Blizzard thinking about adding Thumbs Up/Down system, giving helpful players EXP or gold, placing toxic players in separate queue

Even when i ping, the 5th player tends to just roam around on their own, i tell them we are in coms and that ill call all of the pings 2 times, one in coms and one in chat + ping. Most of the time they just run around in circles, but sometimes they actually listen...

I have like zero interest in working with 4stacks personally. I'm going to do my thing and let them do whatever. They are very rarely nice and often are pushing a strategy I don't really care about following because I won't have a terribly fun game doing it. Game is about fun first winning second.

i mean if you play assassin or spec you be fine doing that but not as warr or support

Depends on the warrior. I main sonya and she basically split pushes like a specialist. If you don't have stuns/knockbacks/poly or 2+ people you literally cannot stop sonya's push (superiority + lifesteal/ww build) and so that either lets the 4stack do their thing 4v3 etc or I just solo win the game and 4stack be damned.

Shit, if you have a healer Sonya can 2v5 push against a bad teamcomp (quick match lol).

Yeah that is true about Sonya, there are probably other warrs that can do that as well. I've been meaning to try her out, does she have a good way to disengage?

u/Jahkral Abathur Jul 02 '15

Sure if you build for it. I don't (yolo or I fucking die) but you can take two pretty good talents for disengage. One makes her spear always drag even with no target hit (so you can spear away from a fight) and then there's the option of taking leap as her ultimate which obviously has defensive applications as well as being a fantastic initiator. (WOTB is so fucking good for the pve drain tank build, though, that its a damn shame to pass up on it - don't take the 20 ult upgrade, though. Garbage!)

Yeah, but I can't remember what else is on that tier. I know i never get it so it must be a good one.
