I am Nova 4 but keep between MG1 and Nova 4. ( Dependant on whether or not I rage quit after I get a full russian team. )

I hate the rank update, I was so close to getting DMG

BJP

The rank update was good. I was LEM before update now I'm supreme. If you deserved DMG you would have stayed it or gotten it back by now. Plus it has spread out the players to a point where every rank is populated whereas before, not all ranks had people there. Only problem now is that cheating is very prominent in higher ranks. Little tip as well, never solo queue. I got DMG solo but that itself was very hard, since being at least a 3 queue it has been much easier to rank up.

People who use "polish and russian team" as an excuse are just bad and want an excuse to hide that fact. most of my friends on steam are polish and russian and are smfc/global, personally im japanese living in sweden, what does nationality have to do with skill in a video game? stereotyping is pretty sad too. you're the rank you're because you deserve it, same applies to everyone.

I think one of the problems with this stereo-typing is that there is a language barrier. Both Eastern and Western Europeans are guilty of being difficult. Russians tend to troll British people if they criticize them and vice versa. Causes conflict and the team doesn't work. Best thing to do is to not call people shit and just stay positive. Teammates can be an excuse in some cases but really you should queue with friends or people you know who are decent. Although I must say, at supreme, well from my experience people don't take criticism well and trolling does occur a lot. Not to mention the influx of cheaters.

I dont mind what nationality a person is.

But 90% of the time the Russian and polish community are extremely toxic and refuse to listen.

I have played with a diverse range of people but when it comes to the CIS region i generally have the sense that I am gonna have a bad game due to the harsh culture compared to my own. Its alot easier to get along with a spanish, english dutch team than a full russian team.

The language barriers in the europe servers make it near impossible to communicate sometimes.

BJP

I totally agree but there are some exceptions. I feel like UK servers are needed and maybe have Russian servers. This would alleviate some of the tensions between games.

Ironically i find dutch spanish germans the hardest to play with and have an all round good fun game with, not because i'm personally attacking or being attacked, just in general, i think it's how you see things and the way you communicate as a person determines what kind of response you get.

Just to clarify i wasn't attacking the OP with my post it was just a general rounded opinion. I don't know about others but i play video games for fun and to chill, i normally mute everyone when i play solo if i feel they aren't helping the situation etc.
