The toxicness is insane on solo

As a learning player i encounter very toxic behaviour of unwanted /w from players that are calling you bad, learn to play and blaablaa hatefull stuff

Today as rogue i had 0 dispells, asked healer to free me more often but again 0 dispells.

Next round i told im bad and ima very bad person. i explained i need dispells when playing against mage as i cannot do any dps. i was 5 seconds in next round and he made 4 ppl report me while typing AFK (lol?) in arena for deranking.

  1. How do you experience learning curves in solo?
  2. how do blizzard allow this by /w ppl in arena?

I just try to keep in mind. I play with teenagers or mentally disturbed people.
They are like NPCs in game, just ignore.

There is no learning curve when disc priest is healing… people can just do their 123 123 123 and still see victory screen. You can learn nothing from those games beside false feeling that you are doing well.

Than those same guys end with other healers and die with ALL defensives aviable, specatculary… because playing with disc put them to place they do not belong.

Its not toxic. Its competitive. This is how competitive games work. Every single one.

Yet they’re in the same MMR-category as you. Just see comments like this as a self-burn, and just smilingly continue with your objective to learn your spec/class in the content you play.

Why you learning in rated content?

There is an actual mod called Silent-Shuffle that will auto turn of chat only during shuffle.
I am not using it right now but if it gets to annoying :>

To make the game more miserable for us.

options > social > disable chat

this is a must for any pvp instance

im a gladiator. just listen to me.

Ngl i think i am more toxic this season then pref.

  • Mmr sucks
    a 2-4 = -35
    & the range is so small that you can have a multi Glad as Healer too face while healing Ferals or SP that pref got 1600 max exp

  • Healer balance is bad → i am Holy Priest

  • fotm speccs every lobby the same fotm specc

I need too activate silence shuffle again, i play way better when only focus on my mistakes and trade all other player as random bots

I just itched out a 4-2 shuffle in a very sweaty lobby with meta specs at 1850 cr

I check my opponents’ online

2800/2800/2700/2600/2600 solo shuffle rating experience

I logged off

I ain’t going through this failure of rating design

Where the reward cutoffs are static, while MMR is dynamic

Just another blatant incompetence in the long long long list of this companies’ failures

Yeah it’s super bad, I just got into Solo and Blitz and pretty much decided to quit like 3 times because it’s not enjoyable if you make a misstake while learning, people are horrible. I’ve played Dota 1, LoL and Dota 2 for my entire life and I can easily say, current WoW pvp is the most toxic game I’ve ever played. It’s not just me getting flamed though, I actually don’t get flamed too much now since I’ve gotten better but it still happens, some people though, jesus they really get it, dumb people not realizing they are killing their own game. No one wants to play with this community so no influx of new players, no players improving, people give up or don’t start to begin with.

It often happens that you read unpleasant insults, but sometimes they exaggerate in a shocking way. Recently in a single shuffle in the black rook hoold a priest “complained” to me because I used the teleport behind the grates (like any warlock in the world does).

As affliction against three unholy Dk, each of them had a good time to insult me ​​in various ways because I didn’t do any damage and I died, among other things in the large arena where the space is very limited

Best advice possible.

If you just don’t want to disable it, check your settings to put whisper in another window.

A learner can be annoying when you try to reach a certain ranking and you are sweating to get there but as a DPS you can bet on a 3-3. But putting your nerves on the poor other guy is not a solution :sweat_smile:

I didn’t know there was an option to disable it, but there should be an option to just disable it in pvp, not in the entire game, I got ppl talking to me lol, I don’t want to disable the entire chat.

In DF season 1 I got tired of long queues. 1 hour + at the worst. Decided to try out healing for them instant queues, and rolled a disc priest.

The amount of hate and verbal abuse is staggering, and eventually made me stop playing completely.

But the cherry on top is that these people who spam abuse are terrible players. It happened soo often that some spastic warrior at 20% health heroic leaped behind a pillar, thereby LOSing me, and letting the dots on him kill him, only to start raging at me for no heals.

Having to break cover to heal some dps who run out of range, only to get chain ccd until said dps was dead. And then next round this numbskull proceeds to call me all kinds of things because I didn’t heal…

Had double warr on my team once, who both ran in, heroic leaped, then charged the enemy healer, not noticing that I got sapped. I typed it in chat several times. Even in caps one time. No reaction.
Of course, one of the warriors got nuked down while the rogue was just sitting on me, keeping me sapped until dr, then cheap shot. When I trinketed cheap shot he just blinded.
And as expected, vile verbal abuse followed. Trash dog. Delete game… etc.

Putting down dome, only to have struggling dps run right out of it. Then the abuse.

Life gripping someone behind the pillar because they didn’t react when the enemy warrior got big and red, only to have them rage at me for disrupting their dps when they’d popped their cds. Never mind that they were at 10% with none of their own defensives up.

I am 100% sure that the main reason there are so few healers in SS is the toxic attitude and the verbal abuse they have to endure to play that game mode.

Had a Rogue in an RBG whisper me saying “don’t ever join RBGs again, you suck”. With me nearly top heals overall, (180m) and Rogue himself had 25m DMG… Top DMG was 300m (Evoker)

You’re gonna get a lot of that.

This its the most brainless think ever too fix it

Every expension the first week a lot of people try out PvP inject ton of games the systhem think thats the status Qo for the hole season, ofc player never touch PvP again and eaven a lot of PvP player Q the MMr is low and people stop q slowley lagg of rewards so mmr stays low

The high season happen when Blizzard forgett too reset the MMr and people see its EZ too get rewards so they play more and more player means higher mmr again

Worst systhem ever
