Call of Duty: Mobile is a first-person shooter game published by Activision and Tencent. The game is based on the trendy PC and Console Call of Duty Series and features extremely intense fights, Gunsmith customization, and cameos from various storyline characters. The game has a challenging skill curve and is hard to master.
Call of Duty: Mobile also has a Ranked Game Mode where you lose or win a certain number of Elo points after each match. Ranking up gives you access to more exclusive rewards and is a testament to how skillful you currently are at the game.
With every consequent patch of Call of Duty: Mobile, the professional players define the 'meta' every time. The meta for each patch is what the best players of the game are playing and using. Usually, players tend to keep using their favorite Gun or Loadout repeatedly throughout many patches. Even though Guns or load-outs are generally not nerfed to oblivion, there are almost always better alternatives that exist if you look out for them. Some guns completely fall out of the meta after just one patch.
Always look at the latest update logs so that you can iron out what guns are not worth it now. For example, the Ak-47 was quite strong for a few patches now but has been taken over by other ARs. While playing the AK is still not bad, you will not be able to compete with anyone taking tabs on the patch notes and understanding the best way to play each loadout more efficiently.
Call of Duty: Mobile is generally an extremely versatile game. Players can be snipers, flankers, offensive or defensive; it is mainly up to them. However, as you start ranking up, you will soon realize that having a particular role that you know you are very good at can come in extremely handy.
As soon as players start ranking up, they start diversifying their roles and gameplay style to incorporate different strategies. While doing these mix-ups is fun, it will hinder your rank quite a bit. Therefore, we recommend that you stick to Unranked matches for all your shenanigans and try to focus only on one role at any moment. Remember to draft your Gunsmith Loadout and Attachments accordingly to maximize your consistently playing a particular role.
There are two random Weekends where you will not be using Elo points in the entirety of the month even if you lose a match. Use this opportunity to grind Ranked matches as much as you can, as it will only lead you to gain more points as it will be impossible to lose any.
Do keep in mind that if your rank gets inflated a lot, there is a high chance you will lose a lot of Ranked Matches as soon as you pop into a normal game. However, ranked matches serve as a great opportunity for you to play against better players and understand what they might be doing and learn from them.
Ranked Game Modes are a lot about Teamwork as well. You need to have a team that can help you up when you are down and one that you can effectively communicate with. Having Callouts and locations called on the map is extremely convenient and can win you the game most of the time. Therefore, we recommend that you play with equally skilled friends in a very open and communicative mindset.
Moreover, playing with friends lets you understand your particular flaws, and you can improve together with your teammates and friends. If you do end up partying, try to play Search and Destroy game modes as they revolve around many strategies and can be easily won with a communicative team even if you have a lower skill cap than the opponents.
Players usually keep playing the game on its Default Settings. Generally, you can always tweak those settings around and gain that extra edge on opponents. Most of the time, you should be able to Flick Shot pretty easily and thus need to be on a higher sensitivity for games like Call of Duty: Mobile.
In most cases, having a low sensitivity can lead you not to shoot players from the corner of your eye, and having an extremely high sensitivity will make your aim extremely inaccurate, especially at longer ranges. Finding a perfect balance is the key to winning matches and ranking up fast in Call of Duty: Mobile.
The Gunsmith feature has recently been added to Call of Duty: Mobile. It lets you customize every single aspect of your gun and lets you tweak it as much as you want to. To unlock every Gunsmith attachment, try to either play with the weapon to increase its XP or use Weapon XP Cards, which are quite abundant in the game.
After unlocking every attachment, we recommend that you look at a particular Gunsmith guide for that gun and copy everything to your loadout. You can then hop into a match and tweak the issues you may find in that build. Generally, we recommend always using Stippled Grip Tapes and Laser Sights as they have almost no caveats with many benefits.
Call of Duty: Mobile has turned into one of the most competitive mobile shooters in the world right now. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that a lot of people are trying to grind Ranked matches to Rank Up. The feeling of getting better at a game and seeing it translate to your rank getting better is quite fun and exciting.
However, most players might get disheartened by the amount they lose before they can start winning. Like anything you are new at, this is a normal process and must not be taken seriously.
