    Yeah coinflip seems like such a bad decision to make, i mean the first points are designed around being easy to take so why decide a whole game around it? Im surprised they are waiting until season 2 to push out fixes to it too :/

    Is weird hes facing 60s already on a brand new account after only 3 placement games. I won my first 3 too and i was still having low 50s in my next game. Maybe the skill adjustment you get on performance means more than I thought?

    Yeah why wouldn't it? It means that even when we lose, at least I can track my own personal progress and compare myself to team mates and opponents. Would make losses less frustrating, and perhaps even victories which also feel kind of hollow sometimes. If you mean it'll increase levels of...

    Watched seagull and taimou , both who Id consider some of the best players of the game, queue with 2 other people (but not an entire team) into opponents who were only level 60 and be unable to carry those, seagull lost 3 games in a row. Taimou lost rank too. Feels bad that players so obviously...

    Its clear that 10 games is not enough for the system to correctly place your skill level, id say that should be pretty obvious to anyone? I would also say that the variance is probably going to be greater initially for solo queuers compared to a 6 stack, by the sheer fact that running a 6 stack...

    Will be interesting to see if the 'support gets lower rating' and the KOTH bugs are actually bugs or just some sort of psychological effect. The KOTH one definitely sounds plausible, but it could just be a coincidence that people are winning against teams that are expected to be stomps by the...

    Also kaplan said that they had a lot of data for overall hero performance, so perhaps even if Valderen did get all golds in that particular game his performance wasn't that much better than the general average? Fucked if I know really. I solo queue exclusively and placed at 49, stomped a...

    Seems like most 'pro' players use about 10 inches for 360 turns, someone posted a bell curve of the best fps players sensitivities based on 360 turns and all of them clustered not too far off this point. Something about the sensitivity needed to accurately track player movements. I come from...

    That requires your team to die together, near each other. Quite the difficult feat apparently if my pug experiences as mercy are anything to go by. Even with spamming utli status it seems a lot of people either just want to die as far away from you as humanly possible, or not push in at all...

    Did you watch the tournament? Mercy and rein were standard but the others changed drastically, even throughout different points. Mercy is also standard in no-hero limit so I think that just illustrates how strong rez is, and reinhardt always sees a lot of play too. Most heroes actually got to...

    Having sentry classes is not the most fun mechanic, but there's a lot of frustrating shit in this game (roadhog stun combo/mcree combo/snipers/general genji bullshit). I don't find turret teams too bad to fight with more experienced players, even in pugs. Trollborn's turret explodes fast under...

    They said in a video they also sort teams by ping. So maybe according to the MMR you are doing as well as those level 20+s in general, and you have the same latency as them, so it chucks you in with them rather than have you wait longer for a game. Also, you may feel like you lose quite a lot...

    I like the game, pub solo queues are getting really irritating though (maybe its just the weekend). Two tracers/snipers who wont switch every time youre on offense, no tanks/healers. When you do switch to the others, the rest of the team cant kill anything, because theyre terrible. So you...

    Could do with another healer, tank and offensive dps before launch imo. Solo queue is the absolute worst though. Just a non-stop cavalcade of retards playing hanzo, widow and tracer on offense, dying instantly. So you pick heals and none of them can kill anything. You pick tank, and no-one...

    I found a good genji completely decimating (i am not a good genji). I really enjoy tracer and feel fair on her, but she seems to be able to be picked off quite quickly. Whats the strat for carrying on tracer? I poke the pokeables but it seems quite hard to do anything effective on offense...

    Yeah, I feel your pain. It reminds me of HOTS in that respect, sometimes you are just utterly crippled by your team mates. On the other hand, I was having a rare pharah day (I actually really like her, my first online fps was quake), and a good mercy never left my side the whole game and god...

    Yeah Lucio is definitely great, and I always end up fucking playing him because no-one else ever wants to play heals, and I just know that if they have a Lucio and we don't its pretty much gg and my competitive streak won't let me just say fuck it and play something else. On the plus side, he...

    Lucio feels great, to the point that I don't mind jumping on him since as usual no-one else ever plays support in solo queue. I'm not sure if he's excellent, or just good for pubs, but either way I hope they bring the other healers up to his level instead of nerfing him if necessary because...

    Game is fun, im fucking bad at it though. Does anyone else find attacking a bit of a slogfest, more specifically when they just fill up with bastions and torbjorn who seem absurdly good at defence and it feels very hard to get through? Mei is by far my favourite character, but I think...

    Yeah, my friend gave me his account to play from rank 40 because he's a decent player but played a lot of games when he was new and so got a really low rank, and was having a lot of trouble getting out of 'elo hell'. I don't know what it is about those ranks, but so weird going to a place where...

    I love lunara, took her to 10 already. She is absolutely a pub-stomper. With no organised focus on her, and her spore talent for clearing waves, her poke, range and crit talents just make her a beast. Combined with QMs lack of awareness/general picking ability, she is god like. She really...

    I hate the players who give up after one lost objective or set of ganks. The amount of games people have typed "its over" or "gg" just because we lost one objective or died is unreal. Or the toxicity straight after the draft if someone picks a hero the whiners don't agree with. I just mute...
