I won’t say much because I don’t want to anger anyone but it is a problem and even more so the lower you go and the current pocket status of mercy just encourages it more

Yep, usually I report the Mercy too when they’re hard-pocketing the booster/hacker, or even admit to queueing with them to farm SR.
Sad how desperate people are for SR.

While I agree with your argument and stance on the matter, these forums are majority Mercy mains so I’m not sure you expect. The Mercy mega thread which ended with over 100k replies solidifies who uses these forums most I’d suggest using reddit if you want a balanced argument on this.

its so irritating because i could’ve farmed this game if they were solo queued
people here are so quick to defend cheaters and boosters as long as it isnt against them. Its disgusting

With just a few quick screen grabs it’s hard to tell, but I’m not doubting that they were pocketing. However, rez has a pretty long cast time, maybe you should have worked on killing the Mercy when you knew she was going to go in for a rez? Like, you 100% knew who she was going to rez, you could have stopped it had you made some different choices?
Having said that, I find it interesting that you’re mad that you could have “farmed this game” without them. So, you were vastly above the rest of the people playing? You don’t typically “farm” when you’re at the appropriate level. So you’re mad that someone smurfed/boosted better than you?

i was performing well against a team with a boosting smurf
therefore in the absence of a boosting smurf, i would’ve gone pretty much unchallenged

I mean think about it for a sec how far can they really go? Probably up to the booster’s level but then what? The higher they go the more of a liability they are… honestly I just wave goodbye as her head off into their recursive sr purgatory
which means she ruins more games on her way down than she did on her way up
because now instead of playing against a pocketed smurf, they get to play with a boosted mercy main. Which does nothing to help stereotypes about actual high rated mercy players
also pocket queueing never loses efficiency. Wanted always queues with mercys, he just plays with mercys who are actually GM. I usually play with mercys, i just queue with mercys who are actually masters-GM

I once saw a Ana and Moira being boost by 2 DPS who were low rank and the Moira kept talking abusive in the match chat when they won… the next game… against the same 4 people ugh.
None of my team said anything to them though, but the next match they saw my friend had lost his diamond rank and made fun of him and said they were gonna drop him to gold next

i just want duo boosting to be officially bannable

Boosting is something they would ban for, though?
its only really considered boosting if they log into their account
this is a gray area

You shouldn’t speak when you admitted that you can’t play without a Mercy pocket in another thread

On the one hand I agree with this.
On the other hand, I also will group with XIM users from time to time so 
I usually play supports who actually have carry potential, though…
You’ve alos admitted to have smurfed alot so you’re not looking innocent in my eyes
i have no idea what XIM is tbh
ive played on plat accounts to learn more heroes to my level because i dont want to throw games, and from doing that im comfortable on every single hero enough to play even in tournaments
permbanbrig placed gold although i didnt throw placements, but it was in 3200 in about 2 hours because of high MMR

It’s a device which allows translation of any input device (controllers, mouse) to an output equal to using a controller of the system it’s hooked up to.
It’s infamous for allowing console players to have pc aim by hooking up a mouse to their Xbox or PlayStation.
It’s not against the rules nor is it reportable behavior (although boating is), but XIM usage is generally frowned upon by players who do not use or own a XIM.
The major advantage to using a XIM is the combination of mouse input and aim assist which allows things which are impossible to achieve by simply using a controller.
ah thats what i thought it was but it didnt click right in my head
yeah the input lag on those kinda even out the playing field either way
plus a bronze player on PC would still be bronze playing KBM on console
