Is it just me that the game makes sense in Plat and above, but plays in Gold and below are usually harder to expect?
Like when I go against gold or below, I can never get a read on their plays as they keep doing things that don't make a lot of sense, but when it's in plat and above We can expect plays and site executions so we can be prepared to have some kind of counter while in lower ranks it's just random utility spam and W-keying into the site which usually ends in their team flashing or blocking each other.
Another thing that I noticed is the team agent combinations in plat and above are usually balanced while in lower ranks it's just interlocking dualists etc, which might explain the difference in gameplay. ( eg: a lot of solo aggression in lower ranks compared to team co-ordinated pushes in higher ranks )
It's the same thing with comms, Back when I was in silver a few months back nobody would talk, with some games having just another person talking. While in higher ranks I get more people who are actually willing to communicate and give information for trades etc.
I feel like if players started to actually communicate and work together, the Elo hell known as silver won't be as tedious to soloque out of. What do yall think?
