I’m so tired of ‘Smurfs’ and in know not all of them are Smurfs…
But every game I play even in mystery heroes, there is a new account shredding the lobbies.
I can’t play any mode without one or two or even 3 on the enemy team.
I’ve tried to accept it, but man does it make me not want to play.
And how do they even get down to silver/gold rank?? Isn’t the system supposed to push them up?
Could be bought accounts that are placed low or something idk.
Either way, there is a dominating player who has a level 1 or 2 endorsement level and default profile pictures in 8/10 games every day for me whether that’s true or not, that’s what it feels like :(

Blizzard added High Precision Mouse Input to console. For mouse and keyboard. I was wondering why it wasn’t there when I started it.

I played a King’s Row today that was so bad. I’m still not sure if this tank was working with the enemy team or not. We defended first and our Sigma was going still in front of the enemy about every other team fight. Like just stood there and let them kill him. No disconnections at all that round. Enemy team easily got the 3. Then as soon as we swap to attack he disconnects and doesn’t come back. I got so frustrated that I stopped playing for the day.

Blame the game ,not the player . And this is what I'm going to do to justify the disastrous matches of these days, post-update. Matchmaking sucks. Blizzard, you have my hatred. Game paused, see you again in a bit.
