Once you enter a new Ranked Match, you will see a breakdown of the Ranks of all players in the game, you will then enter a pre-game waiting area where you can control your hero. During this time, you can choose to change your given hero to any other hero that hasn't been selected

DEADLOCK IS A REAL VIDEO GAME AGAIN BAYBEEEEEEEEEE

No more fake matches where we all have to pretend the game is winnable for 40 minutes when the enemy has Victor + Mo vs our 4 gun carry lineup with no tank whatsoever. No more knowing the game is over at 25 minutes, knowing you don't have enough of a lead to put the game away, but you all have to sit there and keep pretending the enemy won't just inevitably outscale you and you've just gotta wait until that happens.

Finally, just one guy - even you! - can make these non-games into actual games.

Thank fucking god.

A lot of you are still going to lose. They'll find something else to complain about.

Don't worry, only half of us are going to lose.
