I have pretty bad luck with getting shit teams and it's things out of my control. Like in Overwatch people will just got for their "main" instead of actually try to make a well balanced team. It'll be like "pretty much the entire team is tanks and you don't have a healer" or "it's all assault and no tanks or healers." Nobody is willing to switch except me and then I try to play Mercy in a poorly balanced team even though I can't play Mercy for shit but someone has to try at least, then they'll proceed to get on their mics and bitch me out for not doing a better job as Mercy or for picking a healer in the first place when we're getting our asses handed to us without one.

At that point the game itself is literally saying 'hey dumbasses, you all made a shit team" but everyone else is like nah we'll be fine then bitches when we lose.


Overwatch is difficult because of the tilt factor. Generally speaking, you don't want to rock the boat with teammates. And generally, people won't take orders or commands from others. Your best bet is to try and get them to come to the conclusion. Offer them a soft suggestion and then their input on one of your intended changes.

"Hey guys, do you think we have enough tanks? I'm thinking of switching off DPS to play healer. Who do you guys think would be a good tank for our team?"

That'll usually get someone more willing to switch rather than being like, "Genji, switch off."

Also, it's a numbers game. As long as your win rate is greater than 50% and you don't play on tilt, you'll climb in ranked. If I lose 2 matches in a row, I stop playing ranked for that session. No exceptions to my rule.

You can win ranked matches with subpar compositions. I've won games in plat with all DPS and a single healer before. If you kind of "let" yourself play in poor team comps and try and have fun with it, you'll be surprised how many of them you'll win.

If not, recognize that literally everyone has the "disaster" teams where everyone is at each other's throats. The goal to climbing ranked in that game is to have less of those than your opponents, and that requires a positive attitude. Negativity is cancer to a team.
