A Day in the life of a Solo Queuing Imp

SO. I've been predominantly solo queuing upon my return to this game after a months Hiatus. Well i am keeping a log of games and although I admit this is just a small case study at the moment, I will edit this thread to update it over the next few days. These games are purely solo queues. I am a fully geared optimised to the teeth WH Operative healer for these games. I aim to get a case study comprising of 50-100 samples with information related to team makeup in relation to premades/severity of losses and gear. When this methodology is finished I will take these results and perform some analysis in another thread. Here are the results with some added info for each game:

It's dangerous to go alone! Take this.

oh wow a link with a picture in an attempt at cynical comedy. never seen that before!

troll away...

I completely agree with you on the state of Imp Side Solo queue. Being someone who has had to solo queue for quite a while due to the GW2 Exodus I know how hard its been. Hell, my worst day was 15 consecutive losses, only two of which were actually close games (P.S. they weren't Huttballs). However, I feel that you queuing as Op heals might skew the results slightly since for my experience (especially in Recruit pugs) it isn't worth keeping that Mara with 14k HP and 1400 Str who has no buffs or stim and has zero idea how to play his spec. Rather I find that speccing dps and abusing the Pubs lesser players has sometimes either won us the game or at least made a 0 - 100 Novare into a 0 - 78. This wouldnt apply to Huttball for obvious reasons, but regardless I look foward to this sample set of matches despite which spec you chose to run with. If I have time this week I might try and document my solo queues to see if we can find any correlations between our sample sets. Im sure 0 - 6 Huttballs, full Recruit gear and subpar DPS will be at the top of the list

Not really a troll, I just don't get what you're trying to accomplish. Providing statistical analysis that Imperials lose more than Republics doesn't do anything, we already know this. The other day I queued for about 6 hours, did 30+ matches and didn't lose one. I didn't come on here and provide everyone with a detailed breakdown of composition of the other team.

that's cause your the one constantly on the winning side.

doesn't take a genius.

derp much?

Im trying to prove that solo queuing on this server is completely broken on Imp side.

Players should be able to have the option to queue solo against other players who are queued solo. NOT this nonsense

Especially with the massive faction imbalance.

These stats will show a small sample of it. If you have a problem with it, dont read it.

Maybe you should log your old op and solo queue if you think you can handle not rolling every game in 4 mans.

Alright, was trying to be amicable, so let me put it another way. Nobody cares that you're losing that much, and nobody is going to change what they're doing to help you out.

don't listen to Cates, Jenna'syyde cares aboot how much you are losing. I mean losing sucks. You talk aboot loading into warzones with 3 or more recruits, pro tip you solo queued so quit warzone before it starts. You'd be surprised at how helpful this is. You can't care aboot the poor schmuck who takes your place just be glad it isn't you.

Jenna'syyde

yes. he is the one on the winning side. because he rolls with 3 other top tier players. cates, how many times did you roll my sent that day? at least three times.

op: good players win more. good premades win a lot more.

I just got rolled in an NC with 4 try-hards and 4 US (guessing it wasn't a superQ but best I don't know if it was). it happens. solo queue is a complete roll of the dice for ANYBODY. I've gone 1-8 on the rep side. it was a few weeks ago when I kept at it cuz I was desperate to get this toon's valor to bm so I could put on some nice duds...and I was learning the spec. but there are times on both sides where you just gotta take a break or group up with some solid players.

that doesn't even the winning percentages. imps are gonna lose more. but your terrible population actually works to your benefit late nights. you have 15 imps queueing and 12 of them are try hards, stampedes and uncensords. now, all of a sudden, every pop is a major disappointment if you don't win, and I have to pray to the gods above that I draw one of cates' grps or blunty. your window for this is smaller than for the reps and/or at an inopportune time. I get it. what's the point though? is this some excuse to manipulate the Q on your own?
