yeah,,, kinda hope they just make a ranked que like every other game in existence hehe. but i assume this wont last for too long. i just like learning in less stressful games where i am still being flamed for being bad but i can leave the game knowing my teammates wont be alt f4ing and self harming if we lose. that karmic debt weighs on my conscious.

ikr i play ranked only but i dont think its fair to get mad at someone who is new/playing casually
 
or players number goes up
With the way things are going, it's not happening unfortunately. The game is bleeding players, just like artifact and underlords.
Maybe things will change when the game releases officially, but there're reasons to be skeptical about it.
 
I'm about to stop playing because ranked was the only solace for me. Even if it wasn't perfect. I'm now lumped with and against stacks who do not communicate and roam as 2 or 3 parties, feed and continue to lose the game. This update ruined matchmaking for me since there's no Solo Queue.
 
Also asking for swaps never works. If you play a strong duo laner say good bye to being in duo lane anymore.
 
the invite only alpha game is bleeding players? OH NOOOO DUDE FUCKKKK
Do you really believe that people who want to play are just unable to do so?
Check steam discussion section of the game. Even logically speaking, the more people are already in the easier it is to get in, it spreads similarly to a virus. So decreasing player count doesn't really make sense.

There is still solo queue:

- If you prefer playing with only solos, there is a convar (mm_prefer_solo_only) you can use.

So far I was unable to tell the difference between ranked matches, old regular matches and new all-in-one matches. I played ranked mostly because people who wanted to play the game at least semi-serious played ranked too, but matchmaker still fluctuated heavily between putting you versus clearly less skilled players and much more skilled players. But since the last ranks rebalance I am cautiosly optimistic about this new system. Firstly, per character MMR means less preassure on characters I am not familiar with, and now when all those "serious" players are forced back to the pool with everyone else, I imagine casual players gonna live in low rank, while competitive players will keep playing against simmilarly skilled players. Maybe the system needs more time to adjust?
 
The argument of "game is not at a state to support ranked", is fine, sure.
But the problem is not that ranked is gone, the problem is that MMR is all over the place now.

Thats the problem, I can queue and drop a 30 bomb so that the enemy uninstalls this game, is that what we want?
MMR of our recent ranked games should be used. Not MMR which is completely outdated of 2 months ago when we played normals....
Thats the problem, does not matter which gamemode
 
Пожалуйста, разработчики верните отдельный рейтинговый режим. Невозможно играть в игру, когда люди рыгают и пукают в сторону голосовой связи. Лично у меня нет интереса играть просто матчи. Я вхожу в игру полностью, пытаюсь достичь целей и повысить свой ранг. А когда у меня в команде играет человек и через 20 минут выходит из матча "потому что ему надоело" - это ужас. Я готов ждать матче 20 мин лижбы не играть с мусором в обычном режиме.

Please, developers, bring back a separate rating mode. It's impossible to play a game with people burping and farting in the direction of the voice communication. Personally, I have no interest in playing just matches. I get into the game fully, trying to achieve goals and increase my rank. And when a person plays on my team and after 20 minutes leaves the match “because he’s tired” - it’s terrible. I'm willing to wait 20 minutes for a match rather than play with garbage as usual.

Per character mmr doesnt even work. I queue with my ascendant Wraith, I get put in archon.
I queue for first time ever playing warden, I get placed in archon.

Both times I go 20/0 visible in this post:

Frankly, I dont see a problem in that, by itself. Do you mean that games you are being put in are too easy? As far as I understand, if you win a lot of games in a row you will start getting into games with the higher rank.

I thought they would put people playing a hero for the first time in easier lobbies, yet all my heroes (even those I played in ascendant) are being put in archon lobbies.

And yes that is indeed what I mean.
It is not fun to stomp people, it's possibly bad for the game as well as the enemies might get demotivated after going 0/10.

I even had an (enemy) abraham saying that its his first game trying abraham, he basically had to play against an ascendant.... how is this possible..... Im just speechless. He went 0/12 that game. I didnt even try to kill him.
 
pleas yes bring ranked match back. people were so quite and not talking at all, and when i talk for a bit they told me to shut up. like its even more toxic than rank.

So it still puts you 2 rank lower when you try a new hero, but also 2 ranks lower on your main, and Abrams player who played abrams for the first time got put here too? Sounds like he might have been ascendant as well. I guess the system is built to adjust for player's potential experience, and not put them too low on a new hero or too high for well known heroes. Its hard to tell right now, because it probably needs more time to filter the players together, and ideally it will put high skilled players on top and silent newcomers on the bottom. The fact that rank now updates on the fly tells me it must do that quite soon, but we will see how it goes.
