Check the dates and times on these matches. I have somehow figured out how to get the character pick that I want every game. I know other players are struggling to even try a new hero. Well I cracked the code. I got 4 games in a row on Mina. I thought "No way is this a fluke, lets try it with Paige". Sure enough 4 games in a row on Paige.
Unless Valve is data mining and giving some accounts bias. This is all I did
- Most players are marking all the new heros high priority. I think this is confusing the system. Don't do this
- This is what I do to play the same hero over and over again:
- Mark your new hero pick Priority 2
- Mark another new (ideally doorman, heavily contested) Priority 1
- Select 3 other non-new heroes with no priority.
Once you get a game with the hero of your choice, don't change your picks. You should keep getting them over and over again. Worked for me 8 games in a row. When I was selecting every new hero at 2x priority. I never got one game with them.
