Hey, i wanted to know if it was normal that people could tag in group on SoloQ , and if yes : why ? It is removing the point of what a SOLO Q is supposed to be , aka SOLO TAGGING.

SoloQ being not solo

People can Q as DUO and I agree it seems odd.

So no news about that after 1 week , i guess its not going to be a good 3v solo server sadly.

Duo Queue has always been around, same thing for different games, which is honestly not any odd.
I imagine that you both did join the server recently or at least started playing Solo Queue not very long ago.
Even then, queuing as a Duo awards much less points per wins, and much more points are taken away with loses.
In such way, you will very rarely see peoples pushing high on the ladder as a Duo, if ever.
Every Solo Queue seasons have been going well so far, regardless of Duo Queue being available.

I personnaly played on differents TBC server with soloQ, none have the possibility to duoQ. A season going well and a good quality season are two different things. Im just an old grumpy player who like to play random, i wont change the way this server decided to work, im just saying that duoQ, regardless of it giving less point when you win , is removing all the interest of the "random" aspect of that kind of arena ( random being a big word because you always see the same class over and over again anyway)

Lmao, this is so dumb.
It's in the name, "SOLO queue", why would someone allow duo q in this or not seeing it's odd

I would also like to know why we cant put people in "avoid list" anymore if we have too high MMR , now i get a " you cannot add new SoloQueue avoids when above 2000 matchmaking Rating" message when i try to, no matter the rating of the guy. Trolls remains trolls no matter the matchmaking rating, so i would love to have an explaination about that ( but since i never saw any response from the staff on that forum , maybe a player would know it)

This change has been up for years, that's a late complaint.
At very high ratings, with much fewer players in queue, you could avoid specific players and classes to manipulate matchups.
It was especially effective when two or three players were doing it together, almost guaranteeing they'd be put in the same team.
And to be fair, once you pass 2000mmr, you're not likely to find many players who're unable to win games.
If you're doing well and carrying games, you'll be gaining rating in the end.

Absolutly not. You WILL no matter the server , play with people that will literally make the arena a 4 vs 2 match. You realise that here, as a DPS its at least 15 minutes wait time to proc a match (which mean btw that for a SINGLE QUEST for karazan, you will wait a MINIMUM of 150 minutes in queue when your MMR is "high") so when you wait 15 minute to lose because a single guy is trolling and / or is like testing a class and dont know what to do, and you cant avoid him afterward, its a little frustrating.
To be fair, MMR should not even exist on 3v3 solo. Its really making the average wait time so long.

I don't believe you do understand what the Matchmaking Rating system is about or how it does work exactly.
You do need such a system in order to keep the arenas and the rating ladder fair.
Without such a system, an excellent player could be facing beginners at anytime, and unfairly gain rating over and over in such way.
Competitive modes and games do need a way to differentiate great from average players in order to match them properly.
If a player pushed up to 2000mmr, he is "absolutely" able to win games.
As for the waiting times, if you are very high rated currently, I would suggest you to queue at the server peak hours.
I am able to get SoloQ games every day so far, even if I am at the top of the ladder.

Ah right, since he mentioned questing indeed.

Personally I don't like an option to DUO que in SOLO que, that unbalanced and not really fair.

Is there some way to reset the MMR on the 3v solo team? Without spam losing on purpose? Those 15 minutes minimum wait time is just gamebreaking.
