Super simple suggestion. Add a new queue option that doesn’t use the basic algorithm, making completely random team comps, and allowing for multiple of a single hero on a team. Made for those who don’t give a s**t anymore and just want to mess around. 5 abathurs op
This won’t happen as it would further fracture the already limited playerbase.

The playerbase is pretty big in brawl. Instaqueue every time. This would just be like another brawl type gamemode but, in my opinion better.
So why make a mode that is extremely similar to another mode?

Sounds an awful lot like Brawl.
5 abathurs op
Multiple Abathurs on the same team glitches the game out too much so that is no longer a thing.

all abathurs
all abathurs clone one of them, and then this abathur clone the clone of himself
and then the game explodes because it is too much to handle

2 extremly similar element is not the same.
Like a cake vs cake with rat poison. The 2 thing is “extremly similar” but that one little thing changes everything.
damn that makes me sad, they gotta FIX THAT
And honestly @Kazma, yeah it would be super different just from removing the algorithm, let alone the no limits part
Sure. There are 2 differences between OP’s game mode and brawl and there is one difference between WM and the OP’s game mode.
It differs from QM because it allows randomized comps, including duplicates even on the same team
It differs from Brawl because it is played out like a QM and not a one lane Brawl.
It also differs from Brawl because you don’t have a mini draft.
I never said it was the same. I said it was extremely similar to another mode. Which it is. Those small differences matter because why would you want two QM modes where the only difference is one is completely random and one is somewhat more balanced (comp/MMR wise)? All it will do is increase queue times.

My main concern with adding a single other game mode.
They couldn’t even maintain separate ranked queues for HL and TL due to lack of players.

Well, again, I think it would take players from brawl more than the other gamemodes. And brawl tends to be packed to the brim. Instaqueue constantly. So I don’t think it would cause many issues there.
To clear out the confusion: no, they just pair you up with ANYONE from ALL ranks. meaning that in ALL of europe, they cant find 10 people of similar rank. also, this is BLIZZARD. a multi-BILLION dollar company. it is actually in the top richest companies in the WORLD. and its 2 ranks before NINTENDO. so for a game of theirs to not get you 10 equal opponents it is honestly like OOF
edit: oops, apparently its the 662nd richest company in the world, which is , according to forbes, 100 places behind nintendo 
but you GET the point it still IS a multi-billion $ company
Good luck playing as 5 abathurs vs any ither 5 heroes. RIP objectives. Unless you use a slapathur hatted by other 4 vs 5 of them.
4 Abathurs and a Muradin or Uther on the other hand would be OP. Imagine either hero hatted by 4 abathurs at the same time
At the current moment the qm is random. Half year ago people asked the good premade comps. The system was stopped, because a lot of people didnt like it.
If they do this, then the random people will enjoy their own mode. They even could get character duplication. The “good quality match lovers” will like their own mode.
please do not say things like the playerbase halfed. If there is more opption to choose, then there will be a higher pressure to stay at a game. If tomorow the brawl mode will be closed, then the brawl players will stopp playing entirely, or go to the qm. I don’t think all of them will go to the qm.
Nope, even Brawl has suffered from lack of players out of peak times for years.
It is so bad sometimes you are literally the only person queuing besides 1 other human being so you get 8 bots.

This is very telling as unlike any other mode there are no MM restrictions. It just needs people to be queuing for the mode.

Lol it’s so bugged. The Aba can even disappear from map when an aba symbiotes a clone.
Not if they create a completely separate mode. If they were to make duplicate comps possible, they should do it to the current QM. I’m pretty sure there will be more negative feedback than positive if they did it though.
I definitely wouldn’t want it, but that’s just me.
I don’t think so. If they created a new mode its not like its going to be filled with brand new players. It has to be played by someone so people who play other modes will move to that one and by doing that, other modes will have longer queue times. Its basic math.
OP isn’t suggesting the deletion of a mode, but an addition. The addition will pull players from other modes and increase queue times. And if QM is changed to the OP’s QM some people will quit, also increasing queue times.
All I see here is increased queue times. I don’t think the addition of another mode is a good thing for the game right now.
I am a night owl and occasionally use HotS to unwind. I don’t remember being matched with bots for years in Brawl. Not since it basically became ARAM mode. That being said queue can get a bit dicey at times. It isn’t always faster than QM.

I didn’t say it was a “no way” option. I just said it wouldn’t be filled with brand new players. New players will definitely try it but we don’t know how many brand new players there will be in the future. I’m sure it wont be enough to have the OP’s QM mode be full enough for decent queue times. That game mode will have to pull players from other games modes also in order to have enough players. Because of that, it will either be a dead game mode, or make other game modes’ queue times longer.
You can’t pull players out of nowhere. They have to come from somewhere whether it be from current players, new players, or returning players. I’d argue that current player numbers are significantly larger than possible new player numbers and returning player numbers combined.
