Why do we get limits to avoid and block players the is no need make it unlimited at this rate i have to block an avoid 20 ppl daily due to sus on cheaters and Toxic Players at this rate your more likely to team up with a cheater and get perma-banned for playing cause if you leave 2min-48h ban. at the end of the day valve let you block as many ppl as you want you clearly have over 2 billion account and we block like 110 why should we unblock ppl just to add a new blocked person.
You’re not supposed to block every single person who slightly inconveniences you, that’s why.

Because people of certain ranks have low player pool and they were thrown into the same pool of players over and over again.
True but giving more than 3 would be helpful in limiting toxicity in most cases. There’s a lot of times that where you get matched with the worst type of teammate that are legitimately throwing (going afk, jumping off map, walling off team as mei etc.) not just “I don’t think you’re doing good so you’re throwing”, or super toxic and won’t stop demeaning their team the whole game. And towards the start and end of season, you’ll run into a lot of them so you need the avoid option.
I agree it shouldn’t be “unlimited avoids” so you can be hyper selective of your teammates, but I do think that we need more than 3. Especially if you’re someone who plays a lot of hours. I think something between 5-10 would be helpful, but even then 10 is definitely on the heavier side.
I think what would help is (assuming they don’t already do it) if they automatically removed people from your avoid list if they get actioned against, creating something of a synergy with the reporting system and encouraging the usage of both. If you encounter them again and they haven’t changed their ways, report and avoid again.
Yea that’d be a nice feature to include but they’re so weird and inconsistent about the action they take on accounts. I think something like that paired with giving just a few more avoids would go a long way with the community and help to limit some of the true throwing or toxic matches
they are going up to 10
Did they just announce that in the new update? I haven’t really read into it yet
Players who demand more than 10 or so will never be satisfied even with unlimited avoids.

Did they say it was season twelve or thirteen where they’re hoping to increase the size of the avoid list, as well as allowing new entrants to bump off old ones on your list? Either way, it’s supposed to be on the way, OP. Congratulations.
They had already shown it off in an older Dev commentary prior to even the 6v6 vs 5v5 stuff.
It’ll be 10 Slots total, however only 3 of those will be true avoids, the other 7 are taken as suggestions to not cause even longer queues on the extreme ends of skill spectrum.
Though they’ve become very quiet about this so who knows when and even if this’ll still become a thing…

Thanks for linking. And yea that’d be cool but whether devs actually implement or not is still iffy.

They literally just posted that now you have 15
Lmao yes we all saw the first time you said it thank you
You think they are not going to implement what they just said they are going to implement?
You think the devs ACTUALLY implement everything they say? Remember when ram was supposed to get the ra skin they said they’d implement? Is he still getting that or did they change it?
Can’t name how many times devs have floated ideas like this and not used them. Plus it’s BEEN something they’ve been floating since OW1, so yes I am skeptical about it, just like a lot of others are
