Ever since they implemented 2-2-2, the dash marks that tied team stacks together were removed. Is there no way to see who in QP is on a team stack? I was just placed with a super toxic team stack. All five of them were blaming me for their own inadequacies. When I said they must be in a team stack, they all said “No, ur just horse s***.”
Three games later, I was backfill in a game against them. They were all on a team together again, basically confirming they’re a team stack. It would be nice if it was still apparent when there are grouped members on your team or on the enemy team.

I don’t know. Having gone years with QPC before RQ, then years with RQ. I feel the experience is improved without knowing who are in groups. Saw people whining about oh, its a 5+1 vs 6, I’m leaving. I equally had my 3-2-1 games vs 6 and we just rolled the 6-stack.
Stacking means nearly nothing to your 6v6 experience and a needless distraction. Everyone shut-up and not care about who’s grouped with who. Ask people to join blue chat or don’t keep bothering. People either join or will not no need to be overally worried about it.
Don’t make assumptions about what people are going to do based upon what you perceive to be what a group will do and just react to their behavior in game. You can see that Mercy tied to the hip of that S76 all over the map and not helping the other 4 people as much. That’s all you really need to know.

I see where you’re coming from, but I would have found value earlier knowing they were indeed in a team stack. In fact, they likely would not have been quite so toxic if it was apparent they were in a team stack.
It’s usually obvious if the Mercy pocketing the 76 is a duo. I don’t even care about those situations. In Mystery Heroes, at least the last time I played, it still showed team stacks. People don’t just auto-leave if there’s a 5 or 6 stack. And there’s a sense of accomplishment if your solo queue team beats a 6 stack. So while I see where you’re coming from, I think there is value in knowing team stacks. If it was an opt-in feature, I would absolutely opt-in to know.

Sometimes you just know. If you see “Naruto” and “Saskey” both level 27, both DPS, playing synergistic characters in spawn, it’s not hard to put two and two together.
There’s no reason Blizz could not simply add a colored ‘dot’ near the hero portraits with matching dots indicating the players are grouped.
I like to banter in my games but as soon as I realize they’re stacked I go quiet, I’m not copping tons of hate-reports from a bunch of toxic kids that can give it but can’t take it…
