Cope harder isn’t going to get you in trouble.

I’d always err on the side of caution though.

yes healers r very strong. very very strong indeed

but if 5 ppl cant kill 1 this is no doubt an issue with the 5 people

they r prob doing lousy damage, not kicking/stunning. or stunning at wrong time etc (like dont stun me when im 100% hp lol)

Yup, whole lotta my team =/= their team today.

Had quite a few games with 2 duo queues on the other team, while we have none or one. This is going to be a big deal IMO.

Nothing I can do other than be the only one on the team to focus the proper target, mark said target for them, call out strats, and still watch the droolers drool.

Oh well.

Easiest way to win is just win the teamfight with big dam/heal.

All the DPS who think objectives matter are losing most of the games that they lose the teamfight in, regardless of how well they play other objectives. Just the way it is when winning teamfight means winning at least 1 objective and giving your team a good understanding of what to do next and confidence.

Coordinated groups are obviously different and 1 guy playing objectives well can be impactful. But in randoms, especially at low MMR, 90% of teams aren’t ever going to recover and group up and coordinate for objectives after getting sent to the GY. So whoever wins the opening teamfight wins the game.

Well it hurts when you are top damage AND you take care of all the objective BS all game, and your team still finds a way to lose.

Like, killing or CCing a healer is just not on the menu for these people.

People need to think for themselves on these maps (the cap node ones for sure.) and there isn’t a whole lot of that unfortunately.

The amount of people who can’t just open a map for 2 seconds and check objectives, is truly astounding.

I mean I didn’t tell them they suck so bad they should do everyone a favour by quitting and protest them to just stop playing the game.

  • I do however, know there does exist a level of extent that does matter to Blizz and is recognised by them, because I’ve been told such by a GM before.

From what I recall, Blizzard GMs have a list or something they assess? Such that is weighed alongside their own discretion from reviewing the subject.

So for instance, you are right we could both get a silenced or temp ban – However they may suffer a higher penalty than my own … Alternatively however, it could simply put a marker on our names and if further reports are made against either, an investigation will be conducted & an appropriate result will ultimately be established from the review.

If you live in a North American time zone late evening to late morning is peak oceanic pvp guild play time. Noon to 9pm EST seems to play out the opposite. I play after work and win a bit more than I lose and I dont queue with a healer or queue sync.

4 ppl on my team were able to kill a preservation evoker today, Iwas one of the 4 and so proud.

Some specs kill some healing specs easier than others. Priests and Holy Paladin dont cause my Hunter issues I dont have the solution for but others do. Im just glad I no longer get murdered by a MW monk. I dont know what damage nerfs they got but it worked.

Vast majority of players still don’t understand how to play blitz. They want to team brawl, and then don’t understand why they lost in 5 minutes when 1-2 people on opposing team were objective focused.

And then whip out the damage done stats like it matters. Capping a base/flag takes just one cc and zero damage.

Blitz is an awful experience. It serves a great purpose between shuffle queues but I don’t expect to gain rating from it.
Can’t carry a team by being the only one doing objectives :woman_shrugging:

I find that it’s either an awful exp or a great exp. Not much middle ground.:joy:

It really depends. I was able to spin Goldmine for an entire minute yesterday all by myself as a restoration druid against 4-5 people but we’re one of the tankiest healers. Bear form, plus 64% damage reduction with my cooldowns, not even factoring in vers.

I was lucky enough to have some close games we won, won a few more than I lost. Had so much fun last night I woke up to pee at 2am and played more before work instead of going back to bed. Had this nagging idea when I was trying to fall back to sleep that I needed to realocate talent points to gain Tar Trap and Bursting shot, it was a good idea.
