Sigh. You'd think someone with 2k games would know how to talent build a solo tank Muradin. Didn't go for a single tank talent at all, face jumped the enemy team solo who had a Kerrigan, Anub and Lunara in it. He died constantly and I couldn't save him because he kept jumping away from me. Didn't peel at all. Not once. My Morales had zero protection.
And our Nazeebo had only 350 games played and had zero clue how to position. He would literally stand frontline in the middle of the enemy team and wonder why he dies so easily. Near the end the enemy got a boss and tried to push with it. We still had a keep and just got a turn in (BB) so I figured if we defend properly, we might lose a keep but that would put us even. With a little luck we might snatch an enemy hero on the retreat.
Instead, Muradin jumps in face first straight into the enemy boss and the entire enemy team. I can only barely save him when Nazeebo just stands there auto-attacking the boss and not moving with our team. The enemy team promptly murders him and Nazeebo and Muradin both type GG. Yeah, GG thanks to you idiots. Sigh.

Don't worry: Overwatch open beta arrives tomorrow. Then all of the retards and bad matchmaking in HotS will be but a bad memory.

Obligatory complaint: Why cant we get a Ban system in QM somehow... sick of seeing Tracer/Kael on both sides all the games... go to HL if you want to circlejerk please ! QM is for silly, dumb team compositions

1st HL game today, I select Nova during ban phase, explaining how I'm good with her and to not freak out. I never do this because some fuck may ban her. Our captain bans Nova. Then our captain proceeds to ban Stitches our 5th had selected since the start of the draft. So we end up not wanting to win at all because of this troll. We all reported him (he was muted, again when will these fuckers be banned?) but we couldn't win at all, the 5th guy took Abathur to troll back, and played like shit, died in lane without pushing...
The other 2 games were just casual losses with very bad players (yay, Gazlowe). I've won too much on my smurf (from 14 to 5 in a few weeks, 80% winrate with Nova to 4 straight losses now), now I get these punishments games with noobs, it's annoying. In a couple of days I'll start to win a lot again, but damn...

Last 5 games have been either unwinnable comp or someone is an AI. :|

[14:01:36] <Ej> i got reported [14:01:38] <Ej> by half my team [14:01:39] <Ej> this game [14:01:40] <Ej>  [14:01:46] <Ej> good game lol [14:01:51] <Ej> i try to win my lane as thrall bottom [14:02:03] <Ej> they are feeding at blackheart with me holding the 10th coin [14:02:05] <Ej> i ping them back [14:02:06] <Ej> 3 die [14:02:16] <Ej> then i tell them to soak and go to solo my giants [14:02:26] <Ej> all of the waveclear in johanna and raynor [14:02:29] <Ej> come down to giants [14:02:34] <Ej> i ping them back 5 times [14:02:42] <Ej> i explain in capitall letters that theyre missing soak [14:02:55] <Ej> 5 feeds from our kharazim later i get reported for being toxic [14:03:23] <SolidHybrid> What happend with the 10th coin? [14:03:33] <Snugglebutt> he put it up his butt [14:03:38] <Ej> i had it [14:03:40] <Ej> 
this was fucking hopeless, team kept missing ALL SOAK and always fighting them when htey were a talent up and didnt have enough for a turn in. If they somehow won a fight - they chased further only to get ganked on low health and feed all xp and coins back. The worst game I've played in a long time.
and ofc there was a point when the I suppose challenged Kharzim with 7 or 8 deaths was telling me that "Thrall is no laner, Thrall is DPS"

Whenever I mention this on reddit, people call me a toxic player and tell me to learn to play, as I am probably the issue myself.
But, I believe that in ranked play, people are NOT allowed without at least 4 warriors, 4 supports, when they are silenced. On top of that, you cannot end up in queue with a person you just reported. Lastly, reports need to be taken more seriously. The amount of trolls and toxic players in this game is unbelievable.
And the matchmaker feels so gimped. If you dare win some games, you'll be 100% sure you're queued with some person that feeds, goes afk, trolls, doesn't know how the fucking map works, people at Rank 1 who die 18 (how?) times because "Diablo Tyrande op" (maybe dont go push a fort without vision, just sayin).... I can't help but think that the matchmaker has a seperate pool of "Jokers". Whenever a player wins some games, he must be put back into his place, and gets queued with a Joker. The Joker proposes a 90% certain loss, so the player is back where the system thinks he belongs. Oh. And decay old games pls.

Nope, I agree fully. In fact the "counter toxicity measures" led to more toxicity and a decrease in game quality. The toxic guy can easily be muted, but the "orange bubble muted guy" is a problem to his team at least 75% of the time. Get 2 mutes guys on your team ? You've already lost (it happened to me only 3 times though).
One of the biggest problems here is that they don't care. I have an IRL friend who got muted 2 times already, and he doesn't care at all.
Ok, it may sound trivial but since I now have 3 accounts (the 3rd is solo queue only, no friends), doing dailies take time so I wait until I have 3 quests on 1 account to try to do multiple quests at once. So, all my 3 quests on my 3 accounts now are "Play 3 as warrior/assassin/support/spec". Every nine of them. I'm really wondering if Blizzard trolls people who have multiple accounts on the same IP ? So, for the first time since I started heroes, I am skipping dailies.
edit: they solved the silence penalty problem today. :-)

At those ranks pure mechanical skill is much more important than shot calling. Focus on absolutely demolishing opponents 1v1 and use that to make sure all fights become 5v4 by always taking out any stray opponent before any actual teamfight.

I installed LoL yesterday. Hots lately at rank 1 feels bit boring, way to many terrible games that is 100% waste of time. Played LoL yesterday, holy fuck the laning phase can feel really slow actually. Anyway will probably play LoL now for a while.

I tried to get back into LoL. Then I noticed that not having mounts sucks and stopped again. Also, everything is just so slow and rotations are non-existant until I've already fallen asleep 10 minutes into the game. No matter what you say about Heroes, it definitely has a better/more fun game pace than LoL or DotA2.

Just queued QM and got paired up with a group of 4, where two of them were healers. Between the two of them, they healed 80K total compared to the one healer on the other team that healed 110K. Our two healers also died 15 times total.

earned my first silence today after i snapped back at a suicide-happy Raynor/BW duo q whose decision making lost us the game and who tried to put the blame on our Kael

TBH I don't even understand why I never got silenced. I mean I don't insult people but if someone plays bad or insults, I tend to jump on him too agressively. Reports probably somehow decay over time and since I have 3 accounts, it's probably why. Anyway we should try to calm down to have "clean" accounts around mid june.

Trying to improve my rank in HL to get nicer rewards. Two times in two days the last pick person prepicks a tank then switches to Nova last second. GNNNNAAAARRRRGHHHH
My hate for Nova is by now beyond anything I've ever experienced in a game before.

If you don't use swear words they can't do alot unless you keep pointing out their mistakes the hole game. It is a bit annoying because you can get silenced for saying fuck when you mess up. Which is mildly annoying.

This would explain why I never get silenced, since I am pretty salty but generally don't curse much. [well, at least I don't see the point in typing curse words.]
