Why is it so common for an arena partner to suddenly leave if things don’t go the right way? I mean don’t get me wrong I’m use to it, but it just feels bad. I can’t imagine how it feels for people new to the game
Im not the best healer but I just want less than 7 out of 10 people I find to not verbally attack me, judge me for being out of position, or moving my character backwards.
Probably need to be more honest upfront with your ability and find someone similar to yourself. Also, being clear with your goals. Just playing for conquest? Playing for fun? Playing to hit a certain rating? Playing to learn? Each will attract different people.
I usually join the ones that say “yolo” or “chill”. Anything that mentions win/lose for points and fun
I’d just focus on making your own groups. If you want to heal, you should have no issue finding people. Being clear with what you want though gives you a much better chance of having a good queue session. Most of the time that I do 2s, I’m just looking for conquest.
“chill games, farming conquest.” That’s it. If I get someone that suppper serious, I’ll just ‘GG’ and move on to the next. If I’m looking for wins though, I’ll dive in a little deeper. Lots of people making those yolo groups are still looking for rating OR they don’t want to lose any rating. People might be fine going 50/50, but two losses in a row might be the end of it.
Regardless, I’d just be upfront and make your own group. You’ll find someone much more suited to what your aim is. You can even go so far as saying… “looking for help, new to X” and you’ll probably get some hits.
Yeah you’re right I just don’t remember this being that bad of an issue? But maybe I’m wrong…
This is sound advice I’ll give that a try thank you 
When I join a group or invite someone I say “hello” with a smily face. If they don’t respond they’re gonna leave after first loss 100%. So do a lil test before queing next time. If they fail it just pretend to dc or say you got an emergency.
Hello, long-time healer here:
There’s really no way around it if you’re healing pugs. Find steady partners or queue solo rated.
In case of emergency, employ absurdism. Most wow arena players are hyper-logical-brain and if you say something that doesn’t make sense to them, they will just disengage until they can queue next.
its hard for me to not be an a-hole, but i always apologize for being toxic because i know im being that way, and explain that im more mad at blizz than my partner lol
Mostly from tilting. It happens to everyone.

Hey, I played with you and I was nice to you. I even let you play tank even though I protested you should play something else.
That’s until you backstabbed me to sit at the cool kids table.
What does this mean
Dawg everything was fine untill you started making nasty comments to covs child stop acting like youre innocent. Its all recorded ask vis, aka rasin
Deal with this a lot too
“yo dude I just want you to know im super fried rn so if you want to take these games seriously just find someone else”
“yea no problem man”
First L:
“DID YOU JUST OVERLAP TRINKETS WITH ME!??!?!?! UR POSITIONING IS GARBAGE RAH RAH RAH”
Usually an XP gap or some big red flags going on. ITs unforch but as someone said above its better to try and find a group of similar XP people and try to improve together,
Playing with people who may be at different places in experience the mindset is “I dont wanna lose at 1500 for 3 hours, or 1800 for 3 hours or 2k for 3 hours etc etc” No one owes anyone any loyalty or explanation nor is it needed.
I would assume most aren’t gonna join a group then criticize if the first 1-3 games were awful they will just tap out and leave without a word.
imagine playing arenas for fun

Okay, but something can be yolo or chill and still try to give advice. If you’re backpedalling or standing in the wrong spot someone can say, “Hey. Try not to stand there where you can be swapped to” or “dont stand in the open so you get CCd for free” and that’s not assaulting or rude. That’s just helpful advice.
Most LFG advice is garbage
The way you worded it is fine. But in my experience the groups I join have been more aggressive about it where the intent is to make me feel bad. One person didn’t even give me a chance and just left because I backpedal.
I’ll dps for u on my warrior sometime
