Solo-q and the 'fixes'?

To be honest, i had way more fun BEFORE the fix.
The fun was coming from different sides, by playing every profession, funny builds and trying out combo’s. It didnt come from the matchmaking, sadly, because it was my team with r10s versus r50s.
I had fun playing vs decent people with special things. Sometimes it was 4v5, but that didnt bother me at all, because it was just a single time per week.

So, we had the fix.
Basicly, i played three matches, which all were with leavers on my side.
How am i supposed to have fun? Or wait, how am i able to get on this ‘leaderboard’?
Before the fix i didnt really care about my spot, because the MM was horrible.
Right now i am already at 30% or something, because i had leavers and afkers.
For me this soloq arena is just a pain game.

I hope the patch of 10december is going to be awesome.
The thing is that the PvP community had to swallow many disappointments, hyped patches ended up in nothing, and PvE is getting everything sadly.
For me after this ‘fix’ this game is like not worth to play, maybe im just unlucky that could also be the problem
When i soloq i just want to have fun, not having another match with less people.

I know what you mean. We understand a lot of our higher skilled players are being burned out by playing with people that haven’t learned the game yet.

Once the news comes out on Monday, I’ll be able to explain one of the additional ways matchmaking will be able to help you guys play together.

The leaver thing is what annoys me more, becuase u practically have no chance.

Yeah, we’re working on that as well. We’ve got plans to prevent it from happening before a match starts, and what to do if it happens in the middle of a match. This will probably be covered in the matchmaking blog and discussion unless we feel it merits its own discussion.
