Options to refuse to play against premades. | Forums

[WFL_M4sT3R_]

Ok, so I am just going to say it. No one, except the premades themselves, like playing in matches with premade groups who essentially run around being gank squads and draining all the fun from the game for anyone not them.

So, easy and simple solution to it. Just add an option that allows people quing for team mode to refuse to be grouped with premade teams. You could even have a setting where they can pick between refusing to play against the groups of 3 or 4, but still allowing twos.

Also, if your best argument against this is essentially "But if you include it, people will use it." maybe you should have thought about that before supporting deathballers who convince people to leave the game within a week of them joining

Signing that one with capitals!

select hero first and then find a match not find a match then u can select your stronger hero or your weak hero for the match . Let’s match maker value your gear and reputation . Premade games with friends usually works better as a team there is huge advantage in this .

Thanks everyone for the feedback! What are some of the benefits to have a pre-made option and solo que? Are there any players who thinks matchmaking should stay the same?

Imo the only concern would be longer waiting times I'm 100% okay with that
Well for those that don't like grouping up like myself would just make it a level playing field after two games you could randomise the teams. your match making would also work better as it stands now a pre made joins your matchmaking you chuck solos together to try and balance a game it won't ever work properly trying to balance a game were you have a wide rep and skill range is impossible an eg from my previous game a pre made 283 200 147 110 to solos 161 159 102 40 ik rep doesn't mean much but from a solo point of view you can join against a premade and your entire team leaves after there first death doesn't make you want to sit through the matchmaking proccess again

I can see where you're coming from, and at times I would support this, but I have to say no. If you do this, how can you play with your friends if you can never find a match, since everybody else has this option turned on?

What, no one has a premade team BUT you? I would beg to differ!

Play fair or don't play. Enough is enough.

Just quit when you see they are pre-made, like banners or name tags.
I will leave them playing VS bots every time.

That's not a solution thats just part of the problem that would increase the amount of rage quitters and ubi would respond by increasing leave penalty instead of tackling the issues that cause players to leave a game

I'm fine with matchmaking staying the same. However the first post does make a good point about it being easier to coordinate a deathball and the loss of player base by supporting or ignoring this detail.

[CRIMS0NM0NKEY]

Not that I care either if it changes or not but something that hasn't been said is you can effectively smurf while joining a lower rank party so an individual playing alone might end up playing 3 players in a group that are approximately his equal and the other 1 in the group might just be a god like player who could carry his team alone if he had to. It really depends on who is host the group from what I gather.

Life isn’t fair. Why should I play fair and conform to your imaginary set of rules?

It's not only that they coordinate better for objectives. Far more of a problem is how they can handle ganking.
A premate team can go as far as to plan on when and what attack a ganker throws, who is feinting to confuse and who let's attacks fly. It's a pain.
