I tried Premier during Season 1 and returned to give it a go again in Season 4, had some shitty placement matches and got put into the mental torture chamber that is sub-5K ELO Premier.
It's filled with smurfs, people that play like they're CS2 newborns despite tending to have at least a few hundred hours, hightards, throwers (had some dipshit throw because a teammate shittalked his anime avatar, we won despite his retardation), ragequitters, people that don't take the mode seriously despite it being THE competitive mode, people that refuse to follow simple orders to create neccesary coordination, shittalkers who bring down team morale / performance, etc etc etc as said in my prior post.
I started at sub-5K ELO in Season 1 and it was understandable at the time since I was in all regards a noob, yet in Season 4 (because Premier seems to be entirely win / loss based and I got unlucky with my placement matches as a damned solo queuer) I started at a
LOWER ELO than Season 1 despite having improved immensely in every aspect (for reference I started at Silver 2 when first playing Wingman last year, currently placed at GN3 which would in theory place me around 10K ELO in Premier). It's a joke of a mode and I'm stuck in a struggle session with my ELO rank where it feels like
I'm here forever, always
+100 ELO -100 ELO.
It's a glorified slot machine as a solo queuer that wastes my time instead of money, just an utterly miserable experience that drags down further development in my understanding of the game.
All I wanted was a color coded badge to show off.
