Queue all roles = Queue for tank, always tank

So what is the point of queuing for all roles if you all get only tank?

Should be at least 33 % chance for each role not 100% chance for tank.

Should it move us ahead of the line of people queueing for the other roles?

idk but it’s probably because of cheaters

To no one’s surprised to has played any game with tanks in them, it’s the least popular role! Hence the fastest queues. Tho I do like queuing flex with a buddy, since only 1 person can get tank, and sometimes neither of us do. Gives a nice spread of roles as a duo.

When this choice is made, you are telling the matchmaker “put me whereever you want”

If the matchmaker needs a tank player the most, that then is where you get assigned

Accidentally queued 5v5 all roles earlier. Literally 1 second queue into tank (didn’t enjoy).

Played several 6v6 games queued as all roles and got mostly support, a few tank and even a DPS game.

Think most tank players are in the arcade!

oh my god it is literally just 2 tank options every single time. I have never once gotten any other role using all roles so I have just stopped doing it.

you never pick the right tank
you never play the wrong tank right
you never play the right tank right

but when you join the queue you can easily see what the demand for different roles is and when you queue if demand for tank is high and ypu indicate you’re flexible, obviously you are going to get that role.

queueing for all roles means you are available for any role required, NOT that you will get allocated every role on some sort of equally balanced cycle. i thought that was obvious :man_shrugging:

As mentioned, it currently operates on a “Put me in whatever role”.

What you (And me) want is an option that tells Matchmaking something along the lines of: “Spread my matches evenly across all roles, I wanna play about the same number of matches in each role”.

That doesn’t exist. Yet. But would be amazing to see something like that added, could be an option on some tweak within the “all roles” option or whatever.

It works as intended though. It’s purpose is to lessen the q times of the two more popular roles by deceiving the naive innocent people queueing tanks without consent to play tanks specifically.

All the tanks are in OpenQueue QP friend. Every single lobby has at least 4 tanks.

Yes.

Sadly theres no balancing probability feature for Flex queue. What I do is I queue for 2 roles that I hardly get, like DPS and Support. Then when I wanna play Tank again, Ill go back to Flex Queue.

That’s been my experience too, I get 90% tank when I flex in 5v5.

And just imagine some people think 2 tanks per game is a good idea!

You don’t gotta be the only right tank.
You just gotta be the only tank left.

Most of my flex queue 6v6 games are just DPS and tank. Support has by far the longest queue times pretty much always sitting at 4-6 minutes if I just queue for it

hahahahahaha (yes 20)
