Either remove grouping up for comp, or make a seperate ladder for groups and solo que. At the very least give us 1 free dodge, it wont solve the issue like creating a seperate ladder for groups but will at least give you a little bit of power to deal with this at least sometimes when the people even tell you upfront what they are doing. Make it allow you to dodge 1 game per day for free and line it up with the leaver match disband timer.
It has far more down sides than benefits and it works toward ruining the game for players more than it helps.
Im more than over throw stacks, that didnt get a full 6 stack (or didnt care to get one) having 1 thrower is annoying as hell getting a stack of them means the game is a completely unwinnable fiesta of a waste of time, SR and your mental.
Im over boosters diamond dps duoing with golds on Lucio and Mercy, that 1. make the game pointless and 2. micro manage the team or flame. I get it, boosting is hard, but it shouldnt be a thing anyway.
Im over grouped up players that pick up main healers or even both healers and then just heal their group. You have fun tanking when you get 0 healing. You have fun trying to win the game when the support duo is jerking each other off with nanoing Mercy (that doesnt even try to do anything with it) and dmg boosting Ana.
Im over people actively casually telling you they are a throw stack.
Im over 3-4-5 stacks that say stuff like ‘‘now lets start playing’’ after a full round and a half of actively throwing the game.

I would prefer remove groups less than 6 from competitive. Overwatch is meant to be played in teams.

I would be perfectly fine with that as well.
or we could take the argument the opposite way…basically make guilds, so we can form more meaningful and impactful groups
we need a reverse LFG. a place for players to list themselves, a place where group leaders could browse potential teammates. and individual hero SR, so it’s really easy to see how good of a Tracer you play.
Jeff said why do we want solo queue, he doesn’t see it as that big of a problem, and slightly agree with him. it’s a problem, but not a huge one
im not gonna even consider reading this wall of garbage

Exactly this. We should be able to find players according to what we are looking for.
Say you are in a group of three and you want to run goats. You should be able to go to the LFG and find Zarya Brig and Dva mains for example. Showing players main characters or even top 3 is crucial to the LFG.
And honestly people aren’t going to six stack unless you force it. They’ll take their group and queue up because its easier and people are lazy. Even if it means a worse game play experience. Separating Solo Queue (or Solo/Duo) & Team Queue creates better games for Solo Queue and creates more 6 stacks, which will produce more teams.
Guilds are also essential for production of more teams (especially in lower SR, most teams right now are really for Contenders or OWL) Nobody asked for a Blizzard guild system. We just want an Overwatch guild system.
So yes I agree the problem is with 3/4/5 stacks. Force them to use the LFG. (But make it better first)
