I have always been a die hard fan of Swat. I love the pace of gameplay and the challenge of cracking off a perfectly clean headshot in a split second before the other guy can zero in on your face. I’m currently ranked Onyx, and have spent the last few days comfortably in the 1700-1800 range. However, I’m getting really frustrated with how often my team fills up with unraked players. Today I quickly dropped from 1780 to 1560 because game after game after game I had 1 or 2 unraked teammates with under 6 kills and well over 15 deaths. The majority of my games I not only lead my team by a significant margin, but I lead the whole match. I typically had 3+ kills over the other teams best player. Yet there was no way to compensate for how bad these unranked players were.
I feel that Onyx is too high for unranked players to join. I only want to see other Onyx, diamond, and maybe the occasional platinum. I don’t have ridiculous hopes of going pro and feel like they’re holding me back, I just want a fair fight in my league of players. And I can’t imagine it’s fun for an unranked player who is probably around the silver/gold level to get totally obliterated by a team of mid-high level onyx players.
