I think, given these are your scores since the leaderboard has gone up, you're performing worse then you think you are.

Solo kills, savior kills and KMDDs are counted for much more than raw damage. Its possible to have quite a few solo kills in a match and go up or neutral on a loss with a lot less than 600 damage.

Assuming his 600 average damage assertion is true (doubtful but lets close our eyes and pretend) the only way he wouldnt have been catapulted out of tier 4 by now is if his damage is extremely sloppy. Like Lrm boating levels of sloppy, spread over every component possible and having very little meaningful impact on the enemy. 1.5 kdr is piss freaking poor for 600 average damage. Piss poor. Like cesspit of tier 5 poor. My black widow with 495 average damage over 54 matches has 2.9 kdr. With those damage numbers he should be killing and winning a lot more.

Im gunna hit tier 3 tomorrow with about 460 ish matches but i have no interest in what people consider meta builds or godlike mechs and play only what interests me and not all my mechs perform as well. Sometimes i suck balls while tinkering with builds or learning a chassis so my net gain is much lower. I still average 2.0 kdr with much less damage than he claims and my overall w/l varies widely from mech to mech.

P.S. my version of sucking balls is about 1.2-1.5 kdr and negative w/l with about 300 ish average damage. All my early stuff like ebjs and shc b and locust 1v is around there. I started clan then got bored and sold all my clan and did a huge romp in inner sphere for a few hundred matches and eventually came back to clan a much better player.

PSR does one thing. It keeps the elite try hard types from seal clubbing the new seals without having to make a new account. Thus making mwo slightly more accessible to new players.

QFT. Thats the one and only thing it does.

I find it hard to believe you average 600dmg in a Raven (or any chassis) and are still only Tier 4. Your PSR wouldn't drop at all in losses and it would skyrocket in wins. Averaging 600 is good for an assault, much less a 35 ton light.

Last year I started a new account and went from T4 to T1 in a couple months. I don't think I came close to averaging 600 damage.

This! I also smell a big pile.
Look up your stats of the 3L (and post them if you wish)

Edit: Leaderboard does not say anything. If you always have 600dmg as claimed, you always rise like a rocket.

I would advise on the contrary, focus on dmg. As somebody who got from tier 4 to tier 1 since the PSR was introduced, I couldn't not notice the tier bar starts skyrocketing when you start to get "=" on lost games regularly and decent dmg on won ones.

There will always be wins and defeats, but when your psr does not drop on defeats anymore, you'll really see that bar filling.

yes you need cheesy builds preventing - in case of loss yet killing efficiently to make most of your matches a win sicne this nearly always is a +

I said 600 as an average. I usually get 800-1k damage in my Raven.
But there are times I get roflol stomped and barley clear 250

If your an assault and not punching above 600, something is wrong.

I score in the 700s constantly with my riflemen.
8-1.1k in my kdk 1 and 2
And always above 900 in my kd3


There are times I do bad, but I do good way more often. Consistently the best damage dealer per drop.

sry but this is wrong, the bad PSR system makes many skilled pilos underrated because they lack the hundrest of matches needed to climb, that is why you can have high scores. an assault is not doing it wrong when below 600dmg, that cna only happen in bad matchups where skills are badly. Imagine a match with only 24 assaults all the same person, they weuld not even in theory be able to get 600 score each.

it still doesn'T skyrocket, it still crawls ratehr slow even with 600dmg.
