I Hope Team Que Takes Higher Priority

this is a team based game
I just hope that when the new reward system comes out that it has more incentives for you to play Team Que over Solo Que.

this could help form community’s small and big which I think would be healthier for spvp overall.

my major concern is Team Que wont motivate players enough if your able to get the same rewards from Solo Que, since Team Que does take more effort, requiring more people with lives and schedules to play against other organized teams with everyone most likely using VoiP program.

My suggestion is make specific or better rewards that can only be achieved through Team Que

Team Arena will provide the most gold, followed by Solo Queue, followed by hotjoin.

I believe we’ll be giving specific numbers on Friday’s livestream.

HOTJOIN is getting gold? Lol this will be good.

I’m not at the office so I can’t look it up, but if I remember correctly, you get more gold for LOSING Team Arena than you’d get for WINNING a CA/hotjoin match.

I understand that the team arena format is a higher competition format… but that leaves me lingering with a question.

Are the rewards for playing solo / tournament arenas going to be linked to your rating?
If not the whole argument of rewarding a more competitive scene kind of goes to waste, as really bad people would still get rewarded more in low rated matches.

Skill level is relative. Ten equally skilled players in the lower end of matchmaking are playing just as hard as the top ten players. Their game experiences are identical for their skill level.

This isn’t about rewarding people for being better at the game – that’s what the ladders are for.

I wonder how long it will be before people start afk wall running in hotjoin for money.

We’ve been discussing ways to more strictly police being AFK and leaving the game early. We don’t like the idea any more than you do.
