Private profiles meant that others tried to police the game for everyone else. I don’t play competitive, but I tried to provide a lot of constructive criticism for the balance back in the day… But people would jump on me because I don’t play comp, let alone am a top 500 player. One season, I did make an attempt, but I did 8 matches and 5 of them had leavers so my winrate was awful. Bunch of people jumped down my throat over that too. What they don’t know is that I have over 5 years industry experience working on games… competitive rank means squat in terms of balance discussions. What’s important is one tries to understand how one hero interacts with every other hero.
