AutoFill Priority Queues

Any way we can get an Autofull priority queue in competitive? What’s the possibility of this coming to Overwatch? I’m a flex player, but frankly I’m tired of only playing Tank/Support because I don’t have the time to wait 15 minutes to play DPS, as I can only squeeze in 2-3 games a day. I honestly just play a different game entirely if I don’t feel like playing Tank/Support, because I do enjoy playing shooters. The current system severely harms casual competitive players that can’t wait all day to play DPS, and that want to do more than Tank/Support in competitive.

I would love to see a system that helps Overwatch’s competitive ecosystem, as AutoFill priority queue promotes more people playing tank/support, and rewards players who autofill by prioritizing their selected Queue after they’ve Autofilled. This goes way further than loot boxes. I would love to turn those 12-15 minutes I wait to play DPS into Tanking for a competitive game, and then having a very short DPS queue the next queue. I feel like role queue is a good thing, but I feel like I haven’t seen priority queue addressed by developers anywhere. OR have I just been missing the feedback on this? If so, please point me to the post where this was discussed. If not, I’m happy to have finally started to get the ball rolling :smile: .

There is no way to garentee you get a fast dps Q after auto filling for a match. Lol. That’s not how this works

I think this is an interesting concept however I’m not sure how they’d implement it. If they figured out a way I think it would promote flexing. Just like overwatch before role que. I personally wont autofill because surprise, surprise, I only enjoy playing tank.
