It would take just as long to find a game with role select though, it wouldn’t make a difference unless you’re a tank or a support player.
Believe me, this community will hate a role select system and won’t use it enough for it to even make a difference.
Does this mean People are having more success finding groups while playing than waiting in soft role queue lfg system (with the stay as group button).
I tend to add people that speak during a game as I’m usually speaking. These people tend to group up with me from time to time if I ask to play some games.
Well we have “the current system of balanced and attempt at balance factually doesn’t work” vs “i don’t believe the new system would work”. The only thing left is to try.
lfg is garbage… without role select flex players will just keep leaving.
Like mccree roll or what ? Do you need that ability so much ? I dont find it that …select.

Blizzard gave people like you LFG so you can create/join comps that you believe to be “balanced”.

Role select could go over terribly. It forces comps if it does lock your heroes, so anything other than 2-2-2 could never be played. If it doesn’t lock comps, people will still just pick whatever they want if the first push doesn’t work out.
What if you get two heavy projectile dps players? If they aren’t confident on hitscan you just can’t deal with phara easily since your Ana main can’t go widow.
Also one-tricks will feel extra extra bad with that system.
In gm, most mercy mains can only play mercy or dva at a gm level, dva moreso masters level. So if you get two of them in the support category. You lost because the mercy can’t swap to dva.
So do you split it by sub roles as well? Who counts as what. Some teams play mercy as a main healer or an offhealer with Ana. Is hammy an offtank or a maintank? Is it one hitscan and one projectile player? If so, what if the projectile player is good at tracer and genji but the enemy has strong anti genji comp?
System is flawed.
You’re able to start a group.
The wait time for LFG is about how long Role Select would make the queue time for everyone trying to queue for DPS.
Besides forced roles would just introduce new problems. A solution to a problem shouldn’t create new problems.
Use lfg then, and realize that team comp isn’t what’s making you lose
LFG is a ghost town nice solution m8
Is roll select where everyone picks their own Wrecking Ball?
What is making me lose then? Do you know? Ignorant comment.
for DPS players you mean
Queue times for supports and tanks would be low, while queue times for DPS would be high. The reason for this, which is the same reason why you have 4-5 instalock DPS, is because people are unwilling to play anything but DPS.
Lets do it. Seriously. If you want a faster queue time, you have to be willing to play support and tank. It will force people who just want to DPS to actually play other roles. No more “I’m a DPS main and can’t flex”. Everyone should flex.

Your own individual skill and capabilities. I used to be a hard stuck plat. Now after lots of practice, I’m a GM. I’m better at the game, and it had nothing to do with team comp. Lol just yesterday I won with 6 dps on Blizzard world

Or DPS can maybe play a different role for once to avoid those wait times.
Tanks would be an easy wait and so would support.
Theres way to many dps players in this game. And 3 dps comps are by far the most common outside of 2x2 and its a recipe for a loss. There is a reason 3x supports or 3x tanks have had their meta. 3dps never had a meta because you lose. Yet stubborn dps refuse to accept this.

If only there were some way you could do that…oh right, no one wants to use it. Proves how much people really want it.
Exactly.
Why should they waste their dev time again?
