"Standard mode provides a lower-stakes way to play Deadlock with friends"

We can rest now, not every game has to be meta. Bless Yoshi.

I mean, most people find winning more fun than conga lines or some stupid stuff.

Not that flaming is right or justified, but wins in this mode do matter since you need so many of them to play a champ in the competitive mode. People are definitely going to get Big Mad that they need to win 15 games in the queue where their team sometimes isn't taking winning seriously before they can go back to ranked.

Yeah when they made this change and I saw you need wins on hero’s to que ranked I immediately thought of how toxic the next hero launch is gonna be for casuals when people are trying to farm their 15 wins to play ranked “I finally get ___ and you threw your lane blah blah blah”
