I played Team Slayer today with a friend. He is a 43 and I´m a 38. We did quite good and I could hold my own against people in the range of 38-48. The problem is that I´m a support player; I put shots inte enemies and try to stay alive as much as possible. I go positive 90% of the games but I never go ~+15. That makes me really dependent on if my teammates are able to hold their own in games since I cant carry them.
should i keep the role as a support player or is it worth taking the time switching over to the main slayer role?
Second question:
My support player role works really good on maps like Snowbound and High Ground because I have some sneaky places to stay at and I´m always having escape routes. The problem is when I play narrows, I´m only having two options when I push from the spawns. I´m always getting trapped somewhere and I´m not having any really good escape routes.
How do I run this map? any concrete tips would be really nice.
For example: I had huge problems with construct, I was always pushing through open or closed lobby from gold when I was trying to break their lobby setup which most often resulted in me being killed. then I discovered how useful top mid is, I could trap people in lobby when teammates push any of the sides and I could use the bubble shield when I´m one shot.
hopefully someone understands my messy foreign late night post.

I usually take the slayer role unless it's social. You don't want to risk your rank on randoms. [Edited on 10.31.2012 4:24 AM PDT]
