Frags aren’t everything

I noticed a lot of players in the gold rank struggle getting past fragging out to win a game. At a certain level of gameplay, frags become much less significant. Team play is the single most important aspect of the game. Players past platinum and into Diamond will have great aim. You will need to do more than get kills to win those games. Coordination between every agent and communication between each player is integral to winning the match.

This is where the onion can really be peeled back to the many levels of S and D gameplay. Some strategies and agent compositions are just stronger than others. Knowing your role on the team, depending on which agent you lock in, is huge. It’s so much more in depth that just frags.

So if you are that guy who is raging at his team because you are “carrying”, dropping 30 kills, but have provided nothing to assist your team with winning rounds... I encourage you to look deeper into your gameplay. Work with your team and play smarter as a TEAM member.

EDIT: I’m glad this is getting a little attention. I’m hoping some people who needed to read this will look deeper into their own play to grow past the frag wall they are stuck behind

EDIT: Thank you for the awards!
