I play it all the time on PC.   Though, been a rough season in comp because the guys I was playing with bailed.   Solo Q is not fun.   I mostly play Lucio/Mercy/Zen/Zarya and Soldier when no one else is DPSing lol.

Solo queue comp is a nightmare. Game is so team based you are at such a disadvantage if one of your teammates throws or doesn't wanna change off a failing character

have a love hate relationship with this game. it can be great but also really frustrating. with teams of only 6 people if just one or two guys in your group are being stupid you basically have no chance to win regardless of how good you play.

the game has some balance issues as well, not that there are heroes that are super overpowered, but there are a lot that are pretty weak. there's only maybe 8 that are good overall, then a handful that are good in certain situations, and then half of them aren't viable and you shouldn't even bother to learn them.

and yet for some reason people insist on playing garbage heroes and then stick with them no matter how bad things are going. in season 3 i played about 80% soldier and even then i'd switch off if things weren't working.

Yeah I'd rather have OP heros and average heroes instead of bad ones because you are right, people keep picking them.   Now some of the bad ones, can be good, but it takes a very good player and unless you're at like diamond+ you won't find many.   Competitive has terrible ranking/ELO, I hate the way they do it.   If you support/tank you get less chances at ranking up and that's annoying.  

Server browser on PC should help in terms of maybe finding a lobby and people to always play with that actually try but we'll see.

I honestly haven't experienced this to this point. Playing on PC, and got the game for Christmas. I lose matches of course, but I can't recall it ever being from group members being "stupid". Level of play might be an issue at times, but everyone I've experienced seems to understand the core objectives and what to do in order to be successful.

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
