Well great question: Why solo shuffle sucks?
Most people will say is the queue time the problem, but for that @Cobrak give us a great solution, death match during the queue, everyone against everyone, amazing. But that is not the real problem, the real problem is it sucks, dont get me wrong it is amazing for the DPS joining killing people, but it sucks for the healers. Why me will join as a healer in solo shuffle if I can find any dps in the group finder for 2’s, and in 2’s I feel like a god, nobody kills me or my partner, but in solo shuffle I feel weaker by the second and when the worst happen and somebody dies because I cant heal anymore, all the blame falls to me, I’m the bad healer, is I could keep him alive 3 more seconds he whould kill the other guy. Solo shuffle is definily not fun for healers, so they don’t join, then you get the 30 min + queue time.
Ok, my ideia, well solo shuffle is chaos, lets embrace the chaos, healing is not fun because, is never fun being nerfed to the ground by the second that pass, we need to get down the dampening, but if we get down the dampening, the matches never end or take too long right? But if something drops from the sky every minute (or 30 sec), with one of the Thorgast powers of the class who gets it, we dont have time to have choices, is fast, chaos, give something random, but something that make the person feels powerfull and not something defencive, something to do more damage or healing. So you are increasing the power of damage or healing and not decreasing the healing, in this way, the final result still maded by luck, but people will not get the feeling they are getting weaker, they will feel they are getting powerfull.

since you have the option as a healer to do 3v3 with friends or better players, don’t q on solos, solos started for more casual players that wanted to get conquest/rate so they can upgrade gear.
the pvp system still REALLY bad. and instead revamp from scratch, accept that is bad, they keep adding worst features on top to try to patch… developer ego.
once a meta class got high on rate the first few days will keep every other player down, since can’t get the gear, can’t compete with that much difference in always be oppress =(…

Honestly, they would have been better off just adding a GF auto queue bracket for 2s arena with the option to heal or role a double DPS when you queue… That way if there are no healers you can just run a 2x DPS match.
3s RSS all DPS would be a nightmare though… No 3s DPS please.
I like RSS but it needs a lot of work for healers to want to play along.
That’s a amazing ideia, like Arena Skirmish, if has 2 healer, a 3x3 with the actual system, if is not, a 2’s with 4 dps.
Sat a 5hr que @ 2200-2300mmr 1am - 6am think i went 0-6 after. I don’t think i’ve queued into any other devokers. I don’t know why the devs had to get their greasy hands involved with the matchmaking to the extent that que times are being artificially lengthened to meet their sketchy parameters.
I don’t care if my match is pres pres devoker devoker devoker devoker if they’re all around my mmr and cr, more so than any other player / spec combo then thats who i should be playing.
I feel like maybe they just knew that devoker verse devoker is generally a stomp and they just were scared so they made a special bracket to not que into good devokers.
Really feels like the pvp team is constantly trying to pull one over on the player base.
You see this with late tuning, a “bug” which i believe was 100% a way for the blizz gentlemens club to get full gear in a day with gold via strife tokens, then use the gear to go on an early win streak in ranked and boost their mmr then logout with regular gear or take them off once they were in the clear. No idea whats going on with that and I honestly haven’t been looking at peoples gear bc I don’t care and even if everyone was fully decked out I couldn’t do anything about it anyway
TLDR: devs made ques longer bc they were too shook to que into me devoker v devoker
also 3s is boring and 1v1 would have been way easier to implement than this spaghetti mess
raiding ruins wow, world content kinda boring and is just instanced content via group finder anyway lel.
Oh almost forgot the deserter penalties being made account wide was 100% planned from the start. They made this problem with leavers INTENTIONALLY so they could get account wide deserter in and they will find a way to move it over to RANDOM BGs because 55 year old lonely men are entitled to you carrying them with your free time, and if they can have more severe repercussions for their possy mass reporting you for not ‘respectin their authoritah’ all the better.
Let’s just take a moment to laugh at everyone who said 1v1s can’t be added because they couldn’t be balanced meanwhile RSS has separate brackets for different specs bc they have no idea how to balance it.
It seems like their efforts to make RSS better have had some very negative side effects.
Done Pvping for a little my monk and hunter are just kill targets, it’s not fun at all right now.

I just got 4 wins and got 0 rating. ZERO…The match making value was 150 pts above my mmr. All the other players were higher rated than me minus one that was a little below me. WHAT THE F… everyone else lost or gained rating but me. I waited 50 minutes for this que, actually won 4 rounds into double warrior, DH and me for dps…nobody left… and got shafted anyway. The game before I got 2 wins and lost 48 points… SCREW YOU BLIZZTARD
solo ques are garbage

My first solo queue went of without a hitch.
The next queue, we lost in under 5 minutes.
Just like back in the day. Arena only works when you’ve got a healer who can handle the chaos.
That includes losing LOS on people when they run around pillars.
It’s mayhem and I sure as sh*t couldn’t hack it…
I completely agree to say I’m the best on my main or even my alts would be a lie by a stretch of the imagination but to get to 1600 then get healers who by all means have a easy day especially with my spriest sustainability basically not heal have no awareness of who’s getting trained and how to deter focus using stuns and etc I definitely feel the difference from a good healer that’s picked and doing 3v3’s with a random one…To the point I don’t even care about the rating anymore if the healers trash I take the point deduction and leave lobby with no remorse.
