    Occasionally. It's called having awareness of your surroundings and helping a teammate in need.

    Purify was used but im the only one actually trying to fight therefore i get imped.

    Team-mates running around with head cut off.

    and the way the enemy was fighting implied either voice chat or they just had some really nice callouts with the quickchat (god speed to anybody who actually can use that effectively)

    You cannot carry dead weight no matter how good you are in CC so you are better off just leaving and playing something else.

Personally I have always preferred to queue solo in all forms of pvp because I don't really hang with people who also like pvp in MMOs. Maybe if they trial group queues it would discourage a decent amount of this behavior. At least until everyone figures out, they aren't as good as they thought they were. xD
    Theres also the fact that people who cant/wont que in ranked are now pug stomping in CC to get their rocks off (which honestly is no different then smerfing)

    imagine if they still had the CC immunity like that did back then, you would not be able to constantly bind,stun or silence like you can now.

    Sounds like you were running in by yourself (regardless of what your team was or was not doing) and they used all their CC on you because they could. Try to stick with your team.

    Its called markers and quick chat... I mark players with a macro that also pings the "targeting" quick chat. Its not hard to get randos to coordinate in CC if they are half competent. Groups that are lucky enough to get players with brain cells that pay attention does not mean they were all in voice chat lmao.

    That's exactly what it sounds like to me lol. I've lost count of how many times I've seen players think they can be the hero and dive into a 1v4.

    And there's the issue. A vast majority of folks in CC are grossly incompetent. I also use the "Mark target while also pinging quick chat" thing and rarely, extremely rarely, does anyone pay attention and actually coordinate on the target. I communicate as much info as I can through quick chat and most of it just gets ignored. And when ya have this over and over and over and over and OVER...ya get mad and frustrated. Which is likely what sounds like Towa is going through. Like...christ, god forbid someone just gets frustrated once and a while...

    I get frustrated sometimes, but there's always going to be that one match that is just a wash, so just let it go and move on. You have to work with the chaos and get a feel for what your team is doing. Realistically you just need 1 person to pay attention and you can usually reliably kill anyone you mark. Whenever I play BRD I mark whoever I'm about to silence and throw my burst at and I'd say about 80% of the time they get nuked if its someone that is above 50% HP. If I'm getting teammates that don't help focus I just look for those who are low and I silence/burst and can usually kill them myself.

    Otherwise you could just play jobs that have significantly higher impact on solo play like DRG or MCH who have extremely reliable killing power. MCH has very good killing power in both regular skill combos and combos with their LB. DRG is a great hit and run with a fantastic LB that can control the flow of what's going on with the point. Just simple examples for that kind of play.
