And then the very next match you’ll be the one with good teammates. And sometimes both teams will have good teammates and you’ll have a match just as good as any comp match.
Not getting 9 wins in 2 weeks from consistent play is extraordinarily unlikely. It’s a super lenient requirement that I have no complaints about.
Moira’s healing is still quite good? Whuh?
Moira’s damage became way less reliable on the experimental between needing more accuracy and the damage ball being exceptionally easy to sidestep and reduce its damage down to half of what it is normally. Your take on the matter seems uneducated at best.
His complaint is actually that he has to play the game. He thinks he should just be handed 9 wins in a row right away, consistently.
It’s actually a worse complaint than that one.

How does it not? Its not fair at the slightest in Elimination that the winning team loses picks instead of the losing team. The losing team doesnt deserve to keep their picks, because they couldnt win with them in the previous round.
No its not. In fact, that wouldnt have anything to do with a mode that’s about eliminations. In fact, a mode with that idea would work by having both teams start with random 9 characters in total to use, and both sides dont get to use them again in the next round.
If Elimination worked like that, it’d be an alright mode. But it doesnt.
No you wont.
That’s rare, if not, non-existent.
The non-Comp modes shouldnt be like Comp at all. What’s the point of them if there’s no avoiding Comp?
That seems like it could be the case. If they don’t enjoy even playing the game, why in the heck are they still here to complain about it?

Yeah, its the “only if the game gives me 9 wins in a row its almost worth the time playing a game I hate”-guy again…
Fighting a lost battle here.

Yes. It is. The losing team shouldn’t be having a loss exacerbated and having winning a game become easier and easier because the system interferes in the match in your favor isn’t fair.
Having both teams have the same win conditions is fair. It’s a race. The first team to victory by using 9 different characters win. Everyone has their characters locked out once they’ve won a round on it.
Yes. You will. If that’s not your experience then you’re probably just a bad teammate and thus get stuck with one in 100% of your matches.

I do have to point out, you seem to complain a lot that the matchmaking is rigged and always puts you with bad players and teammates
Did you ever stop to consider, maybe it is you who are the bad player/teammate that these other people are getting stuck with?

They should. The winning team is…well, winning. Why should victory be harder to gain for them? Letting the losers keep their picks is just hand-holding for that team.
And again, its not a race. Not when the mode doesnt give both team 9 random picks to use, instead of letting them pick anyone.
Again, you wont. Not with the matchmaking in its current state, not when there are tons of players that dont play to win in QP or Arcade.
Again with that typical bs. Its not me. I play to win. Unlike most of the teammates I get stuck with.
Playing to win doesn’t make you a good player or teammate by default?

It does. Im not a newbie. I go with the right picks. I dont use DPS Hog or Hammond instead of actual Tanks, or the characters on the Healer side that are DPS & dont focus on the job they’re supposed to.
Because winning is supposed to be a challenge? Because a game mode that makes a win a challenge instead of easier and easier is dumb? Do you have any basic sense of competitive integrity?
And it is a race. It doesn’t have to be randomized to be a race. Most races aren’t random. People develop strategies to win them
You will. You’re the only in the thread not having that experinece.

Ding Ding Ding. If getting 9 wins is hard, you aren’t a good player. It takes more than selecting the right hero to be a good player. You have to actually know how to use them and how to work with your teammate’s picks.
Not in non-Comp modes. And even then, the “challenge” thing is nonsense because of the DPS-biased mess OW is now.
We’re talking about non-Comp modes. Also, the Comp tryhards & Smurfs that plague QP & Arcade for easy wins against those that dont play Comp, certainly dont have that integrity.
Not a whole lot like you think.
Again, someone doesnt get the point.
Yes. In those modes. This is a pvp game. Comp is supposed to be a greater challenge rather than arcade being no challenge. You have no sense of competitive integrity if you think that you should regularly be getting 9 win streaks just because you want them and that game modes should be adding handicaps to the people falling behind and make winning easier and easier for whoever drew first blood.
That’s not how you create a game mode where both sides have the same struggle, winning is a challenge, and both opponents have a shot at winning. Which is supposed to be how a game mode is balanced.

I have no idea what shrooms OP has, but I’d like to have some too, clearly they are effective.
I already acknowledged your real point. You think you should be handed 9 wins in a row because you want them. I just don’t believe that you have an easy time getting 9 wins in 2 weeks if you think that’s reasonable.
Nobody complains that easy things should be even easier. So I am given you the benefit of the doubt that you’re a reasonably intelligent person and that you have difficulty getting 9 wins. And that’s the reason you wish it could be faster.
What in the world do you think Arcade even means? The mode is supposed to be a fun & chill mode. Not Comp.
These non-Comp modes shouldnt be a pain to win like Comp is. In fact, that used to be the case back in old OW.
Only the winning team has the struggle in Elimination.
it doesn’t need to be in a row! oh my god it just needs to be 9 wins in 3 weeks total which is totally doable! my goodness. the point is so that you have something to work for! if you want the skin then play! if you don’t then don’t play. there is no way in all of the world that if you play consistently you wont win 9 matches in 3 weeks.

Arcade is still pvp. Pvp means there should be challenge. If you want chill with absolutely no challenge whatsoever, go to Workshop
Incorrect. It becomes increasingly harder to make a comeback and catchup in the race with every win you fall behind.
