Role queue selection

General Discussion

So s lot of people from my experience dislike role queue so far. this is just personal interaction and does not refer to the community as a whole. Personally, I like it. also if I just want to play some whacky comps we have classic. I haven’t don’t my placements yet, so this is just background on where I’m at. I just had 2 suggestions for improvement and I wanted the forums input to see if I’m off base or on to something.

  1. My for suggestion is that the algorithm for role selection in quickplay should include all your selections. What I’m talking about is there should be a balance of roles based on your selection. So, I’m a flex player and I’ve been selecting all roles when queueing so as to play what is needed (which I’m happy to do), however, so far I’ve only gotten support and tank. Which is fine to an extent but, I like to DPS as well. This is after hours of play as well. My suggestion is that if you’re selecting multiple roles or all, as I do, and let’s say you’ve been in X amount of matches the neglected role should have it’s likelihood of being selected increase. so saying, for example, I’ve been support 3 times and tank 4 times then I should be first in line for dps, or tank, or healer. Whatever is popular that week.

  2. dual tournaments or alternating, with both being available with competitive. Why does it have to be just 1 competitive seasons? like if you had a classic league and a role queue league I think it would lead to more air time for the OW league which would lead to more money for the company. I get it. you couldn’t kill goats, so you outlawed it. But why can’t we have both a 2-2-2 and teams creating weird comps. Blizz made a role queue QP and a classic QP, so why not competitive.

Maybe I’m reaching too far. getting too close to the sun. I just love this game and want it to get better. What does everyone else thing?

  1. Someone’s suggested something similar a few days ago, I don’t remember what happened, but they wanted role credits for the time they were in the needed roles to use on the role with the long wait time to wait less time. I’m not sure how they could do either what you’re suggesting or what they suggested.

Also I don’t think it would come down to them adjusting their algorithm more so they’d need to write an additional program all together. They’d also need to send it through debugging and polish that up too. It takes a while.

  1. They said they don’t have enough space. Also, two comps would mean not enough players for the higher ranks. The wait times in high ranks are absolute garbage. which is why smurfing has become quite a bit more popular.
