I don't want the time sink of a game like that to be just unlocking characters.
That was one of the reasons I couldn't get into Heroes of the Storm. Short of me just not liking MOBA style games. Getting hard-locked into a specific hero just doesn't cut it for me on a game that can go from 0-100 in the frustration meter once I realize I'm not going to compete with my opponents on their terms.

Also, grinding out a hero just to unlock some of the other heroes only to not like them, or being forced to buy them just seemed... Well, ****ty. A hero that's conceptually fun to play might be dog**** to play and I might not know it until it's too late, or maybe the meta's shifted so hard or other nerfs/buffs of some of the other heroes made the hero I wanted to get less well-adjusted to what the game was currently encouraging players to do.

Also, after the Lucio Ball play mode that came and went for the Summer Games, Blizzard learned that players really wanted to be offered an option to purchase the new player skins and models with the gold they've acquired. Not everyone had the kind of money needed to throw $30-$50 out every time a new event came out in hopes of getting that coveted skin that they wanted. So Blizzard did this by making the skins purchasable, but with a double than normal gold price.

Thought it was a great compromise that resonated well with the player base, and met them half way.

Hash, that is all well and good but I'll believe when i see it. Community tools and making it simpler to stick with people you play well with imo is key.

Im a solo queue upper platinum player and im ok with that. However the feast/famine where I'm at is absurd. One game ill walk to an easy win the very next game i get destroyed... im the same player in both games yet i get drastically different outcomes.

Sure there are a wide array of reasons for this and sometimes it may be me, ill own that, but the huge swings in outcome game to game are extremely frustrating.

I can handle well fought close losses. Hell i can enjoy close losses a great deal. The seesaw though sucks and they need to improve that.

Also i dont buy their bs on wow style queue. Allow people to select their 2 favs and 2 alts they play well. Id be fine with that. Or select their best of each type and make a team that way.

Idk it is just massively frustrating. Although with quick play adopting comp ruleset there is a tilt release valve at least. Like if im sucking in rocket league i can queue into casual and relax. Troll mode quick play made me rage worse than a **** streak in comp. That will help a lot i think.

That's dumb. You need the whole pool to properly counter.

Maybe use an algorithm to pair people based on hours played in each role but even then you're defining a 'meta' that may not be correct

When am I going to ever pick symmetra as one of my roles when I may get a king of the hill map

What if a pharah is pushing our **** in and I only have junkrat

Limits the game, no thx

there are a laughable amount of "x only mains" the worst of all being mercy.

at least the genji mains understand attacking. get a "mercy main" on your team and they are completely useless

I found it quite the opposite.

Seems a little weak, but that might be balanced.

Finally they are going to restrict players to one class per map. I just can't stand ****ing retards clicking a billion times asking for everyone to pick Hanzo or whatever gimmick build they want everyone to play. I don't know how many times I've had to play against six mccrees, or a bunch of meis.

Not to mention the fact I can tell what character (hanzo) that level 14 noob is gonna pick.
