? what if YOU play comp so you can have a serious game… ?

QP is where you are ALLOWED to mess around or leave a match and just have fun on hero’s you wanna practice but are absolutely terrible at… where you can test or go for wildly stupid strategies like trying to solo cap a point with only a 1% chance of success…

What kind of ‘serious’ game are you trying to play in quick play? Competitive is where you take things seriously.

EDIT: the actual rule for sabotage just basically says as long as you aren’t being malicious or are behaving with ill intent to ruin another persons experience then it’s not sabotage… QP has doesn’t need to be taken seriously at all times. some times it’s just funny to emote on a payload instead of be serious… relax dude it’s just quick play.

I don´t mind. But don´t yell at me as if your real life depens ot this one match. I am there to chill and heal, not to deal with toddler tantrums.

I mean I know QP is never going to feel like ranked but you’d be surprised how much your reaction time slows when you haven’t played for a day or so. It’s just about getting your head in that right space, so you don’t mess up your comp teams games because you were a bit too slow on your reaction time. Even when I play with my 5stack we try out new ideas in QP it’s not like anyone is losing anything other than their pride.

But we are, its frustrating to play Spawn Walking Sim, every 3-5 mins.

You also have to consider people that need to win 50 quick play games. Keyword win~ not play. Again nobody at Blizzard HQ seems to think for longer than 3 seconds.

They should just make it “play 100 quickplay games”

Personally I actually preferred it like that because if you dont train players into what actually accomplishes a win we will get more players who barely try or do not know how to properly counter and swap. This game is full of one trick ponies and in ranked only at the highest skill have these players learned how to play against their counters properly. Winning will always lead to more insight into what works and what doesnt

This is funny to see after the weekend of ranked mains complaining about QPers in their games lmao

People play QP for a variety of reasons; to try new things, to chill, for practice, to warm up, because they can’t play with their other friends in ranked…but hopefully everyone is playing to win (as it is still a competitive game, if not the game’s most competitive mode).

That being said, a lot of people aren’t playing ranked right now because ranked has never felt like it’s blown more chunks. The ‘drive’ mechanic incentives really crap games; throwers to get quick climbs, people who don’t play often and therefore aren’t really playing where they ought to be at, toxicity…add in an incredibly stale meta and ranked feels just awful. A lot of people are just playing QP to pass the time until, hopefully, s15 fixes something.

Yeah with over a 1000 hours with Ball I never make this excuse.

I train and warm up like any individual.

As a participant in this competitive setting you’re going to have to deal with the current competitive mindset and spirit other players bring.

You simply cannot have your cake and eat while demanding more. That’s just an unrealistic point of view.

So either get with the program, no offense, or don’t play.iIf I’m bad at any hero I’ll take responsibility and gi back to school for them. I never blame others for my bad performance or lack of skill there of.

I’ll just continue to improve and trust me slamming heads in back to back katches is the worst possible method of improvement.

I don’t know why people go into QP and act as if losing has the same weight as Ranked, it’s pointless to go into QP and get mad at people for not doing so good, I get you wanna win but raging is such a weak thing to do especially in something that won’t effect anything, people need to let their egos go.

Thats because in this game there is a skill called “proper positioning” you may know the team comps and how to play the character but the one thing that takes time is learning when to push when to hold and when your feeding. The drive brought in a alot of new players who never understood those concepts because in QP a lot of the time its DIVE DIVE DIVE with players constantly over extending and wasting too many cds and resources of the rest of the team. It just made comp not feel strategic anymore because most players in qp havent had to develop that way of playing.

I can’t even warm up with my team being so bad at just very basic things.

No healing, always feeding. Not even an attempt to heal, or even contest objectives. It’s that bad.

All you have to do is git gud, and nobody will say anything about your skill issues anymore. Simple as. Your qp experience will be saved if you do that one simple trick.
