Solo que comp is awful

[Kenny]

When I am able to heal 35k and still lose a comp game, goes to show how bad solo que is in this game. 4 games exactly like that in a row in my first games of comp.

It's pretty bad. We were on the second round and iron man had 0 KOs. I asked him if he wanted to try another hero and he went off the rails calling me toxic and how he was going to report me lmao

[Snows]

it's when you play heal that you focus on what the other players are really doing

i play luna snow and it's terrible, i play quick game
most of them go in all directions, as soon as he loses life he flees

no team cohesion, everyone rushes alone on an entire team and dies lol

i don't think i'm a very good player but hey there is a minimum of common sense to have

I'm not level 10 yet but I can see that a lot of players are doing whatever they want, they're just having fun with their hero as if they were alone, why not?

I can understand why someone with just 10 hours in the game would complain about ranked issues. It’s not really about experience—it’s about how intuitive the system feels for new players. If they’re running into the same frustrations, like being stuck with uncoordinated teams, it’s fair to call that out. After all, isn’t the goal of a competitive game to make it engaging enough that even newcomers want to stick around and improve?

Rivals feel like it borrowed heavily from Overwatch, with some tweaks here and there but not a groundbreaking difference. The lack of defined roles makes it harder to get that team cohesion we’re used to in MOBAs like League or even Overwatch’s role queue

Role queue is bad. Don't add that crap into my Rivals game.

Louder for the people in back. I dont understand why people dont think long term. Adaptability is a good thing. Ive won games with 1-3-2 or 2-2-2. Role queue forces you to play one role and has longer wait times. The only people who want this are low rank players who cant adapt or never switch

[Wanderer]

What are you talking about? I just keep winning. HUA HUA HUA!

[Purple Disco Machine]

Bad games happen, keep trying. What else do you want to hear from us?

I main support, and go vanguard if needed. Role queue would be a godsend because of the four DPS that refuse to adapt and throw the game as a result. Sure, players learning to adapt is great. But most won't, especially in the lower ranks. I've had so many 1-3-2 games with the vanguard raging he can't play DPS. Even had a dude throw to "punish us" because of that. At least with a queue all of the DPS 'superstars' will get to play what they want, and I'll actually get a competent team half the time in solo queue.

i like how people always post their stats and k/d/a like it means anything lol. countering plays and enabling your team in other ways at the right moment is way more important than your stats. im solo queueing as tank/dps (mainly as black panther) and im almost in diamond now.

when you stop blaming your team and ask yourself how YOU can play better thats when you'll start climbing.

and when you have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games (which egos can never accept and will always blame tank etc) stop slamming your head against the wall by dying over and over again and try switching your hero; it also helps you to stay cool. literally half of your losses can be saved if you switched to the right hero and play it well.

clown awarded by silver players who can never ever take responsibility for their own gameplay just because they got a few kills (which they would never even get against gold+ players) oh noo cry me a river

how am i suppose to win games where im solo tanking with 3 brain dead morons going 5-18 on dps

Get on your knee's and pray for reliable teammates when you solo queue. Other wise you just don't lol.

Then you avoid as teammate?

It's like anything else, you have to prove you're good enough to crawl out of the muck. I get frustrated too. But I think about it this way: is my presence enough on this team to turn it into a win? If not, I need to get better.

[지미세요]

I play support - like 99,9% of my games. Luna, Cloack & Dagger. I was plat 1 with 80 points and now I am plat 2.

I don't mind going 1-3-2 and it doesn't bother me that much as long as my team knows what to do but most of the times they don't. I have had many games when my tank goes 1vs6, dive so deep that it's impossible for us to keep them alive because there are also other enemies who will either focus Strategist or they will try to kill someone from my team. My DPS thinks they're in Avenger movie and that they're going to do 1v6 as well. Who's to blame? Of course Strategist - because "WHERE ARE THE HEALS".

Also, Players are not paying attention to what's going on around them. Pings doesn't help, being near team doesn't help either so what else can be done there? Because mind you I am also tired playing againts Spider Man & Black Panther that are over and over in our backline - and that happens very often and we - Strategist - are not getting any help from team. That's why lately I switch to Loki or Rocket if I die 2-3 times - but then once again "WHERE ARE THE HEALS".

People as well have poor positioning, not taking cover, not paying attention to their health bar. - They expect us to do the God's work but they don't realize that there are also 5 other players that We need to keep alive and none of us (Strategist) can go to open spot and risk being killed by the enemy.

It's really crazy for me that sometimes you can have that one nice game when the match is really intense, interesting and everyone is giving their best and then out of nowhere you have that match when your team looks like it's their first game ever.

Also people don't even know what Mantis can provide / do or they think that Warlock is a healing Machine like Cloack & Dagger and Luna. Do players in this game are really that ignorant to not understand that If we don't have a peel from tanks / help from team we cannot provide any heals? Like It doesn't take that much to see what X hero can do but I guess people think that if you pick Strategist you should be walking Ambulance Soraka from League of Legends.

I guess having a MVP or SVP on the screen with a Defeat is far more important than actually playing the game because no one can tell me that if you get to Plat - Diamond you do the same mistakes as you did in lower ranks. Like come on, no one expect them to be a Pro Player but it doesn't take much to understand what and how to do certain things in the game.

This, perfect comment.
don't mind ranking down or being stuck as long as matches are balanced.
People care a lot about this dmg dealt/blocked, MVPs/SVPs when in reality it doesn't matter that much
