Its so worth it that i upgraded mine to origins edition about a month in lmao

The ranking system i think is a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy, also. You can't carry a team on your own unless you're absurdly under-ranked somehow, and i know that personally i play a lot better when i have a good team behind me? I'm a support main though so that... Probably has a lot to do with it lol

Anyway I started the season at low gold (2100ish) and floated around in gold for ages, then a few weeks after Sym was buffed when i was confident enough to play her i started ranking up? My aim was to hit platinum (2500) but i've managed to climb to 3005 in about a week and a half, which is completely absurd. I'm at diamond now and according to overbuff i'm in the top 500 Symmetra players in comp. I'm doing pretty well at Zenyatta (who is the other character i main; otherwise its occasionally mercy, zarya or dva) and it's gotten to the point where i'm getting the gold medal for healing as him a fair amount of the time. Which is a little concerning honestly :v

But yeah i'm also finding it interesting how different the tiers are in terms of how people approach the game and being in a team? Its also a lot different to quickplay because people usually try to take the game seriously and communicate/work together. Not always, but more often that qp which is a sniper based hellscape lmao
