CC Queue Syncers, you are the worst.

[Rainbows]

I just wanted to leave this here to get it off my chest.

Those of you out there that queue sync for crystalline conflict, and do it in voice calls vs people who honour the rules and solo queue. Your victories are hollow, because you enjoy an unfair advantage. I have always tried to do that game mode honestly, but it is getting harder and harder for me to justify spending any time on the game mode if people are going to cheat.

You may now bombard this thread with xyz deal with it posts, derogatory comments about me or myriad other mundane angles I have heard before that have long since made me world weary.


I don't care what you post, I just wanted to be heard. Goodbye.

If people queue sync for ranked, there's no guarantee they'll be on the same team, correct? As long as they try to win regardless of which team they're on what specifically is the issue with this? I've queue synced with friends for ranked before and it never once occurred to me that this was cheating, if I ended up fighting against them I still played just as hard because I wanted to win.

[Elephantality]

You say honor the rules, is there a rule to no CC queue syncing? That seems odd. Also keep this in mind, one time I queued up for CC, and my friend was in my team, although I did not even notice them the whole game and they told me after. How are you so sure any of what you have seen is intentional?

If team play were intended solo que would not be forced. End of discussion.

I know allot of players who do it. They que sync and if they end up on the same team they hop in voice chat and just run around together bursting people down. It is quite annoying and frustrating to deal with that but it is not against ToS I believe.

It's going to kill the game mode, just like what happened to feast.

This has already happened in Feast. It is annoying. Especially now that you can time limit breaks together to wipe a party. You can say networking is a part of this PvP lol.
Especially if nobody ever hears your side of the story in some discord channel, then those who read lies about you will start having a negative attitude towards you based on the experience of those "veterans". Which means you get quite a few games where some players are blaming you specifically, or worse, even stop attempting to play seriously or ragequit.
The problem is the small playerbase. It doesn't happen in other games that often. They would have to limit the time at which you can play ranked to counter it, so everyone is forced to play at a certain time window, which makes it more random.

I would love nothing more than for CC to be truly solo q and competitive, with no one using voice to circumvent the intended direction of gameplay SE put forward by imposing quick chat and solo q.

Anyone who q syncs and bursts people down, you need to understand you may as well be playing AI's if you are going to use voice chat against an honest solo q player.

You know what actually is against the ToS, using API. I play on console and I couldn't use it if I wanted to, and I wouldn't anyways. I started at the very bottom about a week and a half ago and went up through gold hell and made crystal playing against players who are using cheats I don't even have access to. So yeah, seeing you lot have a whinge about this makes me laugh. I didn't queue sync either if you think I'm defending using voice chat during ranked I'm not, I don't even use discord. The time I was talking about was in season 14 and I just wanted to play with a friend so we synced like 4 matches and maybe played together once lol Oooh such a big advantage. The point is though, presenting this as a breach of ToS when it isn't and many of you are using API thus actually cheating is disingenuous af.

.....

If they can't go against cheater who hide it well, they can't go against people on discord who queue sync to potentially either coordinate together or to throw matches in a way that benefits them most. The invisible win trading of seemingly good players, who play dumb for 30s. Chaos DC couldn't even tell that their top melee was speedhacking, people just don't notice it, even top players.

I wouldn't say it is against ToS, but it is not very sportsmanship like behavior. I wouldn't assume everyone uses tools in PvP in higher tiers. But even widescreen monitor and higher resolution help a lot. We wouldn't punish players who have a big screen or? Still, it is an advantage...

I think there doesn't need to be a split between unranked and ranked queue anymore. It would make some issues less relevant.
