Buying lots of new mechs really tanked my PSR. Haven't been tier 4 for years.
I understand you very well. And I sympathize with you.
Since the moment the PSR dropped to tier 3 in the summer of 2020, I still cannot gain a foothold at tier 1. I have already climbed it several times, but I always roll back. I am now half way to tier 1, even though I was at tier 1 last week. Why? There are several reasons:
1) I set myself the goal of having at least one mech from every chassis in the game. To put it mildly, not all mechs in the game are effective. There are many bad mechs among them.
2) I set myself one more goal: to pump all the mechs in my garage.
Is it worth explaining what it is like to earn 72,800 experience points on ineffective mech?
3) PGI made an ingenious decision to combine solo and group queues in a quick play.
4) At the same time, the PGI abolished the matchmaker. Now this misunderstanding can only recruit the required number of players for the match. Without balancing teams by tonnage and players level.
I had some notable fights yesterday. Among them is the drop, in which my team had one assault, and the opposing team had five. And another drop, in which my team did not have a premade, we had two assaults, and the opposing team had a pre-made of 228 and JGx and five assaults. And so, you go out on an ineffective and unpumped mech against a team with a strong premade, which also have a large number of assaults. The result of such battles is easily predictable. Gg PGI.
Therefore, it is impossible to conduct every match in such a way that the level of the RPS goes up.
I think that 80% of all the games I've played is defeat.
