Guild Wars 2

This is a PSA. I am addicted to doing it as its the main time I have to play. But please never do it. It is terrible.

Soloq at off hours is a bit rough, since the player pool is so small and mmr pretty much goes out the window.

I do the same and overall it’s pretty much a rage inducing experience. My advice to you is: play a class/spec you can push far with.

I witnessed my first triple cap very very early this morning.

I thought people left that crap in hotjoins.

Me too

In a single (today so that u know it REALLY was a bad one Q_Q) went from something like 100ish to percentage.

Thx god i went up again a lil, matches there are really like hell itself.

Don’t do it guise, really, don’t do it.

Same in the morning and in the early afternoon.
Top100 players getting matched with absolute beginners that make you wanna jump out of the window.
Soloq matchmaking is bad every hour of the day, but at these times it is a complete lottery – it is basically ‘who gets less terrible players’.

I find it ok during the 10 prime time hours, from 2-12 pm I guess. With the recent up tick in the games popularity (probably because of the work grouch is doing with tournaments – although I personally don’t care about that stuff) solo q has been “ok” at maybe 1-2 am too. But after that it is a disaster.

“How do you kill that which has no life ?”

Classic

the team sandbags are probably playing at that hour because they’re trying to -avoid- the skilled players while they learn?

or are sleepy?

idk.

Yea, at that hour, unless you have a strong international showing, most games tend to have a really rough experience. I mean, you have very few people online and many of the people who are playing are drunk, high, or just so sleep deprived that they’re just as delerious, lol.

This right here is great advice^^ for those terror hours.

3am Solo Queue… Y u do dis to yourself :<
Probably better to Yolo Queue at that hour.
+1 on far point. Also advise Cleric Banner Warrior for when sleepy/drunk/high.
Spam chat to get your team to push far and basically rotate there whole match 1v2ing.
Nothing beats Engi for SkyMagNet though.

What was I thinking, worst night ever….

I carry 100% of the solo queue games I’m in, rarely losing 1v1’s, and sometimes managing to 2v1. Your 3 a.m. feelings are my all day feelings.

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

When you play a team game, you agree to the possibility of godawful teammates! You’re not allowed to cry! You can only try to help people get better at this game! That way maybe next time they won’t be so bad!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

The biggest problem is not that you lose and more or less perma faceplaming.

Its the fact that your rating goes down to hell , and as such, you will be playing with the same badies tomorrow at normal time.

Stick to hotjoin or maybe even pveland.

Thats because youre on NA Toker.

Im at similar MMR in NA and EU (around the top 100) and i have to tell ppl not to trio or duo cap pretty much every game on my NA char….while on EU this never happens.
