    Why are noobs being placed rank 18+?

    I got the game two days ago because I was interested in the game during release, but hesitant because of all the balancing issues I heard being prevalent. After hearing that everything was being rebalanced I was excited and bought the game. Two days into multiplayer I know I'm nowhere near good. I also know that within two days of playing every player I have gone against are rank 15 or up and are either infinite locking me at Valkyrie, Shinobi, and Centurian. It's become very frustrating and when practicing against arena bots I'm seeing these level 3 bots doing the exact same combos. I learned to do alright in a 1v1 against these infinite loops, but nobody is playing brawl or duels so now everyone just ganks or waits on ledges to leap on people in Tribute or dominion. And I'm too scared to go onto elimination because I'm afraid I am just going to be stun locked by three people guard breaking me in a circle... again.


    TL;DR how come noobs are going against infinite combo tricks not even a week into play?

    Unfortunately this game is easy to learn and very difficult to master. It's hard to come into the game as a beginner. Just like any online game, the matchmaking isn't perfect and you will have to play with people who are better and have better gear. You just have to push through if you want to be more competitive. I would try to find some better players to play with and help give you some advice. There's also some great content on YouTube that could help.

    could be that those players have low skill so thats why. also i think its kinda tough love for you, i got my *** kicked a solid week when i started for this same reason but it made me a stronger player faster!! just have to deal with the noob stomping for a while!
