Why 2-2-2 will kill low/mid rank matches

It’s very clear that role que is coming to OW, just by common sense, if it wasn’t, the developers would’ve clarified by now that it won’t come and stop all conversation about it.

The que’s wont be that long, a que in LFG is barely 5 minutes. And whatever que we get at release will slowly stabilize over time.

You will be reported and banned eventually, for abusing the system.

I never said I was going to do this. I don’t play in low ranks (I have alternate accounts to play with friends who are too low to que with)

And even then its still not reportable. I am allowed to play moira with my playstyle(that I dont use, like I said I dont play moira), even if its sub-optimal.(again I don’t. I don’t even play moira often I play mercy/brig/sym)

i dont care what you play. ive played this game long enough to detect throwers and griefers… and now that we have the replay system its even easier… you throw, you get reported. easy.

Why dont you just leave like you said you were in your other thread? Are you mad people want to play with teams instead of babysitting dps players?

Nothing last forever. When a relationship isn’t working out, it’s time to move on. I’m sure the next call of duty will be out soon.

Does anyone know what the game will take into consideration to gain SR for the healers? What stats will it evaluate other than healing? Hero specific stats?

Ive adressed this. It would be unfortunate for u to fall under this category but many people on this game do seem to not care about their team mates experience

Here’s the thing, I don’t want call of duty, thats why I dont want role que, or forced 2-2-2.

The more you put limits in the game the more the games start to look simular.

Once 2-2-2 is out there’s going to be an even more played meta, more than goats. Because there’s nothing you can really change around to counter it.

double sniper beats dive, but triple tank comps do beat double sniper, so once you set in 2-2-2 the only comp that’s going to be played is double sniper, becuase the comps that counter it can’t be played anymore

the more the games look and feel the same the more they feel like cod to me. because all cod feels like to me is the same thing over and over again

Sure as hell can. Few days ago buddies and I had an ana on our team who didnt heal at all, pretty much every1 in the game reported him for throwing. They are the only person ive reported in a long time, yesterday got the thank you for reporting action has been taken message.

If youre playing a support, and not healing your team at all, you are not trying. You are not trying to play your role at all, you are griefing, and will be reported as such.

2 tanks and 2 healers every game is absolutely not comparable to call of duty. Id argue most 4-5 dps comps have more similarities like lack of actual teamwork for example.

and over a very short number of games, they will get banned from reports.

Just sounds like a growing pain.

if you get moira and dont heal thats trowing so you will be reported and bronce in healer sr.

actually its not. as long as you are trying its not thowing. the definition of thowing is PURPOSFULLY losing a map by running into the enemy team and dying or jumping off the map.

Also separting sr would have to rework the way that comp points are given out at the end of season. Also separated sr is really broken. Think about how much top 500 would move round now that everyone (technically) has 3 accounts for comp

then i supose taking soldier and only healing is not trowing.

Lul at the people that believe their false reports will solve this problem. Ha ha ha… They are so confident too. Man, once reality hits it will be really fun to read their threads.

diffrence there is 76 isnt made to heal in any way. When you pick 76 and just heal your not doing anything because hes not made to heal

moira was made with being able ot dule flankers in mind, if she wants to go out and dule all the flankers then she should be able to.

if they did’nt want her to be doing damage they would’ve given her terrible damage,

also moira offers nothing to the team other than damage and healing so she will be needing to be assisting in kills

also a 76 only healing would be ignoring the enemies, No character does that. as moira dps’ing you still have to pay attention the enemies and to your team, if your team moves back you do too.

dps moira CAN get value, a 76 only healing cannot.

not to mention dps moira can be played simularly to zen. if I want to only be healing by exclusivly using healing orbs well then i’m basically doing what zen does… because he only heals with his orb

and let me add this

I dont play moira I’m not going to be doing this in my games.

I play support, even if I did play moira the point of this post is too step into the shoes of a frustrated dps player

not to mention dps moira can be played simularly to zen. if I want to only be healing by exclusivly using healing orbs well then i’m basically doing what zen does… because he only heals with his orb

Blows my mind how wrong you are about this. Zen has fire and forget orbs that persist with LoS. Most of moiras burst healing potential comes from using her right click in conjunction with her healing orb.

Please stop talking about things you have literally no understanding about.

Its parallel queues, stop the fear mongering… and if you dont heal, you can be reported. Just saying. Basically, your just throwing, its a violation.

I daresay lad it seems you have lost your marbles!

More like than not, someone does that, someone gets avoided reported and suddenly they just aren’t our problem anymore :smiley: And well, most people actually want to win games, making the person that does this rare comparitively.

Gunna need a better reason than “Mah queue times!” to let the game stay with its complete failure of matchmaker that can’t cope with the “creativity” making a large chunk of games into “Well they got the right blocks and we got 3 of the same main oh fun”.

But the role-based SR would buy you a ticket to Bronzeville. Population: DPS Moira. Chief export: 30% WR. Local temperature: Defeat° F.

Role based sr would make top 500 too problematic. everyone would basically have 3 accounts, it would break top 500

support players would average lower than where they should really be
same goes for dps and tank players

if it averaged out then top 500 would be lower than it probably should be.

most top 500 don’t even play more than one role
