idk why you would ever want to try this

I’ll preface this by saying this isn’t a rant or I’m negative about this, but it’s an observation that makes me think the user base of the game is declining overall.

I’ve noticed that over the last couple of ranked cycles, the amount of higher end players is increasing in lobbies across the board. I think a lot of the lobbies that were full of new or casual players are now being filled with the more hardcore players because there’s simply less of the casual players.

I would say I’m a good player. Definitely not the highest tier, but respectable and I win pretty often. Before most lobbies I would either be far and away the best or I would be competing with 1 or 2 other higher end players. The last few months that number has risen exponentially. Usually the lobbies have at least 5-10 legitimately good players. Sometimes if round 3 is a race, it can be a legitimate sweat to qualify. Yesterday I played a Hex-A-Terrestrial where there were still 9 of us alive when the boundary fully closed in, which is unheard of.

Not sure if we have actual metrics to back this up, but it’s just something I’ve noticed. If the game is reaching less of the free to play casual players, I wonder how long realistically it continues.

Last 2 clips were bloopers i just felt like including. hopefuly nobody who learns this route gets in my matches...
