Think its pretty common to get placed around 50 (as in a LOT of people are getting placed around that)

Ranked 58. Not bad I guess. Placement matches were 7 wins 3 losses.

EDIT: ranked up halfway to 60 now.

I think you're overlooking that stacks get matched up against other stacks, making games significantly harder. It's a different type of game (less random, more organized) but that doesn't mean it's any easier.

Just picked this up and really enjoying it.

Dabbled in almost all the heroes already but my favourite have to be Pharah and Reinhardt.

Had some very satisfying moments with both their ultis.

Games are just the right length so that it doesn't matter if you have a crap team so my game of choice for a while I think over Dota.

What do you mean? I think it's fun suffering for 60+ minutes in dota with a braindamaged team

Temple of anubis map sucks though, stuck on it for like 30 minutes+ having to deplete the timers etc. But other than that most maps are fine.

5 wins so far on placements, no losses. I find myself always picking Zarya, lucio or junkrat. D.va sometimes on offensive. Varied enough to cover all needed areas. Lucio on on anubis is op, take first point then speedboost to the second one and insta win.

Winning control point maps in competitive only gives you about 5% of rankup. I would suggest that you avoid competitive until this is fixed.

God forbid he plays competitive for fun.
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Pretty sure you play casuals for fun and competitive for competitive fun.

Damn, that sucks. Thats why people were complaining about not getting anything from winning.

Is the reward you get at the end of the match what you consider competitive fun, or is it the actual match itself?

I'm sorry but competitive is for winning first then fun. Also what does this have to do with wanting to skip competitive because its BUGGED? Or do you actually like not getting your deserved win rewards?
