Solo q is unplayable (plat 2 elo), we need role q

[Shasel]

40% of my games are trolled by players not wanting to fill despite the plat elo (hard to believe)

Here is 2 simples way to correct it

First add a draft phase with picks and bans, and remove the ability to swap during the game

The other solution is to add a role Q but i think its not a good idea concidering the player base will drop in few weeks

This is exactly why I was very hesitant to pick the game up. Overwatch 2 taught me that team games with ELO match making don't typically end up in a good, positive situation because the ranking structure isn't good.

Ideally you need several leagues bleow the starting rank that are fairly difficult to get into but also pretty easy to climb out of.

What this does is let the REALLY bad players and trolls fail until they're playing with people of similar skill instead of dragging others down with them into ELO hell - while also giving them ample opportunity to get out of 'wood league' or whatever you want to call it.

Don't need all that complicated crap in my hero shooter.

That fixes nothing, what if you're a "good player" who got unlucky and paired with the "really bad players" you'd still get into ELO hell and whine that you don't belong there.

I've been dealing with Matchmakers since the days of Halo 2. Quickplay options where an AI bot pairs up people has always been a problem and a let down for me. Your Randomized teammates ( not completely, but it feels that way ) tend to act randomly in match, and more often then not you'll get at least one aggravating teammate every single time, let alone multiple...

Matchmakers are honestly never good when it comes to teammates. This is why I recommend actually making friends and creating parties yourself every single time a topic like this is created. It is the absolutely best solution for this problem.

Just add bans earlier. Plat is unplayble with hela and hawk ♥♥♥♥.

Alright, listen up. I ain’t here to preach, but if I could throw some advice your way, here’s how it goes:

If you’re rollin’ Tank, stop playin’ 'I’m pretending to be a Tank' with Venom. Yeah, I get it, he’s my favorite, but let’s face it—he’s just a Fat DPS, kinda like Doomfist or D.Va. He ain’t even in the same damn league as Winston.

Instead, pick Dr. Strange. Drop that portal, pop your ult, and throw up that shield. Be the damn protector your team needs. Any other Tank right now? Ain’t gonna carry your squad. Don’t sweat it—he’s not gettin’ Hero-Banned. Why? Because those bans are saved for the DPS heroes.

If you’re healin’? Go with Luna Snow. But if you’re up against a Dive comp, switch to Jeff, Rocket Raccoon, or Cloak & Dagger. Same deal—Luna’s safe from Hero-Bans since they save those for attackers.

Now, if you’re playin’ DPS, don’t pick Hela or Psylocke. It’s too late to master them unless you’re head over heels for their lore or gameplay. They’re both catchin’ nerfs next season, and they’re already heavily banned starting at Diamond. Instead, try Iron Fist if you like Dive comps or Punisher if you’re feelin’ a hit-scan vibe.

There you go—take it or leave it, sunshine. Your call.

Guess your unlucky, since about gold rank most of my games have at least 2 healers and a tank. normally 2/2/2

Unless you are one of those that cause the problem.

There is a banning system at higher ranks. If you want better teams you gotta learn to flex around, this is coming from a Hela main. Im just now learning tanks and other dps (hela always banned)
