This thread is for some serious and thoughtful advice on how to win games in the new soloQ games…

I know that I want to give a serious try for a place at the top of the new SoloQ leaderboards.

Top spots will be players who know strategies and who are all about helping their assigned team of strangers to maximize the chances for the win.

You might be teamed with some people who don’t have any experience yet doing anything other than follow a zerg and DPS from range. (Even higher PvP rank, who just farmed hotjoins).

I am sure there are some people with some perceptive thoughts on this and it would be great to hear from them (rather than angry people scoffing that “it’ll be all kittened up anyway, so kitten it”).

Few tips from me!

Basic Tips:

  • Defend the capture points you have!
  • Use the map ping and drawing feature to better communicate with your team
  • Type out in /team when you have incoming and if you might need help

Advanced Tips:

  • Do not push far point if an enemy is contesting it unless it is something you can beat or quickly neutralize.
  • Try to be quick to rezzing teammates who get downed, being fast at that makes a significant impact in the likelihood that player will be revived.
  • Don’t reinforce fights your team has no chance of winning, communicate and regroup!

Good luck, and try to work together!

The roster will be hidden in Solo Q so this doesn’t happen.
