31 Gedanken zu „3 ESSENTIAL TIPS for WINNING in SOLO SHUFFLE (and 2v2/3v3)“
  1. I feel like a lot of R1 players are talking shit about soloQ because their egos got bruised over the fact that they weren't R1 there instantly as well. So a lot of the more fragile ego R1 players have an agenda to make it seem like soloQ is just free rating and zero skill.

    In reality, it requires a completely different skill set. There is a lot of overlap of course, but different aspects of the game are emphasized. In rated team 3v3, it's more about setting up goes and kill windows. Only a few comps rely on dampening to win, and they are rarely meta.
    In low rated soloQ, it is mostly down to who can carry their team hardest and be the most aggressive player in the lobby, able to close out games quick. In high rated SoloQ, it is most valuable to know how to survive into dampening, how to peel your team to decrease the odds of a sudden loss. It is more important to play consistent games with no defensive mistakes, doing optimal damage, and winning through eventually unhealable damage.

    It is a bit like in League of Legends. Team 5v5 in league is a completely different game. Pro games and high rated clash tournaments often revolve around team macro plays. What team goes where and when.
    In SoloQ League, low elo matches are mostly determined by individual carry players who just stomp their mirror opponent on the enemy team. Just got to play aggressive and exploit the low skill of the enemy. High elo soloQ is more about playing consistent, and having good macro plays as an individual.
    It's just like WoW's new soloQ. It requires highly different skills to do really well. The meta is very different. But in League, nobody is claiming soloQ is irrelevant or an easier mode.

    I personally even feel like WoW arena should change to prioritize soloQ over rated 3v3. Like the mount reward should come from soloQ. Game balance should be prioritized around solo shuffle. That's because WoW PvP has been dying for years just because it is so hard to get into and play. LFG is a mess. Nobody wants to play with new players. No new players know each other. But solo shuffle has been changing that. There is a reason why the 3v3 and 2v2 ladder have been so deflated, while the solo shuffle ladder is huge. It is a better and more accessible gamemode. It has already made the WoW PvP scene revitalize.

  2. That Intro was so cheesy, but I can't deny I was "Immersed" lol! Narrator guy is a better Voice Actor than I realized. I geek out over people like Matt Mercer and Taliesen Jaffe (sp?) though so I'm pretty much the target audience for a bit like that lol… Now to watch the actual video!…

  3. Only tip you need in solo shuffle and pvp in general is play meta classes.
    For example, tip for 10.5: look at the AWC games,look on the 2v2 and 3v3 EU and NA ladders and you'll see about 5 or 6 classes that dominate all those lists.
    Pro tip: every other class is shit and is a nightmare to play at a moderate rating.
    TL;DR reroll Havoc / Demo lock.

  4. Very good advice again. I'll have to start applying these tips.
    Although, tbh, my main problem with solo shuffle is the terrible queing anxiety. I'm so afraid people say nasty things to me and make me feel shitty for the rest of the day, I seldom manage to actually que. And I know voice would help coordination, but I'd rather go to dentist daily than talk voice with potentially toxic strangers.

  5. 1 essential tip: DONT play a caster 🙂 they're fine in normal 3v3 but in SS zug zug I felt miserable on my lock and sham (I know they're both decent but u get trained 24/7 by 2 melees and healers at lower ratings cant heal that)

  6. Ah, so you're saying that all of the – already weak – Devoker defensive options all get really weak later in the game, except for their Shield Wall basically. Good thing to be aware of, but it also kinda sucks.
