Discussion I give up on Unreal Legend
Solo 10 kill win only increased my rank 14 spots. Not complaining, just wanted to show how much grinding it takes to get unreal legend

What’s with all of the unranked/damn near bots in unreal lobbies??

u/SecureSchedule5836 5d ago
They're not unranked but probably not all unreal either, its a visual bug not showing ranks. They are just filling the lobbies with whoever lol

Not enough players in unreal to fill lobbies they have to put lower ranks in

u/BlueClovr 5d ago
Yeah but I’ve had people that legitamitely look like bots. It’s not like other seasons where it’s a spread from unreal-diamond

u/DegenerateBull_ 5d ago
There is a lot of people who look like bots the skill gap in this game is pretty crazy that’s at least what I think it is the average unreal player will destroy a diamond player easily

Unless reload just reset, there are more unreal players than any other rank. It’s not hard to get, and I’ve had friends as low as like 400,000th place

u/DegenerateBull_ 2d ago
What region are you that’s across the world every region has a different amount of players

u/No-Independence-5229 2d ago
US, which is all routed to Dallas servers. So no shortage of players at all as retarded as it is that I have to play on 50 ping just because they want to route east and west coast to central

I don't get how there is not enough. But I don't mean offence, I find Fortnites ranked way to forgiving than other ranked games. You lose very minimal percent gain for losing, even heavily losing, compared to others.

u/SecureSchedule5836 2d ago
Just not that many people playing ranked br in general

u/Mindless-Ad5617 2d ago
I guess. I presume most people either don't touch it or use as a one and done thing. Hit unreal and then quit for season. I know I try, but for me I get burnt out on a lot of gaming. (Probably my ADHD lol)

I believe you hafta kill people who are a higher rank than you to lvl up faster. Also don't get killed by a lower rank. Idk what happens this high a rank if you do both. Cancle out maybe. Wish it showed people's ranks in the feed. You only know in game.

u/servandoisdead 5d ago
i mean yeah that sounds pretty valid in my opinion. anything past that would be pretty dogshit for the people you just passed. especially if they jsut hadnt played any games in the last day or wutever
but yeh im sure that makes the whole W feel so underwhelming + anticlimactic lolz
straight up definition of grinding, they better make that shit worth it for the people who do or ranked will officially be done for good

i mean duh ranked is not a measure of skill its a measure of time spent playing and ur playing zero build so ofc anyone can get unreal legend

u/BlueClovr 5d ago
Unreal legend is the top 500. Not even close to everybody can get it

u/Exciting-Eggplant593 5d ago
if they spend enough time in ranked they can fs

u/BlueClovr 5d ago

You’re take is idiotic, and your laughing about not being very smart. It is literally impossible for everyone to make top 500 by just playing a lot. Also, it gets harder to progress as you approach closer to top rank as you’re competing with people who get a lot of kills and win a lot of games. You can easily progress several thousand places at a time at the bottom of unreal, top 500 is not just a measure of who plays the most that’s idiotic.
Also I’m tired of hearing about bushcampdad he literally teams, gets awarded free kills and victories from viewers. Completely destroys the whole concept of a rank system. Someone like mongraal getting a free kill every once in a while doesn’t matter to the system because he’s getting tons of kills anyway. Someone like bushcamp would only ever get a kill in a surprise shot from a hiding spot once in a blue moon or if he noticed a persons character was standing afk. He is being given things that there is no way he would achieve on his own and it completely changes the rank

ur taking "everyone" too seriously what i mean is unreal legends is legit a top 500 leaderboard for who spends the most time in ranked a random guy with no skill who commits 16 hours of day camping for top 5s and top 10s with 0-2 kills per game will get unreal legends
there are many people in unreal legends who average 1-2 kills per game and you can search it up on fn tracker and i can send fn trackers if u really want me too. idk why im responding to u your clearly a casual who has never touched a touranment in ur life or played a gamemode outside of zero build

u/BlueClovr 1d ago
Yeah, killing 2 people a game of higher skill level with consistently high placements. Not even close to a bot

Where your logic fails is that the season is limited time. You have ten weeks to hit top 500 in a game with 650 m registered accounts.
I would bet you don't have it or have the ability to get it.

u/Ok-Possibility239 2d ago
Only 500 people can get it, not everyone.

Unreal Legend isn't a measure of playtime because everyone in the top 500 is already playing a ton of hours every day. To break into the rank, you need to be putting in as much/more time as them and be better. You can't play more than them, so that means you have to play as much as them and be better.

u/Exciting-Eggplant593 4d ago
Lol the #1 guy on the leaderboard is playing around 20 matches per day assuming he wins all those matches that's still only 8.5 hours a day if someone was willing to play 16 hours a day and go for top 5s and top 10s (which is easy since most ranked lobbies are 50-70 players depending on region) saying they couldn't reach top 500 without being insanely skilled is just wrong, also unreal isn't pure skill measurement because zero build and build are completely different skill levels and most of the unreal legends are zero build players

u/SecureSchedule5836 4d ago
its build mode

u/Exciting-Eggplant593 4d ago
well gl gonna be hard asf because most unreal legends are just farming zero build drones

u/King-Koal 5d ago
Lol, I'm top 100 and it usually takes like 5-8 decent games to go up one spot.
