Until three days ago I hadn't played Ranked since ... April?

And I play pretty religiously (TW). What a LOT of fun. Of course I instantly plummeted from S to the lower doldrums of A, and swore off the game about a million times, but after a very successful evening "+10.0 On Fire!" in SZs I'm back up to S. I used to only play stages that were my "strengths" but this time I kept an open mind and just played any map, any mode, and I've had a good time. Methinks it's as good a time as any to aim for S+.

I havent played all year but SZ was always the best for me. It helps that it's the most balanced game mode though.

Tower Control is the worst because it's very team reliant for cover. Rainmaker slightly less so because you can get the lucky sneak or rush where the other team is an idiot [Flounder Heights]. Splat Zones is the most solo player friendly due to it being based on camping and strategic attacks on rush points.

I got to S-99...and then I deranked and deranked...

I must say A rank is so much more fun. But then I rank up into S purgatory.

Dude right? If i'm having a bad run sometimes i'm GLAD to derank to A+, because i feel WAY more confident and rack up the splats

Purgatory is exactly what it feels like. But I'll do my penance.
