How do we stop people from abusing priority passes?
They farm and throw as tank, to end the game quickly and get the priority pass, just to play “whatever they want” often throwing and flaming team in Dps queue.
You end up with game after game of a tank throwing, or a dps only playing to play their “favorite hero” not grouping, going in 1v6, flaming team.
Winning gets you six passes. The fastest way to get passes by far is to play to win.
Make tanks fun, add more new tank heroes.
Have all roles have a healthy player bases so Priority Passes is no longer needed.
will never happen. DPS will by far be always 10 min+
Well then the band aid that is Priority Passes is here to stay.
I’m pretty sure winning gives you 2 passes unless they updated it.
If anyone out there is throwing 40 games to max out their passes, they’re an idiot.
You win 5-6 passes for winning to promote trying. As a DPS player myself, I definitely try my hardest on tank/support while farming passes, cause I wanna hurry up and get back to my preferred role. Throwing would only make it take longer.
Throwing for a single priority pass is not an efficient time investment. There’s no widespread problem that needs to be addressed here.
Trying for the entire match is too mentally exhausting for these dps players.
Perhaps instead they try for the first teamfight, and if they lose, they just throw to get into the next game faster instead of dragging the game on by giving it their all.
Find friends or join a group to stop things like this from happening.
This.
I’d rather play 1 game as tank and get to play 6 games as DPS than mess around and not give a crap and have to play tank/dps/tank/dps/tank/dps just to keep getting passes. No thank you, not very time or fun efficient, that.
No, that’s a draw. A win is six.
I’m pretty confident that isn’t true. Unless of course they have changed this recently.
Simply go back to Open Queue system and let people play what they want.
I’m pretty confident it is true considering I played one game on D.Va yesterday and got six passes out of it…
Hmm… I’ll have to give that a try. Maybe I’ve been at max passes for far too long and just thought it must be 2 because any more than 2 seems like way too many. 
This doesn’t happen.
Maybe. For a really long time I would stay at max passes and then do a flex game when I only needed 4-5 so that if I lost I’d still have a bunch of passes and it would only take one to max me out. But then I got tired of it and played 40 dps games in a row, now I just play tank till I get a win and then play DPS till I run out of passes.
I mean I guess I should say I flex until I get a win but it’s so rarely support. I just queue specifically for support when I want to play it lol.
