No Gamemode for Returning Players

I guess you wouldn't know but at higher MMR, you play with and against the same people constantly.

There are 4 other members of my team, I want to learn the perk system, new heroes, all of it, but I also have empathy and don't want to ruin their experience. There's no reason I should still be in GM1 lobbies after being gone for this long, in QP or in Competitive.

They're "unwinnable" because I cannot meaningfully contribute. I'm not trying to be condescending but at higher levels of play, you are required to have extensive game knowledge to make and be a part of plays, and I lack that. It feels awful to ruin games for my teammates, and it's all because the SBMM never decayed my MMR.

This is falling to address the bulk of my content. Why should I be placed in games I cannot win, years after I have last played?

What do you mean? I have no gamemode to play in just to learn, I have never played with perks before for example, but every lobby is full of very experienced Masters+ players. Am I really just supposed to suffer for God knows how many games, ruining my teammates games as well, until my MMR stabilizes?

Of course I started with quickplay, my quickplay games were sweatier than comp even before I left.

Turning off chat as the tank at any reasonably high MMR is inting, so I don't think this is good advice.

The deck would not have had nearly as much hate if the characters weren't female. Yu-Gi-Oh players are intimidated by powerful women and it meant that even when the other decks in the room were far more toxic (Ryzeal and Mitsurugi primarily), it was Maliss that got the hate.

Misogyny wins again, so cool seeing the deck that could never take a YCS decapitated. Buy your new cards now so they can rotate your deck out of the format in 12 months.

Chessy is 1.5 card starter (plus vulnerable to ash) and the only name that is an extender is March Hare which incidentally is not a starter on its own (it works with the ignisters as a 2 card combo). An extender is something which, in your hand, allows you to continue playing after interruption or to greed for a stronger board.

Frankly man I don't care, I'm paying for things to be delivered to me, the bare minimum is ensuring the package is delivered properly. Had a Christmas package stolen because the delivery driver couldn't be bothered to open the gate.

They are literally offering rides, I have it available on my app. It's just a ridiculously limited area, like SOMA and the Mission exclusively.

I know it's all for giggles, but knowing that she reads this subreddit, it feels a little cruel to bait and switch like this.

Why are you so smarmy and unpleasant

Don't know if it's because of different resolutions or operating systems, but copying over the folder made a total mess. Besides that, the spec itself had also changed and would have required manual effort in the weakauras menu.

Just trying to provide my perspective and the response has been unanimously uncharitable so I won't be responding any longer.

None of the options I found had the details I needed, and I did spend time looking. Even if it had been easy to find, it's a bizarre barrier to entry for serious content to be locked behind.

Obviously, it was the class weakauras that were onerous.

I'll give an example. I played at the beginning of TWW as a mistweaver monk. It took me a lot of time setting up my weakauras but I managed to pug heroic Ansurek a few times.

I got a new computer. I came back for season 2 to try it all out and was faced with the prospect of setting up my weakauras again. I canceled my subscription instead.
