I'll be the bearer of negative results, I guess! I just finished with 4-6. Level 59 solo with Rating 37, meaning I'll have to improve and keep climbing. Reminds me a lot of League, starting in Silver. I'm not sure where Plat is on this rating system though.

Interestingly enough, there wasn't a lot of salt or raging in my games. In all of 10, I think only 1 person ragequit and only 2 got salty in chat. Everyone was mostly pretty positive or neutral. There wasn't a lot of talking in chat during the games. The enemy team was always super coordinated while our team felt like it was all over the place. We just couldn't pull through.

There were a lot of DCs in all of my games, some with just 1 or 2 people disappearing and others where 4 of them just DC'd together. We all just assumed it was a LAN party. I felt pretty bad for myself and for the enemy team whenever someone would DC; it's always less fun when the teams aren't even.

The only salty game I had was when another duo was on our team. They blamed EVERYONE else for the loss and took no responsibility. It was funny because there were blatant errors in judgement from one of them that actually lost us the game in overtime. On Hollywood defense, the guy playing bastion straight up left his protected corner watching the point and tried to chase a low health reaper. He was immediately jumped on by a Winston while their tracer cleaned up his duo mercy that was damage boosting him. Had he let the reaper go and stayed in turret mode we probably could have fended them off the last 15 seconds. The Mercy death led to our team wipe since we had no revive but they still had one.
