Can you then give players the ability to avoid some maps or modes? I don’t like playing Push mode and Illios map.

I guess such a restriction would make matchmaking „harder“ and increase queue times. They are not going to do this since kids nowadays already freak out if it’s 5minutes.

Learn the map. Otherwise you’re soft throwing in ranked because you refuse to play certain maps and refuse to learn them.
Having someone unfamiliar with a map is just as bad as having someone playing a hero they’re unfamiliar with
Leavers deserve stricter penalties

Leaving games shouldn’t mean count it as a Loss on your record, it means leaving games because they’re bad game with bad players, and/or tired of playing certain game modes you’re not interested in. Case in example, I was in 4 different games and each time I’d come across a cheater in each of them. But since you can only add 3 players to “Avoid” list it’s pretty stupid, should be able to add MORE than 3 players at any given time, as as many players as needed.
Leaving is NOT equal to Losing, don’t know where Blizzard gets this mentality from. Leaving means LEAVE bad games to avoid BAD players.

It doesn’t matter. You’ll still level up. I’ve had 250 -75xp at this point. I’m level 124. Do you really care that much of what’s free in the BP.

I don’t play ranked, and I don’t care about ranked.
The penalty is only XP gain reduction? I assumed it’s some kind of ban because it kept telling me I will not receive XP and I’m close to a penalty.
If it’s only that, then I don’t really care about BP stuff.

Push is an absolute joke of a gamemode, clearly whoever thought it up shouldn’t be anywhere near game development.
and the penalty is ridiculous too, considering the only thing to gain in this game is pass exp now having a 6 game penalty of -75% exp for leaving unranked QP games is just pathetic.

In all modes, besides comp, is just XP. And your endorsement rank will drop. Neither one I care about.
To think players complained about 2 CP and they removed it, then added push! I was skeptical about it from the beginning, and every time I played it, it was clear that it is by far the worst game mode ever put in the game. Even worse than arcade modes.

I could care less for the -75XP reduction in QP, it’s stupid and pointless. Just get rid of it entirely because it does nothing. Battle Pass in itself is just pathetic and a joke because the rewards in them are 100% worthless. I’m glad they dumbed loot boxes, because they are gambling, but this is far worse.
Maybe they know the map, have hundreds of hours on Ilios and just don’t want to play it in Quickplay? I understand the reason behind the question, but it’s not going to happen.

Couldn’t care less. You couldn’t care less.
If you could care less than you care more about it then not. Your sentence is gibberish.
Couldn’t care less indicates that your caring is at its absolute minimum.

It’s possible to know a map and dislike it. If we get a control map, I’m going to under-perform even though I’ve been playing them since release. I do not enjoy the mode, and my stats suffer.
Penalties just turn leavers into trolls. Is that really any better? Do you really want someone like that on your team?
You have no understanding what those words even mean.
Could care less means care LESS than you already could.
Couldn’t care less means care MORE than you already could.
your understanding is gibberish without context.
You can leave at the assemble hero selection screen without penalty.
So how much less could you care then?
If you could care less, it means you currently care some.

Wouldn’t mind an option to opt out of maps or maybe have the ability to put those maps at the back of the line in priority because I haaaaaaate Nepal yet get it a lot. Also getting pretty tired of Oasis and the Greek one. Koth in general tbh. Don’t mind Busan and Lijang tower though.
Yeah, in QP, since the matchmaker is so whack anyway, I think having a map filter would be fine. The main issue I have with QP is that defense is not as fun because when you are on payload defense in Comp, the goal is to not deny them the map completely (try to do so of course) but to stall them for as long as possible so you can do it faster on attack. In QP, you never get the chance to attack yourself - kinda sucks.
Well GMs and European players are already at a 20min queue at times, yet the game always finds me an (imbalanced) match within 90 seconds.
Comp wasn’t even mentioned you kinda just pulled that out of nowhere they said qp
