The first and only ranked match I've played had transgenders being horny in teamchat and facetanking as Silver only to run back in and die after being tardwrangled.

I think I'm going to hold off a week or two until the pool expands.
 
Why are trannies so obsessed with celeste and silver? Every tranny plays either one of these two.
They both have tropes that appeal to troons.

Celeste is all about found family and misfits sticking together, which is a very common trope in trans media since the tramerican dream is to leave your actual family behind and join a polycule of fellow troons.

Silver is the girlfailure trope, which comes from anime. Trannies often identify with said trope since they lead a similar lifestyle. Bonus points is that she's played by the same VA that played Luna in Helluvaboss.
 
Check out the official discord and you'll discover that roleplaying troons are a sizeable portion of the playbase
I think I'm going to pass on that.

Suddenly, Deadlock's character designs make a lot of sense.
 
Hoping that the rank changes get looked at in light of me only really having the time for one to three matches on weeknights. I have it on Mo and I’m close-ish to the win requirements on Abrams, Victor, and Billy. I know, I’m ass.


If you’re trying to bring fresh characters into ranked, assuming a 50% winrate with an average match time of 30 minutes, you’re looking at 90 games with a playtime of 45 hours minimum.

Don't forget Mina, who will inevitably be doing a falsetto so bad that it causes aoe spirit damage. Really though the worst part about them is that they won't shut up in chat and more often than not it's text chat and at a time when they're not dead or ziplining and could actually be doing things.

One of the rules with them is that every horrible male stereotype (being drunk/abusive/not in control/a complete failure) suddenly becomes extremely hot if it's being done by a lesbian. There's probably some read there about that coming from them having the traits and transitioning that would also explain why they headcanon the characters as trans. There's also her whole deal with being a werewolf pulling all of the weird furry/otherkin types in, because you gotta check all the boxes on the mental illness bingo card.

It kind of makes me wonder why they don’t seem to go for Vyper as much. She’s kind of in the same niche. I’d assume it’s something about the snake woman being played for laughs while Silver being a mundane trainwreck appeals to their fake pathos.

Edit: Does matchmaking classify Victor as a carry or as a frontliner for comp purposes?

I think it's a good thing, competitive should be a privilege not a right, especially in a game where if you don't know how to play a hero you are worse than useless.

A very hot lesbian, pretty privilege really. Women like that do exist but they are all landwhales just like their male counterparts.

I think it's because Vyper is the highest effort shitpost in gaming history while silver is played completely straight.

I get why they’re doing it. It’s just annoying when your already poor match quality is even worse and probably will be for weeks. Doubly so when I’ve been thinking about going carry again on and off for a bit. Haven’t really played many of them since dicking around for a bit at the start aside from Victor and Warden.

They had an amicable conversation once, this makes them a trans lesbian couple in the minds of the mentally ill.

Keep in mind that they project their ideology on every fictional character they like regardless of what the character or the author thinks.
 
Standard matchmaking in this game is such a monkeys paw, "oh you don't want to play ranked? we'll give you 5 people who don't want to play the game at all". I do appreciate that they FINALLY added it back but the 6 games I played yesterday 3 of them took 50+ minutes. I remember playing DOTA2 and pub matches were similar length sometimes but at-least my tranny 0-11 invoker didnt larp as the character while others talked about girl cock or whatever
