Blizzard maybe healers would queue if the games were actually rewarding us.
We get 1 DPS that is bad and he dies all the time and each team hes on he loses.
Resulting in a 3-3 and we get NO points. When we should at least get 20.
Why?
Well because I have done 5 different games in a row that end up being 3-3!
I get 0 points.
THEN magically I get into another match and I got 2-4 and then guess what. I lose 40-60 points.
Resulting in a very frustrated healer. This is bullllllllcrap. The really ironic thing is that this always happens and is because one of my DPS forgets to use a CD and or Disconnects.

Funny, same 'thing has been happening to me. Which results in poor rating. =/ Too many aimless robots in solo shuffle lower rankings. Which in turn becomes, LoL’s famous bronze league hero’s. This is 100% the same things. I’m sitting at like a 50% win rate right now, and 950 ranking. lol It’s not rewarding us at all.

You pretty much just have to keep queueing. It can cause a slump at lower MMRs no doubt about it. But with enough games, you should get some lobbies that allow for more skill expression to be able to climb out of it.
Its a real annoying occurrence but if you’re stuck low after hundreds and hundreds of games, there’s some fundamental issues with your gameplay
That’s not our job to fix the gimmicks of the rating system.
Also, no. I have gotten all the way to 1798 just to face 3-3 5 times and then a DC and I lose 100 points because he magically comes back on the enemy side.
Total BS.

I lost majority of my games yesterday in one solo shuffle on my priest and the reason for the losses were that my dps would los.
It was so frustrating that people don’t understand how unaware they are of their healer yet can climb. First game I lost because of that bug where you have to /reload so I couldnt use any of my spells until reloaded.
Second game the hunter is lossing and as I try so hard to reach him, he continues to los more and dies.
Third game Im like ok, for the love of god noone los… Im getting ccd while my dps dk is on the other side of the map forcing me into a bad postion… at this point i’m like “well this is pretty bad”. I get the hunter again on game 4 and he says “bad healer” so I do what any healer would do in that situation. I said “none of you dps deserve rating” and I left the arena so he can sit for another 15 mins.
I fail to climb because I get to tilted, its impossible for me to watch these morons get rewarded. Everyyime I start to climb, I get so annoyed at the stupidity from the dps… yet these people are climbing the ladder and have idea of how bad they make the healers life.

That’s not what I’m saying, I’m pointing out that it can throw lobbies here and there especially at low MMR, which is a frustrating issue, but overall you should still be able to climb across a number of lobbies. There’s not going to be a 0-6 DPS in every single lobby.
You are the only common denominator.

something something mmr something something
Thats not fixing that I queue and MAJORITY of my games are 3-3.
But when I DO go 4-2 I still magically only get what 20-40 points.
The system is completely trash.

You realize this is your way of telling the game, or any MMR pvp game, that you’re at the correct rating and to keep you there?
I noticed that if you win more games, your rating tends to snowball up. Or down if you lose.

This is an impressive level of noticing. Many of our regulars here have not yet reached that plane of enlightenment

I would honestly believe that. But its always one DPS. That f***s everyone over so I know that’s not true.
I get 1800-1900 all the times on all my chars. NEVER A PROBLEM.

guess what… happens to dps too. Healers go 0-6 or 1-5 very often. and we actually have que’s.

For me, the vast, vast majority of 0-6 players in the low/lower brackets are DPS. It’s very rare for one healer to completely dominate the other in RSS.
If you have the opposite experience, then there’s obviously some sort of disconnect somewhere.
Maybe it’s a bracket/rating thing?

highly doubt that. You are probably the DPS that losses all six and cries about how the heals are bad.
Yet every team you end up on you make them lose.
Also, if a healer goes 0-6 they lose a crap ton of points like 80- 140 so they will be kicked out of your elo. these 3-3 games just have all the healers as a floating boat unable to climb to pick up the slack of DPS queues being horrible. Which is not fun.

as a healer main, healers are the whiniest trash players out of all the roles in this community

I completely understand your frustration with the current state of healers in solo shuffle matches. However, I would like to offer you an alternative solution that may alleviate your problem. Instead of continuing to play as a regular healer, consider embracing the power of protection paladin in solo shuffle games. Protection paladins are known for their exceptional abilities in both offense and defense, making them less likely to experience 3-3 matches and more likely to experience exciting and rewarding wins. With a protection paladin on your team, you are more likely to see scores like 4-2, 5-1, or even 6-0. So, if you’re looking for a more enjoyable and rewarding solo shuffle experience, give protection paladins a try.
