Please implement the rating per round asap. Leavers seem to have become rampant.

As a healer, I feel like I have zero incentive to play solo shuffle. I just went 3/6 and 4/6 and got no rating change because everyone else was rated lower. Then I went 5/6 for 50 points. Compared to losing over 200 points from 2 bad queues. I lose way more than I gain and it’s just not worth queueing for it.

There also seems to be a trend toward melee heavy lobbies; with superior mobility, sustain, interrupts, and damage without having to cast…why not!
rest shaman
solo shuff is the first target we are dead meat atm
if you arent a dk or a dh dont even bother in arena rn
How about a re-colored version of the Gladiator mount for achieving “Legend” from solo shuffle?.. Perhaps a Black Scales re-color. Getting 2400+ with these long DPS que times is worthy of a mount in itself.

Surprise me Blizzard.
I don’t see any incentive at this point that could get me to continue queing as a healer. I’ve hit 1800, got my mog. Why queue for a pug 3s where coordination is difficult outside of chaining what is obvious. The role just doesn’t have that great of an impact compared to the best DPS player in the solo shuffle. It feels helpless at times when your DPS overcommit and you have to follow.
I feel solo que for Rated Battlegrounds would have been better. Still subject to alot of these problems, but it may have better queue times. But hey maybe not, this experiment doesn’t look great right now.
On a side note: gear is open to everyone now with no ties to rating. I can only speak for myself, but I’m sure there are other people out there that feel that same way. I don’t feel the need to push or queue for that matter anymore.

This rating adjustment and penalty for leavers needs to be implemented ASAP.
It’s not fair to people waiting up to an hour for a game only to win 4-5 games and get 0 rating because someone losing leaves with literally no penalty.
Then they go on to play a game, waiting almost an hour because of the the removal of tanks, only to then possibly lose rating.
Even when deserter is applied, a 15 min deserter will do nothing to stop people from leaving. There needs to be a more severe deserter penalty and a large loss to rating in addition to rating calculations for the remaining players.

bruh, just give people who leave before the end of the 6 rounds a penalty that actually matters. like can’t q solo shuffle for 2 days and lose 500 rating. this is ridiculous. making it to round 6 and some kid rage quits so no one gets any rating even tho we just went like 5-0 and put the effort in already. awful game design.

Why does it take so long to play? Once you queue you can be waiting there for sometimes 50 minutes!!

I am having an average of 30-40 minute wait time, and if someone misses their que it is above this time, last time I queued, someone didn’t accept it around 25 minutes, and then it continued to have me in the que and then timed out at 45 minutes. I am now sitting in a que; haven’t played yet and have been waiting for over an hour. I mean for a solo que I feel like this absolutely needs to be addressed.
(Update 35 Minutes Later from top): Still in the second que I give up. I have now been waiting for an hour and 25 minutes for a SINGLE SOLO QUE. Guess I won’t be doing any quick solo queing for practice today. As someone who is new to WoW and wants to PvP. This is an absolute “i’ll stop playing this game” issue. If I have to wait for even 20 minutes for a single que is long… My children who were napping, now are awake. Merry Christmas.

Totally agree, they should be temporally banned from ranked play for a day or 2 and lose rating as well. If it comes down to an internet issue, then ranked play should require good internet. If you can’t play on a solid connection then don’t do ranked it isn’t fair to team mates anyways.
Update, I have been waiting for over 1 and 1/2 hours to play a solo shuffle. I mean wouldn’t you just que the first few players who que, who cares about team comps? I mean if there is 6 players all dps who want to que, let it be a 3v3 dps… Not sure waiting for an hour and a half when I want some quick action is good for your player base.

2400 for weapon cosmetics is really demoralizing since players cannot equip certain weapon types as certain classes. Is 2400 going to be the standard going forward to complete transmogs?
These leavers in solo shuffle on the 6th round is really killing the vibe

Hopefully, although something to fill the rift between 2400 and rank 1 would be great.
One suggestion I have to fix the solo shuffle queue times is to have a 2v2 version of it that includes just dps. In regular 2v2’s, no healer comps are still competitive and if you can get gladiator rewards from 2v2, it makes sense to me to also give soloist rewards for winning in solo queue 2v2.

Please fix this. When a person leaves the match before its over we get nothing for rating. I played 7 games in a row as a healer evoker and won every one, and each match i got 0 rating because the other team had someone leave. You should get rating even if someone leaves. And the person that quits should get a 200 point penalty at least.
Lol yeah I lost 250 points across 2 matches and then regained 40 over 2 … cool? I’m like on the low end of mmr
