Ranked Que Time Feedback

800s for HL and 500s for TL. I think we need to just get rid of TL and allow HL to be played in groups. The people that play HL are so scarce that we get the same players every 20 minutes, and that wouldn’t be a problem if they all didn’t suck, but they do. It’s frustrating getting 17 kills and 1 death every game with your teammates making up for all the good you do with their feeds.

All I want to do when I get out of a bad game is reque to get into a good one, but here’s the next issue:

The teams aren’t mixed up enough, and I’ve gotten the same guys in a row many, many times. It doesn’t feel very fair, and while I know QM isn’t dead, HL makes the game feel dead. It’s always the same people you’re winning with, and it’s always the same people you’re getting stomped with.

Solo only HL was a great idea, don’t get me wrong, but it isn’t so great with a lack of players playing both ranked modes. It’s like they’re leeching players off each other. That’s only a hypothesis, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it were true.

Solutions:

  • MUCH better rewards for ranked. Add rewards during the season, with a big reward at the end. Right now, it feels like you play for nothing but bragging rights. I know I am not alone when I say I use the ranked mounts on 1 to 2 heroes, and all the other portraits you make are better than the ranked ones.

  • Mix HL and TL again so the 800+ wait time becomes at least 300, at least until more people are playing ranked again to where the que times aren’t more than 200 secs.

  • Hurry with the PBMMR fix (please, I’ll love you forever).

no…
the only players you would attract with this are those that don’t care about their rank anyways, the current rewards already cause this,
if you ask some people why they play ranked but don’t care about winning many will tell you because ranked offers better rewards for the exact same gamestyle.

I think we should just get rid of Unraked draft. Considering the amazingly wonky matchmaking in TL, which gives great credibility to HL MM. TL is really just Unraked Draft with rewards and a rank.
