Went 5-1 and gained 0 points and the one I lost was MC DC

If theres nothing wrong with solo queue then why did blizzard make a bluepost about the fact theyre trying to fix and improve it?

If it was fine they wouldnt have needed to comment on it.

Matchmaking Value for each player in a match will be displayed on the scoreboard.

• We want to provide additional visibility to matchmaking. Matches are made based on the matchmaking rating of players, not their current rating. When a player enters a match, we determine the expected performance of players in the match based on player matchmaking rating (MMR). We take all the rounds into account, considering who was on each side and who won, so it matters which specific rounds the player wins, and not just the total number of rounds won, in calculating impact on MMR. We hope this helps players to better understand the matches they’re placed in, as well as rating changes of individual players based on the results of the match.

theyre showing mmr so players understand why they’re getting 0 points, not fixing the system because players are getting 0 points

Beyond 10.0.5

Looking to the future, we’re actively discussing options we might take to incentivize more healers to queue for Solo Shuffle to reduce the queue time for the damage role. This includes ways to make Solo Shuffle gameplay a more fun, rewarding experience for healers. We do not have anything to share about that right now, but in addition to leavers, it’s a foremost concern for the team.

We’re also looking into improving the UI further for both those in-queue and those who are about to queue.

As a team, we’re excited about Rated Solo Shuffle and we’re looking to iterate and improve on it in future patches. Your feedback has been valuable and greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much!

You forgot this part.

They’ve admitted that solo shuffle for healers isnt fun, thus they are looking to improve/fix the issue.

unrelated to mmr, queue incentives =/= giving healers free rating

[Lights-proudmoore]

Okay but that doesn’t negate the fact that they’ve openly admitted something is not right with solo shuffle.

if there was nothing wrong with it they wouldn’t have had to make a blue post about it.

[Grarïl-khaz-modan (Grarïl)]

that problem is not bad players being stuck at a rating where they cannot win more than they lose

[Lights-proudmoore]

No but it is a problem when you win games and your rating doesn’t move.

If everything was fine and dandy they wouldn’t have to:

incentivize more healers to queue for Solo Shuffle

[Randyrampage-area-52]

Not sure if any skill gain on my part would stop that healer running straight at the other team right out the gate and boom dead.

not an mmr problem, climbing is easy if you’re better than your average lobby. incentives = things like priority tokens, gold, cosmetics and whatever else blizz usually does for pvp rewards

deep thoughts

[Koobernetes-proudmoore]

ELO and this whole rating system is an outdated concept that needs to go away.

It’s not 2004 anymore.

[Lolburst-zuljin]

your reply is just noise.

A healer with zero rating should be considered a 0 rating mmr, let them roll some 900 rated people before sticking them in with people trying to improve themselves; except when a healer is a keyboard turner vs someone with two hands and a brain, the match design dictates that the dps will go 3-3, and the healer that isn’t disabled will go 6-0.

[Nekrøn-maladath]

I won 3 solo shuffles in a row last night on my rogue and got zero rating for those wins. Then i did a 4th rss and got my butt kicked…lost 65 rating…WTF. Meanwhile i swap back to my lock and que up and win one and jump 200 rating I dont get it

Zero mmr doesn’t really exist.

@Lolburst-zuljin

What, at 1400 mmr?

[Whitewizard-undermine]

I hear you, same-same here, and in general a full SS run is a decent time commitment (cue time plus 6 rounds), then as reward for “winning” the majority of your rounds you get…nothing! It’s just not a good PVP mode right now in my opinion.

[Holycow-uldaman]

@Blacksimba-area-52

Really though, how do healers gain rating? are you guys climbing going 6-0 every lobby or something??

That’s the goal/dream after I git gud.
