Just a heads up on use of Priority Passes

It is still possible to backfill for 2 seconds, lose the game, and consume a priority pass for doing so. Just tested in game.

Well if you backfill a game you get priority queue without spending a pass for your next game.

So remember if you flex queue and get tank backfill, you can queue dps/support for your next game if they are your preferred role so the priority queue doesn’t go to waste.

But I didn’t get a priority re-queue either because I left at post-game screen.

Yeah so don’t do that.

Well. Thank you for the pro tips on flex re-queues and not leaving matches after a backfill. :+1:

Yes but you get a priority requeue which is exactly the same thing as a priority pass so basically you get refunded a priority pass in everything but name.

You should have gotten a priority requeue for that, which actually is better than a priority pass and can be stacked with them.

Just so you both know the order of priorty goes
Pass + Priorty requeue for backfill > Priority requeue for backfill > Pass only > No pass
So the requeue given for backfill is even better than a pass.
I think this is how it goes.
