Characters can be balanced better, match making will be more even, no more loading into a match with 3-4 onetricks who all play the same character so you auto lose in spawn, the macro experience of the whole game will be greatly improved, dont let peoples strawman arguments about theoretical niche comps that are fun or effective once dissuade you, they can have those in no limits or the arcade/workshop.
This is exactly like when hero limits were improsed, lots of people complained but it made the game much better.
while i dont think its ideal. i think currently bad players are holding this game hostage and the precise matchmaking from role lock would keep them more amongst their own kind where they do no harm. current system lets bad players roam all over the ladder through rng and grinding and ruin too many games.
The game is not held hostage but the bad players being in ranks they donât belong in and the mentality of âplaying what you wantâ without a care about comp/meta is hurting this game.
i just dont like how they so easily ruin a good chunk of my games with their selfish way of playing. it feels like im being held hostage because i cant leave the game.
the only solution is to grind games so you are in enough games where the enemy also gets the thrower. both winning and loosing because of thrower players sucks.
The most common strawman I see is from the pro-2/2/2 side claiming those against it just want the âcreativityâ of 5 DPS comps.
Those things you claimed arenât even guaranteed. You can still get multiple one-tricks in the same roles, and probably will since locked 2/2/2 encourages more one-tricking. Characters could be balanced better but that doesnât mean they will, we all know how the balance team works. There are plenty of terrible 2/2/2 comps so matchmaking isnât guaranteed to improved.
Alright, I also want 2-2-2 but this subject is starting to feel old. Can blizzard just pick an answer and let us know please. This argument is the same thing. Creativity vs structure.
They are clearly working on it but it takes time, and Blizzard sure likes to take their time so, I wouldnât hold my breath for it, but Iâm pretty sure itâs coming, just out of common sense, if it wasnât they wouldâve shut down the conversation already.
