Actually I have some consistent fun with Doc just playing normally. But he's the only one I can have fun on. I also do use different strats seeing as I play Legion, Plague, Deathslinger, Oni, Pyramid, Doc and Demo, who almost all play fairly differently overall.

Yeah, I guess. Boy does it suck right now though.

The problem is that all I get is people who are leagues past me. Taking a break won't change who I'm paired with.

What it changes is having just some mitigation of it, since there are people who will play ranked to win and casual for fun. Those who do the opposite are just mean yeah, I know that and would still expect that, but I've played the ranked and unranked for plenty of games and there is a fair difference between the two…

Yes there'd still be people playing for optimal efficiency, but it would be severely mitigated. Ranked is there for players to show off their skill in the game against one another, casual is for people who just want to play and have fun as a top priority. I understand some people derive their fun from winning, and there's…

I never said that people shouldn't be able to SWF, the defining factor of casual is that you're not playing to win some higher ranking. I just have a problem with super competitive players really, but it becomes especially apparent when it's a group of them for obvious reasons. Sorry if I had mislead you.

Thing is I don't wanna be forced to play like that. Nobody should be punished (besides people being toxic), there should just be some kind of line between playing to win and playing for fun.

I totally agree with this! I don't wanna stomp out anyone's fun personally, but I also wanna have fun myself. SWF isn't something I'm thinking needs to be changed, I just think there should be casual and comp queues.

Which is fine. Queue times wouldn't increase hyper-drastically, a lot of games offer casual and comp queues and I can find my matches for either queue in them within reasonable time.

I don't agree that it is cheating, and I fully acknowledge I'm not good at the game! That's why I want a separation of casual and competitive. It is possible to have civil discussion, I'm having it right now with you!

Except there are plenty of games that perform just fine with a casual and competitive queue. I'm also not saying SWF is cheating, it's just unfun to play against when the sole purpose becomes to win. I'd be OK with the longer queue if it meant having more fun on the game that I bought to have fun on. Again I've no problem…

Comment left by future me to reinstate that I said I've never been too active in the community, hence why I only just made this account today :P
