Am I the only one (who enjoys competition)?!?

Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.

Let go of your fear, embrace the puzzle.

I try to keep it positive, maybe I wasn’t clear there. I hope that no one took my post as me trying to talk trash. Lol

I don’t think people took it as trash talk, I know for me, I simply don’t agree with your assertion. I enjoy competition, but I certainly do not enjoy how they have implemented it. I honestly believe their MMR system is broken, and the most troubling part is that we often hear the phrase ‘working as intended’.

I’m just replying to say that this is a useless and informative subject line and your thread is bad, whatever it’s about. Have a nice day.

That was a useless and uninformative reply. There is no use in leaving such a reply if you are supposedly not going to read the thread and do not know what it is about.

Ahhh ok. Then my post is irrelevant. Thanks for the heads up.

The triviality of beating 2* teams does indeed come partly from OBW BUT IMO an equally large, if not larger impact is the featured hero system. I like NOTHING about it AT ALL and IMO it’s simply a way to try and get ppl to buy cover packs/covers, which is probably rather unsuccessful.

The reason I say this is as follows:

Featured heroes are always 3* heroes so 2* players don’t have them, or have barely usable versions.
Lvl 23 (boosted to) loaned 3* heroes have no match damage, health or damage output to speak of making it basically a 2 vs 2 match.
The AI can’t even get the loaned hero out to soak damage removing any value it has at all.
2 vs 2 is a lot quicker than 3 vs 3, especially if one of those 3 is lvl 212.

IF there is a themed PvP (the gods one, DA one, avengers one, Lonestar etc etc) at least people can field entire teams. Ideally (for me) featured heroes would be boosted in your bog standard PvP but NOT mandatory. So at least it’s 3 vs 3 all the way up and you get a benefit to using a boosted hero if you own one. This allows for a bit more diversity in heroes and a more even playing experience at 1* through 3*. Not going to happen though

Having said that some 3* heroes are so underwhelming i’m not sure boosting them to 212 is even enough to merit a place over more useful heroes, so maybe it would cause less variety in opponents from PvP to PvP… I dunno…

Actually, in the IceIX Q&A he directly said that themed tourneys are on indefinite hiatus because they make D3 far less money than featured tourneys on even very old heroes.

But yes, I so much wish they would bring back 3-hero tourneys. Shield simulator is at least fun that way.

I stopped reading when the op said he wasn’t facing 141s. Then skipped down to see how many different ways ppl yelled at him.

And if u guys think mmr for PvP is bad right now, I just joined a bracket in the pve and guess what?? Top guy is at 75k+ and the most I can get for a node is about 95… … Lol. Well trolled d3 , well trolled. As you can expect, I closed the app and won’t open.it again until later. To try if my highest possivle score ends up being rank #1300 or something.

You joined the PvE on day 5 of 6 and you’re surprised that you’re incredibly behind?

Thanks for giving me my daily dose of laughter at the whiners’ expense.
