Since the beginning of this season its been an up and down, Mostly down with Role queue…
Open queue however seems to be more fruitful as seen in my screenshot…

Role queue definitely puts you in games where you are just out matched… I don’t care what people say, “You are where you belong” ? Am I though?
Games come where you have dps mains playing tank for them lootboxes, Tank mains playing dps, dps mains playing heals just for the CP rewards! I’m not even going to get into games where you have leavers, obvious alt accounts, etc.
I am finding climbing in open queue is a lot easier versus role lock… Sure, loses happen but not at the same frequency!
Have at it guys… You can’t change my mind that role queue climbing is damn near impossible solo-queue’n I’m enjoying the wins more in open queue, I have no OWL aspirations, I do enjoy farming for golden guns however!
yeah I’ve been feeling atm that role lock has ruined healing for me. I never really understood ELO hell until this season, I finished last season on around 2250. I could handle myself at that level and that’s where both my DPS and Tank placed this season. But in my healer placements I had throwers, leavers and enemy smurfs in every game, or we’d just get wiped by nanoblade every other fight. I placed 1950. Since then, I’ve consistently dropped down to 1722 atm.
I can have a game where I’m healing as much as physically possible, getting beatutiful sleeps off, but we still lose because just nothing is dying. If I Mercy damage boost, whoever I’m boosting will hit nothing before I need to GA away to heal. I sleep the nano’d genji, there’s no follow up. it’s a rank where I can’t actually carry at all on healer. And a lot of the fights I feel like if I were the tank or the DPS, I’d be handling it so much better. it’s just infuriating
I do think OQ is more fitting with the sprit of the game (and personally enjoy it more)
But honestly they’re just different…and though I always argued for them to bring it back it was never because I thought it should get some sort of favoritism…it was just because they removed the option to play that way…and it should’ve always been available
Absolutely… I get them games, But it is what it is! But overwhelmingly (for me at least) I get games where people wanna win most of the time! Sometimes you get 4 dps mains or 4 tank mains… and it becomes a clusterf*** but you can only do so much.
I think climbing in open queue is easier than role queue honestly. You have more power to take matters in your own hands because all heroes are available. I’m glad you are kicking butt in that type of comp mode.
you are not wrong lol… If someone were to present my case in a different light then perhaps I could agree to a different pattern or whatever… I don’t know if I worded it right, I think you will know what I mean???
Yeah I get it. It’s a super hard sell though, we’re all stuck in our ways and need some extremely deep convincing to change it.
Frankly, I think a lot of us also refuse to change our minds even if something is refuted as it makes us look bad and we’d rather find excuses than admit defeat hehe.
That’s human nature for you, we’re not ants nor sheep.
open que ftw
