So 1800 is not all that great, but it is all that I wanted. Yet according to all you naysayers, I am bad, I hit my limit, I should get better and learn to play better, I should this and that and, you get the idea.
But yet, here I am, I found an arena partner who actually knew how to play and within a day, 1800, and the entire time our MMR was 2100+.
SS simply needs an overhaul to give healers a better game, which in turn lets more healers in, which in turn gives DPS a smaller queue, which in turn means DPS are not going to be angry and abusive when they lose because âThis healer is badâ, and that also means us healers, we are not going to be whispered after the match is over and further abused because a DPS cannot hack it that they also lost.
And importantly that a healer going 3-3 is a net positive for both healers, itâs the DPS who could not carry themselves out. There is only so much a healer can do.
OK so because of MMR and DPS queues being SUPER high, it means you are inevitably going to get healers with a 0 rating being grouped with healers who have a 2K rating, but that also means DPS are in the same boat, with all the variances in MM it means it will be Goku vs Radditz, and not Episode 12 Goku either.
Throughout the last couple of weeks I have had way too many 3-3 games because one DPS is playing out of their league, and I donât mean a low iLVL bad player, I mean one DPS who should be 2.4K+ rated going against someone who is new and there is almost nothing you can do as a healer.
Re-queue, go again, hope you eventually get that one game where the other healer is bad and you finally gain rating, then do it again, hours or days of queuing into 3-3 games for that one game to gain rating, but, you end up coming across a better healer and now all that effort, all those +5, +10, +20 games is gone because some new to SS healer shows up and is just better than you, but they are new to SS and have a 2K MMR, so now you go -50 points in rating.
All those wins, for nothing, because you win 10-20 points and lose 50. Yes, I have had many games in the past week where I was the only person in queue with a rating, the rest were all new, 2K MMR, 0 CR. Go 2-4 in one of those, -50 DKP.
But I am done, and hopefully none of my future mains ever have an elite set I want. And I am not the only one, over on R/WorldofPVP there are tons of people who are all admitting how bad it is, with the MMR, the constant 3-3 games and the abuse, there are tons of people who are just done with healing SS, itâs not worth it.
Speak of the devil and they will come.
