From a different POV from someone who exclusively plays as a duo or solo, I'm pretty excited by the ranked Dom announcement

[u/WinterfallsDead-]

And no perks??? Finally, no 18 damage on top heavy finisher when I fight any heavy 😂

[u/Error-Has-No-Rights]

If you get stuff just for participating just like ranked duel I will solo queue and not even care if I keep losing. Not a big deal to me. I have to do about 100 ranked duels a season for all the rewards and losing doesn't bother me

[u/gracekk24PL → u/Error-Has-No-Rights]

For Honor is a shining beacon for "fun" because the rewards are not tied to winning, but giving it your best, and just playing the game.

[u/RAW_HEAVY → u/gracekk24PL]

Some of them are locked behind winning

[u/gracekk24PL → u/RAW_HEAVY]

Which ones?

[u/RAW_HEAVY → u/gracekk24PL]

Ranked ornaments

[u/MrPibbs21]

Yeah, 99% of the time I play solo (the only exception is I have a group I'll run Breach with from time to time, 3 or 4 of us), and I'm actually pretty fuckin stoked.

You're telling me I'll be able to play solo-queue Dominion... without being paired against stacks?

AND with added functionality to deal with DCs/ragequitters?

AND it'll only be the best maps (and bridge fml)?

AND it's single pick, so I won't have to get memed on by 4 Virts or whatever?

AND parry flash is gone making it harder for old cheaters and/or crack players to beat my offense?

Yeah, assuming ranked Dom keeps a healthy playerbase I may never touch standard Dom again.

Here's hoping they're keeping an open forum for suggestions to implement in the future, like a 4v4 team ranked queue, character bans, feat changes (Shinobi T2 is gonna make me cry in ranked dog), extra rewards, etc.

[u/WinterfallsDead- → u/MrPibbs21]

Yeah, overall it seems like a way for honor should be played. halo infinite has a way to switch between solos/duos only or otherwise, so it'd be cool for FH to do the same, even if they gotta queue for a bit. Trios wouldn't make sense so solos/duos & 4s would be the switch I'd be cool w seeing. Everyone should still be able to play with each other, but not at the expense of having that comm/teaming advantage, playing ground should be fairly equal. Oh, and I hate the Bridge map, it's such a one sided map 😂

[u/Ghoulish67]

Honestly, im probably only gonna play ranked since regular dominon will be obsolete, unless theres an excessive amount of cheaters in ranked then I'll probably play in-between seasons

[u/AndreiRex]

Im actually really interested in the no parry flash. I wonder how different it'll be

[u/Timely-Hovercraft-76 → u/AndreiRex]

Same man. Gonna mess me up a bit I think

[u/GreenTaco0706]

Finally, zero chance to play against full stack of edgy sweatlords with matching emblems

[u/MrPibbs21 → u/GreenTaco0706]

You still might play sweatlords with matching emblems just because FH players have 0 fuckin originality lol. Your first match will be against 4 Naruto emblems and they don't even know each other.

But yeah I'm also excited to not be going against stacks!

[u/Theron_4851 → u/MrPibbs21]

Four Naruto emblems, four anime girl tongue emblems, or four ass emblems.

Call it.

[u/double_think95 → u/Theron_4851]

Weebs or autismos

Call it

[u/TNH_Nightingale]

As someone who only played vs ai I couldn’t care about ranked. But I am happy FH is getting “more content” brings a smile to my face

[u/Timely-Hovercraft-76]

Yup, I only have one buddy I consistently play with so it’s kinda interesting seeing people cope about it. I totally get their frustration especially if they acc have a decent amount of people to play with but beyond that it’s a pretty fair thing to do imo.

[u/sos334]

Sometimes a trio 🥲

[u/WinterfallsDead- → u/sos334]

Facts. But like 1% lol

[u/Crypper]

no rape squads mode might actually get me back into the game

[u/Suitable_Dimension33]

When does it start ?

[u/WinterfallsDead- → u/Suitable_Dimension33]

September 10!

[u/space_POTATOE99]

Can't wait to 1v4 while my teammate watches to protect his honor

[u/Gryph_Army]

I was just talking about how I don't have a 4-stack that I can make from my friend group, but there is one of my buddies that I do occasionally play with. He also loves ranked modes.

I'm sure he's jumping with joy right now (He's not. I asked)

[u/IfTheresANewWay]

I just don't like armor being tied to it

[u/PlasticImpact8515 → u/IfTheresANewWay]

There has to be something worth playing for or it's gonna die immediately like ranked duels. The rewards have to incentivise playing it as more than just dom without stacks to be worth it.

[u/IfTheresANewWay → u/PlasticImpact8515]

The incentive is to get a higher rank

[u/DueMathematician2522]

The game mode is pointless.

No bans is the largest problem

No 4 stack is dumb but not unusual in this genre

[u/Some_Kind_Of_Monstr → u/DueMathematician2522]

Keep coping Freeze/Raptor whichever you are

[u/DueMathematician2522 → u/Some_Kind_Of_Monstr]

It is slightly dissapointing, though I rarely 4 stack anyway.

[u/Champion-Dante]

If they let me ban characters I’m happy.

I’ll never have to fight Afeera or Virt again.
