    Sure, you did the most damage on your team. Congratulations, but sadly damage isn't everything :(. In fact, I watched the replay of this battle, and while some players on your team were caught doing stupid things which is likely the biggest cause of your team losing, you yourself did not help as much as that results screen may show. Using 3 mortars, and triple torpedoes, how can you expect to dish out meaningful damage focused on a single target? You can't, instead your setup is more likely just dish out a bunch of random, less helpful damage to everyone. I'm not saying that is bad, but I'd take 5k damage focused on one enemy rather than 10k spread across 3 players, especially against a team with fixer(s). I counted you using your blast cannon only a single time, which was a little disappointing considering that is your strongest weapon if used properly. Now its pretty obvious the blast cannon, on average, does not do as much damage in a match as your fire bomb, but like I said earlier, damage focused on a fixer or a low health enemy is much more important.

    Also, you decided to stick back and play it safe pretty much the whole match. I didn't see you take hardly any damage, probably less than 2k the whole game. You might think this is a good thing, but it really isn't. You want to try and spread out the damage for your teammates as much as possible, and if they press up to attack, you usually want to also attack (even if you think they're stupid for it).

    He's not saying that its all your fault, he's giving you tips for next time. :)

    And to be fair, he had some good advice.

    Nonono, it's not all your fault, not at all. I'm just saying it isn't as black and white as "this player did more damage, so he did better". To be fair as well, that one shooter kinda just suicided into the enemy team (not a ton u can do about that). Which is rough, I get it, but it happens and you gotta learn how to play with that. I just wanted to offer some advice, take it or leave it.
    I even said "some players on your team were caught doing stupid things which is likely the biggest cause of your team losing, but ...."

    Their fixers. Did you see how much they healed between them? The fact is, your team lacked any teamwork. Nobody focussed on the fixers, who were literally pivotal to the win, and everyone focussed on the shooters. Fact is, as an artillery class shooter, you HAVE to command your team, and LOCK targets on the important targets. If they have two fixers, you can use your firebomb to space them apart, then take them out with your trusty blast cannon separately while they cannot heal each other. Your tritorpedoes are NOT an offensive tool, they are crowd control. Use them to separate stragglers from the pack.

    Plus, the match was pretty fair, from the firepower perspective. Many of my matches go like this. Many of @00starlord00's matches go like this as well.

    With strategy, there are few matches you can lose.

    I'm telling you to command more. No need to be all sarcastic about it. We try to help you, and you respond with salt.


    Well, I'm out.

    You seem very focused on that 26,000 points. The bottom line is your team lost... 26k points or not. I didn't watch the replay but if you in fact hid behind a rock lobbing mortars the whole time then nobody is impressed with all your damage. It's not that different from just being a floater.
