Character priority

[𝕰𝖘𝖈𝖆𝖓𝖔𝖗]

For the past 20 games I havent been able to get the character that I want. I have 1 purple and 2 white priorities but I never get my purple one. Is anyone else having this problem? The character that I'm trying to play is haze I know its popular but I cant seem to get a single game on haze for the past week.

White means added to roster, yellow is high priority and purple is top priority.

You're not getting any credit for the white-list, that just means you are okay to play them. You need to make them yellow, keep Haze purple, then add at least one white to increase the number of lobbies you can be matched with.

What happens then is if you don't get purple for a number of matches(because others made Haze top priority and won the dice roll), it starts loading the assignment in your favour, with purple getting the most of it. By having purple, yellow and white you match more lobbies, which varies the choices that other players have made, including more where no else one has top priority for Haze.

Haze is even more popular than you realize. She is fun to play even when she is weak in the meta, but currently she is the strongest character in the game as well. There is a good chance that every single player in your game had her selected, giving you somewhere around an 8% chance to get Haze. Chances go up a little bit for each player that doesnt have her selected, but even a high chance like 25% can still fail to hit for 5+ games in a row

Also important to remember the other part of the matchmaking, which is ELO. The higher rank you are, the more likely people are going to select meta heroes in their roster

[oh yeah]

It's really weird how it works. It seems like it will give you the hero you played previous matches.

Yesterday I've played about 12 matches (yes I know, day off) with Haze in purple, lash vindicta warden pocket in yellow, and everyone else in grey (yes everyone).

I got Haze 8 times and Lash 4 times.

Would be nice to try haze, but... more than 20 games with haze as purple... 1 game with disconnect =) This hero is definitely fine (90%+ pickrate) =)
