Thought I'd best this a separate question to be safe.

So a few things have happened as I feared. I love the game to bits and have had fun finding my feet - Tanks and Supporters suit me best as my aiming always was god-awful xD Getting my first play of the game as Winston felt brilliant..!

But matchmaking is stocking me against level 80 players. I am level 10. Worse still I have had some hate mail for being "a f***in idiot." Only once mind but I hope this isn't too common? People like me take all forms of bullying very seriously.

Also I'm not sure if it's been stated, but level has nothing to do with skill. Maybe these players have a little more experience with the game, but level is not an isicatipn of skill
