If you're not good enough to consistently be winning your 1v1's, don't take on 1v1's
Stick to your teammates, do not play aggressively proactively, only if your teammates are clearly good and need you to play aggro with them, otherwise just play normally.
These past few weekends I have witnessed tons of players either playing too aggressively against clearly better opponents and instantly dying, or playing too passively and not pushing with us when we are, costing us the round.
Even if you are solo Q'ing, do not play as if you were alone. Learn to adapt to your random's playstyle, because you are relying on them to win.
Also, for the love of God stop running into the strand clone. I have witnessed TONS of players actively run into my clone and get punished for wanting to ape with a shotgun in hand.

I agree, Its hard to compete against adept weapons but i have and won with team play. The biggest frustration is being matched with players who have little or no experience. Armor or weapons without mods . But as long as a player *me with a .6KDA get matched with someone worse than me or same against a flawless team will always prevent me from getting past the 5 win mark. I did help a player go flawless this morning, and then lost every game after that.
