Guild Wars 2

Reasons:

1. Skyhammer: The map ruins the whole experience and causes rage for both teams.

2. Skyhammer.

There isn’t a single reason to solo queue over team queue anyway. There should only be hot join and team queue.

there is

i was last week rank 500 or something in teamQ – and i join ALWAYS solo

its sooo bad than to get matched with randoms vs full TEAM and to see this people in this teams are baddies and jsut win cause they sit in TS and farm

teamQ is broken

only reason to play it is no skyhammer and more rewards^^

Yup, same here.

Skyhammer single-handedly drove me away from SoloQ. Quite an achievement really.

There’s also less 4 vs. 5 in teamQ too, which is nice.

But seeing ANet’s reluctance to do anything about this is probably what hurts most.

@Romek
TeamQ is broken because you are abusing it as soloQ and loose vs premade Teams? Oo
Dat logic

@Topic
There is less reason to play soloQ
teamQ offers a similar experience and better rewards.
If you are good in any of the queues, then you get still the same rewards as bad players… (I know noone except me wants rewards in PvP, sry i’m greedy)
We really need some chance here… Leagues on the horizont! Btw. Where is the CDI for that?

Don’t forget the amount of games where you get stuck in 4v5 matches….

no, because it is possible to join with lower than 5 people and so inflate the system + matchmaking

most teams in teamQ have higher mmr than they deserve and are on spots in leaderboard where they never should be

5 people teams only = fine

but as it is now its broken

I dont understand why people hate skyhammer, if some enemy takes it just tell an ele to tornado him out of the sky…

In its current incarnation, no. If they, in the future, decide to clean up team queues and allow for them to only be full teams then we would still need solo queue. Currently though, team queue, is just solo queue as a way to avoid Skyhammer (which is sad).

As commentary on Skyhammer, when I joined solo queue this morning. The match starts out as a 5 v 5. Two people on my team switch to engineers and literally 3 minutes into the match two people from the other team quit the match after getting knocked off the map. End result was a 3 v 5.

I’ve been soloq’ing on my 2nd account alot lately. And I have to say I’m literally on the verge of just afking every single Skyhammer game that pops. I seriously can not take this utter load of crap for a map anymore, I just can’t.

It’s either that or I’ll end up just stop PvPing all together and WvW roam for my PvP fix.

How is this map even still in the game in it’s current state is beyond me, these forums are littered in Skyhammer rage posts it’s unbelievable, and justified, this map is single handedly pushing me away from PvP. And lets be honest, if one single map is capable of pushing people away from an entire game mode then how about, I don’t know Anet….FIXING IT?

And I think one of the worst things about this map, is losing to people who are clearly inferior skill wise, just because you tanked one single cc by accident it’s game over, gg for you. WP? No, F off.

4. The rating system is absolutely kittened up.

What if we lower the Skyhammer area, so that instead of dying you just take a certain
amount of dmg, while having some of these spring things, to get back up to the platform.
Would this improve it for you? (If you ignore the cc balance)

Only reason to do SoloQ is for the 2 daily achievement points. Otherwise I would never ever go there under any circumstances.

This would make it even worse

Skyhammer & Spirit watch = lame solo queue
