Right now I am in the upper plat area but a couple of seasons ago I use to be in the high gold lower plat area. I know what you are going through... you are getting placed with people unwilling to switch of a character even though they arent the best at them. No matter how much you yell at them I promise you that they will mostly likely continue to play that character to spite you. What I would recommend you do is find a hero you are good at and main them. You will be getting a lot of elms in your matches if you are good as that hero and will be doing better than most of your team. I recommend…

At the beginning of season 4 I was 2719, but then i dropped to 2500, and now i'm 2300. I main Zarya and i do really well with protecting my team and coordinating my ult. I usually end up with 2 or 3 gold medals. I try to tell my team to switch of useless characters like a torb on attack or to get another tank or healer but no one will listen.Can someone give me tips to rank up?
