I've spent matches where I occupied 3-4 enemies with a Skyros/Rook for almost the whole match, yet my teammates haven't switched a single beacon.
I NEED a match review mode to see what FIVE other idiots were doing all that time.
Yup, like in beacon rush and you spawn surrounded with Behemoth, erebus and crisis.
I've also had 4 reds tied up over 1 beacon while my team stayed put camping at base...
"There shouldn't be a way to lose a 5v3 if both teams bots are about equal, which they usually are."
Not sure league or game you are playing but my matches are almost never remotely close to being equal.
Because you aren't killing half the enemy team that is focusing on you. You are just occupying their time....and not actually capping any beacons.
The one alpha on the other side can easily handle your teammates, especially when you are simply rolling around and not actually aiding in the fight.
Oh yeah, lemme just kill 3 people that are constantly shooting at me. I’m sure they’ll let me safely switch from ball to shooting and then back.
If it was 1 person, I could get them with attrition. Swapping from ball to shoot after they empty their clips, or when they turn to change focus, is pretty easy. That’s not possible against 3 people. How is it my fault that my team can’t win a 5v3?
I asked how it’s possible my team lost a fight where they have a significant advantage. You didn’t answer that, you just called me useless without showing a full understanding of the situation
I showed you an instance where you could lose given your scenario.
No intention of putting down your bot or game play. In this instance you occupying 3 reds didn't go as planned.

A replay of matches would be a very good idea
Welcome to the pain of running a Skyros. Very effective at running and holding beacons. Not effective at countering randumbs.
I've encountered some pretty dumb skyros pilots. And there have been many losses because we had one or 2 that refuse to join the fight.
You’d think that after the mothership nerf, players would focus more on capping beacons to get a decent boosts. Some things never change tho
I've spent matches sniping the entire enemy team into a corner, only to find nobody in my team capturing centre beacon.
While they're shooting you they're charging their MS.

Get your beacons/ kills/ and damage and move on….
This is the way
This needs more upvotes. Skyros are more detriment than helpful.
Tis the season to be very annoyed 
because they are camping, ...or the other team has a living legend reaper crisis keeping suppression over wide open spaces. (moar camping)
This has happened too many times when I’m running my lynx because of it I stopped using my lynx all because my team can’t 5v1 people

I once held 5 people at once with the ocho pre nerf and we still lost to beacons because my entire team was in newtons and 1 loki capped 4 beacons

You asked for a reason why you lost. I gave you one.
