Im not an amazing player. I am usually satisfied getting ~duelist on most classes over a season. I dont expect to win every match but I do expect to be able to identify what went wrong. For a while now its literally what class I am playing and what class(s) are in the lobby. There is no learning, taking a lose and growing from it. Its just pain. This game is pain now.

A long time ago I heard someone say something that still applies to this day.
You can do everything right, and still lose, this perfectly defines the SS experience right now, you can be doing a ton of damage, maintain perfect control over the enemies, do everything perfect, and still lose the rounds because there will always be someone makes one wrong move and all your effort falls apart, then have that person face you and play perfectly.

That’s just team games in a nutshell
But if you’re doing everything right will win you a ton of games all the way to the top of the ladder so

Yea, boils down to the all the fundamentals not mattering anymore.
- Casters not casting
- Melee with near 100% uptime
- Way to many immunities are partial immunities
- Specs that makes 0 sense… i.e. FW.
- Too many specs that excel at everything
- Complete lack of counters. Nothing counters DH, outlaw, etc.
- Too many bandaids like Procog
The people managing this game just have no sense for what made the game great.

you would win and top the ladders. DF PvP is about WHAT you play not HOW you play.

Each spec has its own ladder.
There is no gain here. there is no getting better, learining, losses and wins evening out do to skill. This is broken.
its clear the devs don’t care. the devs are just some abstract concept at this point in time. devs are just a metric reading machine of gifted artist and nothing else. they broke every aspect of the ui and camera stuff

everything kinda is ions failed vision of the game and not being mature enough to admit when his vision failed and changing things for the better instead of doubling down on failed vision and removing things that actually worked

The reason why you feel that way is because you probably don’t a have a million addons like most players do.
SS is a prime example of thinking what works in mobas can work here.
Most of the folks that were spamming #soloqueuechamp quietly moved to other games, they had good intentions but at the end of the day it was just not going to work and, just like lfr, it’s now here to stay.
Wonder if they’ll actually hire a pvp dev at some point

Well, you aren’t forced to play solo shuffle if you think that way. You can just group up and queue regular arena if you think, you don’t have pain there.

People are not going to do that for simple reasons:
-
If they play with a team that have communication and are coordinated. The thin facade of " I did everything right while my solo shuffle clueless teammate lost it for me" will be gone.
-
Losses will hurt more not having that excuse
-
Don’t want real competition just want to be a big fish in a little pond
But I don’t really blame the players more so I blame Blizzard 
for creating an anti social game mode
My turtle detector is going crazy here
