I've had cases where the enemy team had a Tyrande or Tassadar and we had no Support at all. Same thing with Warriors (I know Varian is an exception but D'Va counts as a Warrior doesn't she?). | ||

Either they must have incorporated some of the soft definitions into the roles or it is just the system saying I'd rather put you into a game than not. I've seen games too where we have Sonya and they have no warrior at all. Makes sense if you consider her a bruiser and not a pure tank, but is generally unfair because kinda tank is still better than no tank. Tyrande and Tass too aren't/weren't considered solo support viable for non competitive games, even solo tass was only run so often. | ||

At least the toxicity and idiocy in QM is a tad lower than in HL for some reason and there are times one simply wants to play a certain hero. | ||

I must say my games are very pleasant. (Almost) No flaming, trolls or AFK people. Good effort on both sides. Yeah sure some bad players and some wonky QM comps but nothing mayor. I don't play most of the newer heroes but most seem pretty cool and balanced. Also no crazy meta. Maybe I am just lucky or its the 'end of season don't care' attitude but the game to me seems better than ever (and I allways liked it quite a lot). | ||

After I started auto muting everyone in all my games, my HOTS game quality has went way up. If they can't respond to simple pings and watch their own mini map then forget them, they are already hopeless, verbal communication will do nothing. QM comps are retarded atm though, just change the QM so that when one team get's a Varian at the very least the other team should get some type of bruiser like Artanis or Sonya. Getting matched with no front line at all vs. a comp with Varian just is hilarious to witness, such a stomp. | ||

Remove a draft completely, put bunch of random people together that pre-picked a heroe, and most of the time the comps will be sub par and weird, but it's better than it's been in the past at the very least. | ||

It's just quick "fun". No tryharding I've won with some ridiculously bad comps and lost with some decent comps. Just play your best with the hero of your chosing and enjoy... If you can't enjoy, then QM is just not for you | ||

No tryharding I've won with some ridiculously bad comps and lost with some decent comps. Just play your best with the hero of your chosing and enjoy... If you can't enjoy, then QM is just not for you Yea, QM is for when you just want to play/train that 1 hero/combo regardless of the outcome. It's for shits and giggles or training. You have to adjust your mindset when going in: you *know* it's likely going to be a shitfest before you queue, so just go with it (which of course doesn't mean "be a throwing assclown"). The only thing which annoys me in QM are 4 or 5 man stacks with premade try-hard comps. I mean pfff really. When my friends and I do QM we always just pick whatever, (we mostly do make sure to have at least 1 warrior and a sup) so we often go up against other larger pre-made teams. When they do have an actual thought out comp it can get annoying, but on the other hand when we dismantle them anyway it's pretty satisfying. | ||

That's because everyone always wants to play assassins, and not enough people queue as sups and tanks. Can't put a sup on your team when there aren't any in queue. The enemy team having a similar comp is a feature of the matchmaking engine. It's to ensure matches are as even as possible. All assassin matches tend to be pretty fun and volatile anyway, so I never mind that in QM. | ||

I do find it amusing when I'm peeling like crazy for my team only to have some random assassin whining that I'm not diving into the enemy team (leaving our backline completely open). Assassins are the most straight forward to play in QM though, you just try to kill enemy heroes (the hero itself can still be complex as all hell). Heroes with self-sustain such as Gul'Dan tend to do better in QM as well as they can end up in games with no healer. Same for Leoric, Thrall and a few others. Varian and Sylvanas seem to be the biggest QM breakers as Varian can be a tank with no tank on the other side and Sylvanas allows any victory to escalate into pushing forts. | ||

The system really can't handle this group of in-betweeners which often leaves one team with a role filled which the other team then entirely lacks leading to rather one-sided matches. It's really amusing getting a Tass when the enemy has Malf... Usually if I am playing Varian and the enemy team has no tank I just go yolo twin blades... But most of the time both teams will get a Varian or Tyrande... it's just Tass that's utter cancer | ||

Wonder why Abathur is in that list. Depending on map and team comp he can be a detriment rather than an advantage to the team. And that is excluding player skill on him. | ||
