I'm playing blitzs with chat disabled

I’m sick of always getting all the abuse thrown at me being the healer in blitz. My heals are on par with all the other healers. But even when my team doesn’t do the objectives and the enemy team does, it’s always the healer that gets the blame.

I might get reported alot with chat being disabled with not being able to read instructions at start or in mid game. But it’s a risk I’m taking since I get TONS more abuse than I get any instructions.

It’s a more peaceful way to play.

It’s odd, because I’ve received 0 abuse in many matches healing in blitz.

How interesting it is everyone gets such different experiences :melting_face:

So your solution is to sabotage every group you are in by being blind to their calls and plans. Got it.

I hope every single team reports you for griefing.

So what do I do? Put up with the abuse? I play the best I can all game, it ain’t perfect but nor do they play perfectly. I don’t play much at all anymore, but I want chill games.

And it’s not my fault I end up going from 2k mmr and win 5 games in a row and end up with 2.9mmr wtf is that? It’s always the teams that are 2.4+mmr that are abusive. I want to stay at around 2k mmr for chill games. And only way for me to do that is to purposely lose high mmr games but I don’t want to do that, I want to try my best every game. But it’s never good enough for alot of people and they have to express that. And I’m done with it.

You can report but nothing ever gets done and you know it.

I have to read all the abuse in chat incase 1 out of dozens of horrid comments might be a “call.”

Yes? Or, wild idea, report them and focus up if it’s ‘abuse’.

That’s not how rated content works.

Considering that I have literally got a permanently banned account for toxic chat, then no, it is objectively false that ‘nothing ever gets done’ and I absolutely know that.

I’ve played 200+ Blitz’s across 2 Priests all the way up to 3k MMR and I have not seen a single player getting ‘abused’. Questioned and criticised, yes, but not ‘abused’. Now that’s not to say it hasn’t happened to you, but maybe you ought to think about why you’re being abused if it’s so frequent? If you know you’re doing nothing fundamentally wrong, then why bother caring? Just ignore and keep playing…

If you can’t play play with the group because of the sabotage because you can’t read the chat you just sabotage anyone else because you just do what you think is best.

If you don’t want to do group play then don’t join one.

But I get you, there’s a lot of frustration right now. People get pulled into low-cr games that tank their cr and get just railed up.
However if you can’t get groups that match your cr you can’t learn.

How did you make sure you get matched with people on your rating?

There’s no making sure. The MMR is unbelievably random, some people win 15 in a row and are 1800 MMR, others win 10 in a row and go up to 2700, it’s so weird and idk what’s going on with it.

OK that’s just painful. The matchmaking makes any energy put into blitz wasted.
Why invest time to improve when it’s all random? I went from 1745 to 1573 in 1.5 days.

It just doesn’t work that you punish people when loosing in a low cr game for loosing with a team that doesn’t play right.

Here’s a thought, just ignore the negative moaners, and just read tactics instead of disrupting the game (gameplay sabotage)

Disabling chat is a no go for RBGs.

its the godcomplex that starts around there for some people who think they are playing 1v10.

But how about just ignore these clowns instead of griefing your team?

Overall i would say tho bgb is very toxic free compared to any other solo game/system i have ever played. sometimes the most clueless bot in the team flames but thats all

Surely it’s not just about reading/reacting to calls, but also giving them.
How do you call #inc? -or let the team know if you saw something pertinent?

Having said that, are Blitz’ even grouped based on common-language speaking servers? I’d assumed teams were mixed with people who may not speak English natively.
I’m not sure players should be reporting people who don’t/can’t read chat.

there is an ignore feature, its been there since i believe the start of wow, and should definetly be your first thought when dealing with people you dislike

I also think people overestimate the amount of useful information that is written in chat. I don’t turn it off, but I might as well

Like in real life, imagine.

hunter 1 caps fel reaver ruins

me (healer) and DK go to draenei ruins, they cap it, but manage to CC them long enough to take it off them

free win tbh, too ez - even got the flag in mid. hunter 2 has that.

runs straight to fel reaver and caps it instantly. we got 1 tick of 2 base points :slight_smile:

enemy team immediately caps the other 2 bases, hunter #2 grabs flag again and dies with it. enemy team holds flag and both bases and wins.

hunter #2 types “whole team doing nothing gg dont queue again”

In fact that I like solo RBG and Arena queue, I must admit that toxicity of players it’s a Blizzard fault.

Lets see why!

Why ppl want’s solo queue? Because they frustrated find a group. when season starts groups formed and rush, when it’s easy to crush brackets. After… everything going slow. And people, especially experienced people struggle and become angry.

The problem is that in Blitz many people who can’t play, do not know BG mechanics and so on… and you lose even if you push so hard. In addition you have very stupid MMR:CR in this game (I mean literaly, for a years), and MMR hell it’s not a joke.

BTW for people who says that MMR hell not exist I recommend learn stats how many people players wow, PvP pool and which percent of players actually get 2400+

So, we have angry people on BG, who doesn’t understand their roles and BG mechanics, and when they lose they blame players who bring less damage, bad healers, whoever.

That’s on low CR makes blitz and even RBG (in my previous years of gaming) very toxic! Young people is very often rude and disgusting.

Why Blizzard fault? Because you simply can’t count only win/lose as teams in solo BG queue, even me who try be polite all my life sometimes burn so hard! Not in chat, in form couple times. SO good idea, Solo RBG, to avoid rush for CR full of toxicity and endless search of “your” team you can just queue… but no! They screwed up so good idea :frowning:

Its always EOTS :smiley: Had a simillar thing with a warrior who went to enemy base with the flag then flamed the team
