I mean I get that we have to practice heavy lifting in these games but man its like a weight was marked 35 and it turned into a 45.

Sometimes you just get matches where:

TEAM TOO HEAVY TO CARRY

When you get:

  • The feeder
  • The flamer
  • The person who refuses to group up
  • The person who clearly has no idea how to play their hero
  • Etc.

Can’t do much about it. If you’re in a good mood, educate them. If you’re in a bad mood, tell them to go back to beginner AI.

that happens a lot it seems. just recently i had a Guldan game. i was literally the only dps it seemed. you would think i was Atlas trying to hold the team up. some times its just not possible.

Yeah I would say about 5% of games you are absolutely going to lose, and 5% of games you could AFK all game and still win. I try to just do my best and brush off those unwinnable games. Still frustrating tho.

He was just asking a question. Didn’t say he was gonna do it.

In context, I think any native english speaker who has HotS drafting knowledge would interpret it as they would support if needed. AKA, anyone on these forums should get it.

Feelsbad. Especially at those ranks.

Got some people I’ve met playing who are Bronze who are willing to begrudingly take support if needed. Granted, when I play with them (URD mostly, rarely TL) I tend to fill what we need.

It’s like when a dude’s gonna go out with a girl and she asks, “Hey, do you want me to wear the red or blue dress tonight?” Dude says, “pls blue.” And then when they finally meet up that night, dude sees her in the red dress and says, “? you offered ??.” She replies, “nope, I only asked.”

You can be silenced/banned for telling that.

I’ve said worse to people and nothing has happened to me yet.

Part of it is an experiment because people claimed they were banned for “I was only toxic once”. I suspect those people were extremely toxic and/or over a long period of time.

Can I see a picture of the ending screen of that match.

You can get silenced if you are toxic once but you use chat often and that one chat line will justify your penalty and false reports for normal chat add up to reach the auto-ban threshold, just like you can avoid penalty if you don’t use chat often but when you do you are extremely toxic.

I know that “play vs ai” can make you banned because these lines were specifically used against me when I tried to appeal a silence penalty in the past. Obviously it’s not a valid reason to silence someone but since it was the most toxic thing I said they used what they had to uphold the penalty :smiley:
