Rated Solo Shuffle Update

Why do I have an MMR of over 2k after only playing 1 game? In my first game I was the only one with 0 rating and all others had around 2100.

Consider adding deserter to people who decline the queue or miss it. This is ridiculous.

I played 4 solo shuffle games for a total of 20 rounds, in all 4 of which someone quit, and whatever the punishment is for those who quit, those who stay must be rewarded for their wins.

There is no point in wasting our time without any rewards.

How is it that nothing still have been done about this? All you have to do is give harder punishment for all these leavers… im gettin leavers in like 70% of my games. So wait 5-10 min for Queue then someone leaves. Dont Blizzard understand that any kind of big punishment is better than how it is now. You can tweak it and make sure its well done during the prepatch - just for the LOVE OF GOD DO SOMETHING

This is what happened to me. The guy played 2 rounds against me and then afk all the remaining 4.

Yeah, the people leaving mid arena problem is bad.
I mean, sometimes it takes a long time to get into one.

Buuuut other than that :smiley:

Solo Q is fun asf!

Edit: Said this before the rating reset.

Probably the DPS queue is long and they afk because of that

You guys NEED to punisch somehow the leavers! Its so fun until 1 of the fox just leaving! Alt+F4 : no rate loss for 15 Mins deserter debuff! its not playable like this :frowning:
It would be sooo much fun…

leavers must be punished more
it impossible to play …

I just want to chime in to say that tanks don’t work in solo shuffle. They just create a whole other level of issues with balancing. For example, a team without hybrids and a blood tank, can never win vs a a hybrid team or if they have a prot pally or whatever. Certain classes work better without healers, like affliction warlocks(immortal gods) vs hunters. Hunters drop, afflis live forever. Its bad enough that tanks are viable in 2v2/3v3, but please at least let me do shuffle without getting screwed by some blood deciding to play solo shuffle.

People come out with tanks… Being able to play a tank destroyed this great mode…

I don’t think leavers really care about their rating.

Just give us some points and honor based on the games we’ve won.

Winning 3-4 games , then having a leaver and getting no reward whatsoever, no honor points no rating, that’s what annoys me the most about leavers.

He can lose 200 rating my trouble wouldn’t be redeemed, I’d still get nothing out of my wins

YES Please !! :point_up_2:

Start upping the penalty.

Start making it an automatic ban at a certain treshold.

What you’ve done is not enough.

pls change it that you stil get rating for rounds won and that the leaver goes to 0 rating.
me litteraly got the last 10 shuffles 10 leavers.
even on exciting balanced shuffles the other healer wil stil leave if she is one round behind.
and on games where you win 3/4 rounds in a row they just automatic leave

Start doing this NOW.

This is getting ridiculous.

People leaving just when the game is about to end just to deny people gaining rating or conquest.

Start banning them. That’s the only way they’ll stop. Ban them hard.

Bans need to start going out for them. Not some slap on the wrist type of bans either, 7 days first ban and then 30 and then 3 months and then gone forever.

Chill out Mussolini , it’s a game, solo shuffle is not a jail.

Just give people proper rewards based on the games they’ve won, and make people with 0 win not lose any rating if there’s a leaver.

This would make up for the trouble caused.

  1. People quit makes everyone else suffer because they can’t take a loss and everyone else gets punished.
  2. The tank mode is not working at all. Tanks won’t ever get targeted because everyone goes naturally for the guy with least hp. What is the idea with the tank mode anyway? It is obviously not working.

Today I’ve experienced 4 leavers when I was 5-0 , 5-0, 4-1 and 4-0, with all that matches translating to 0 rating. So when I go winning I get 0 rating and when I lose I have to hope for anyonelse to leave and save me? Because that’s how it is right now.

I think the best approach to leavers is not only punishing them, but making the already played matches count towards rating with some adjustment for the people who lost with them on the team.
