Absolutely no way, damage dealers deserve to wait in que 10 hours.
Playing as a DD, even being the worst DD in the lobby, I never received insults from healers.
but if I play worse than the enemy healer and lose 0-6, I get insults regularly.
If 1 damage dealer is weaker than the rest and goes with a score of 0-6, then behind his back they insult him.
Damage dealers had a chance to create a favorable environment for healers to want to play this mode, but they didn’t.
The solo shuffle showed how rotten pvp community .
pure dps player should sit long qs
dps mains that will heal 1 shuffle every 5 lobbies should get fast queues
If youve done any amount of shuffles as healer you know dps deserve to sit 10 hour qs for sure

Another weighty argument - look at the top pvp streamers. Their solo shuffle content is based not on showing how strong they are, but on humiliating the gaming skills of their teammates in solo shuffle. Show me another game on Twitch where this happens. Is the content of top players in counter strike or other games based on toxicity? In many games, the audience will look on in bewilderment as to why top players insult players who are weaker at pvp. BUT the World of Warcraft community is simply crazy about such content. This is fine? I’m not saying that all streamers have this kind of content, but most of them have it like this.
Literally every game has smurfing
Gives the noob viewer the impression that the streamer is good at the game.
Unless ur watching actual high mmr/elo competetive gameplay, most streamers are smurfing and roasting the bad players.
yes, but I have not seen it in such large quantities anywhere. Even Awc champions do this.
The streamer does what is popular, the World of Warcraft pvp community literally feeds on anger. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the game is played mostly by very old players. And because of the time spent in the game, they were not able to create the kind of personal life that they would like in real life. I think some university should investigate.
Theyve always done this. You think Mes is qing at 5am with Weckso donating thousnds of dollars at 2k mmr cause its fun? No, hes more likely to win games on stream for entertainment.

dps needs to just be put in time out.
yes, but almost all the content on the solo shuffle is negative, this is not good. and pvp many negative too
The pvp community in Warcraft has always seemed to me overly aggressive and angry. But I didn’t pay attention to this, only after I played a solo shuffle on the healer did I see the full picture.
My theory is that the dps are so angry in shuffle BECAUSE of the 45 minute queues. I recently started playing a healer, and it solidified my theory.
With the instant queues as a healer, you don’t care if you win or lose the game. You’re just having fun playing, and if the rating comes, it comes. If you get a bad lobby, who cares, you just queue up again.
But as a dps, you’re already in a bad mood by the time the queue even pops. 30 minutes in, you mouseover the eye icon and think to yourself “wtf”. 40 minutes in, you really have to pee, but know that you’ll miss the queue so you don’t. When the queue finally pops at 45 minutes, you’re grumpy and you’ve already lost interest in actually q’ing the shuffle, but you feel forced to because you spent 45 fusking minutes waiting for it.
So when someone throws games and makes alllll that waiting a waste of time, yes, people are going to be upset.
TLDR: People won’t be as toxic if dps queue times were even REMOTELY acceptable.
