gudgeon]

This mode is the only way to have consistently fair match making........avoid tier 8 at all other times if possible.
