No way we could get into the last ring

Whole squad alive vs 1 player from the last standing squad. We died trying to reach the last ring. See picture

Was there any way you could swing around that lip on the bottom left of the map? It's a shame Pathfinder was timed out, that zipline would have came in handy for that situation. 

Positioning is a very important aspect of Battle Royales like this. I see occurrences like this being and overall rare situation for an individual player, but getting to that center of the ring as quickly as possible will help avoid this and give you an advantage of taking shots at other players evading the ring closing in. Hope this advice helps and we appreciate your feedback! Hope that doesn't happen to you again this season.

Good luck.

@EA_Blueberry Of course they could have swung around, but they needed more awareness and done so well before this screenshot was taken.

Some folks are really struggling with this, but situational awareness is one of the things that makes this game great. Everyone needs to pay more attention to the ring.

@EA_Blueberry They also could've used pathfinders passive if there was a survey beacon, which allows your team to rotate early. In this game, you rotate early or you risk dying to those who already rotated

@SkvurrelContrary to what a certain zealot repeats, the only way to prevent this was to play pathfinder and scan 1 of the 2 the beacons that lies at the sout-east of that point, otherwise it was 99% impossible to guess the final closing point, that is the reason why pathfinder is a mandatory pick and this aseveration is easily validated by looking at winrates.

My advice is dont believe to those theoric try hards trying to tell you it was your fault, some people has deep problems with fixing a game when it allows them to * their ego, next time just PICK pathfinder yourself and scan the beacons when the endgame is near, this works in order to counter play the currently wrongly designed map, the original map didnt had much of this issue, but  in the new map it became more common, and this game was clearly designed for fighting, not for pathfinding, if the last one was the case, beacon scanning would be a global skill.
