How so…? 
because hes succeeding with healers and it ruins his narrative bias about healers being so hard to play and climb with in shuffle
Nope, I know full well the MMR issues with healer. Idk who doesn’t at this point. No idea what is holding back Blizzard from putting a Band-Aid on healer MMR for now until they get rid of the MMR system for good though.
And no I wasn’t watching his stream when this happened. So after playing healer so much he finally realized the MMR issues with healer or?
No means of tweaking role mmr, I guess. They can bump everybody up but not exclusively healers.

This is most likely the answer yes. I guess I should have said “something is holding them back” instead of “I don’t know what is holding them back.”
Chances are at that mmr he’s going to know his opponents irl. I’m not saying wintrading is happening but with such few healers it’s ripe for exploit
Outside of the obvious MMR inflation needed:
Hpal and Rdruid are fine, but both require pretty much a full set of crafted gear.
The other healers are at the mercy of their own dps and the matchup.
Combine that with the fact that probably 60% of 1.8-2.4games feature a 6 or 0 win dps in the lobby forcing 3-3 there isn’t any incentive to to play since their MMR doesn’t move, which leads to lack of healers and queue times.
The healer algorithm was in the same terrible state in s1 as well, it was just less of an issue because participation was higher across the board.
I mean yeah…
I can get 2.1 in under 200 games in rated 3s and struggle in solo q.
yeah cause 6 rounds is a struggle
Only the diehards will be playing arena once solo shuffle battlegrounds come out.
Let solo shuffle arena exist, but only as a second hand form of pvp content. Time to start balancing around solo shuffle battlegrounds.
Yeah, healing sucks - DPS just run away from you and line you and don’t peel. It’s just whoever has the better burst really.
i’m sure he’ll go back to viewer 2s farming low ratings for content.
