And whatever it is, I shouldn't have loss streaks of like 15... that's really annoying. | ||

It's ridiculous how many people blissfully ignore what's really the name of the game, team-based objective play. Everyone wants to be the fucking MLG star damage dealer and play offense, everyone and their mother is playing Pharah on every map right now, and NOBODY FUCKING PLAYS THE OBJECTIVE. I get gold and/or silver medals for objective time + objective kills in like 95% of my games, even when I play Junkrat or Tracer, it's ridiculous. I enjoy playing a variety of characters, and at this point I consider myself well-versed with the majority of heroes in the game, but I don't appreciate it when I'm forced to play a certain role because everyone wants to play superhero. | ||

Get on mic, encourage your team, communicate objectives and enemy locations, stay positive whole time. Pretty soon you'll find yourself in a full six stack playing with people who are willing to work together. It's a lot more enjoyable and QP is still utilizing MMR so the people you're playing with should be around your skill level. | ||

At this point my QM mmr is full of rank 60-70 people who don't care about winning and just want to play classes they're bad at, myself included. If we happen to want to take a game seriously, generally any attempt to win is considered "try hard" (wouldn't want to do that!). There usually is 2-3 people on team chat max, nobody cares. I want to get decent at pharah but it's literally impossible because everyone wants to play bullshit like Hanzo and Zenyatta. I end up having to switch to my mains because we get destroyed too bad when I suck. And then we still lose because Hanzo is shit. | ||

Was on the unlucky side 10 times in a row, even lost to a double Mei comp. All back to normal now thanks to the power of duo que with a good carry. Well she can actually hit targets and knows the game. Doubt I break the 80 this season though sigh. But might get enough games for 300 purples at the end of the season. | ||

Several times now we have destroyed enemy team round 1, everything going our way, no morale issues, no one raging or anything. Then someone fucking leaves when round 2 starts and we just slowly lose. | ||

What annoys me much more is the trifecta of "I can't aim"-DPS heroes: Junkrat, Torbjörn, Mei. Since those are more cerebral heroes and "just" need map awareness and situational awareness. But hell I'am always hoping when someone picks one of those (which is way too often), that the Junkrat will not randomly spam his potatoes around but cover a choke point or a tight entry, that the Torbjörn will not expose his turret and that the Mei will not put up random walls but instead tries to cut people off. Hope doesn't last long. | ||

What's really annoying is when the last guy realizes we need a tank, picks Reinhardt, and goes full yolo-mode charging into 4 enemies at once. After all, who needs shields. I've also realized that if we don't have a support and the last guy doesn't like playing support he will always pick Zenyatta as our sole support (which usually causes me to immediately swap to Lucio/Mercy because I like winning). | ||

Reinhardt is one of the most frustrating heroes to play if you have a bad team, prolly second to Mercy. You often end up in the open while your shield gets wrecked because you had 2 "flankers" (excuse for bad positioning and getting outplayed) dieing without impact or because they dont pick off a target while shield is up or Lucio not giving speed buff etc. It is often better to just kill one of the targets and draw some fire before you die with Rein in those situations. | ||

Once I got in the mood to play some Reinhardt, I had some really good games, but one of my more recent ones was rage-inducing. We were defending point B on Anubis, and I was blocking the front entrance (of the objective itself) no questions asked. All my team had to do was sit behind me and watch the sides. What do you think they did? Hint: they ran out way past my shield, all died piecemeal, and we lost with like 3 minutes left. I even saw them all going in different directions as they continued running away from the objective, it was amazing. People still chase kills like its Call of Duty. | ||

If the map is more defence sided on the first point and your team has to attack... Well tough luck buddy. If you can't take the point in one attack, well I guess then you don't deserve to win and all you did for the rest of the match doesn't matter. Blizzard logic. The best part of sudden death is on maps where neither team takes the first point within 10 minutes each, and suddenly you now get 1.5 minutes to take the first point again xD Like that's going to happen | ||

I hold the point on Hollywood defense all the time. Also in my experience it's possible to hold point A of Hanamura and Anubis, though not super likely. | ||
