Hey there guys, I’m a low Masters DPS player and I’ve been playing quite a bit of QP with my special lady who’s also Masters. The reason for this being that we enjoy playing the game whilst also talking about literally anything else and not really being that absorbed by everything that’s happening. Its at least a nice warmup!

Though, I’ve been wondering… Is quickplay supposed to be this sweaty? A lot of the time we manage to win, but sometimes we also get literally skill-diffed by the looks of things. I’m fully aware quickplay is casual in nature and so, PERHAPS certain teams have less experienced players on them, but this feels different. Everyone performs. It just feels really serious.

I feel that I personally flip a switch between QP and ranked where I completely change everything about my playstyle - meaning I play more casually and laid back in QP - and this was fun at first, but it seems that recently that’s just stupid to do because we’ll be the only people on either teams who’re “throwing”, “feeding”, “SWAP!!!”, etc, etc.

I find it a little silly to go super hard in QP because that’s what ranked is for, right? But visible competition (even in unranked) will urge me to compete. And even then, some of these fights are HARD.

I’m simply curious about high-rank players’ experiences when it comes to quickplay and how easy or hard it can be. Likewise for players who’re ranked a bit lower! Do any of you encounter sweaty GMs or is it even? Easy, mostly?

Sound off! Thanks in advance :)
