    Since when is picking an ultimate reportable

    First of all , I'm playing Lucio in QM because he is a fun hero to play (At least for me) and I usually pick Reverse Amp :
    People who say Reverse Amp is bad and Sound Barrier is good are the ones who think Malf's tranquility is good and Nightmare is bad ...
    Without Reverse Amp I can totally notice the 3 sec E , And that's really bad (E will be 4 sec when you pick Reverse Amp , That means extra healing , Also if you pick E talent at 20 It will be 7.5 instead of 5.5 , That means around 30% more healing)
    My point is why do people report others for picking an Ult that is not that bad and most importantly , IN FREAKING QM ? Isn't QM meant for fun ? Isn't QM supposed to be non-serious ? Also another one , The same people who report Think that Lucio is a guy who can save them from 1v5 (Funny right) And that "sound barrier could have saved us the game"

    This. People are dumb and get mad when they're bad, so look to blame everyone else. Healer picked a non-healing ult? That'll do. Blame them.

    also tranquility is bad? Since when? Also the level 20 talent gives everyone mana and more healing, so... since when was tranquility bad?

    Well said my friend , but Reverse Amp increases massive healing of E by an additional 1 sec so it is not completely a non-healing ult , Not completely a healing ult either

    The same "Idiots" will have you get silenced (It's the sad part , I've already got silenced once due to unknown reasons after 2 years and if this stacks up on it then I have no other choice but to leave this game)

    People have different minds , Since every malf picks nightmare , surely it will make people think that way
    Same goes to Lucio picking sound barrier always

    If you get silenced for trivial reason like being reported for picking talents or heroes other party members dont like, you can just contact support and appeal silence and it will be removed within few hours.

    Happened to me twice (I play Gazlowe in HL and baddies like to put the blame on "troll" hero) and silence was removed. Just dont take the bait when someone starts to vent on you, because then GM will just quote whatever nasty thing you said and uphold the silence (that happened to me as well).

    Best advice would be to just instantly mute/report whoever starts the blame game, as its pointless to try reasoning with them, and you might end up getting yourself silenced.

    Oh, sure, but community perception is that healers have a "healing ult" and a "damage ult". You picked the damage one, so you're the one who's bad, obviously [/s].

    Tranquility doesn't save from any half assed focus, doesn't seem that impactful to me. Plus TD is just too strong to pass - it can win entire tf just by pressing an R button. Also consider cooldowns - it has a stupid 100s cd, while his much more impactful alternative has 90s cd and Li Li's considerably better version of it has 70s cd. So if someone picks Tranq, I do become disappointed. But of course only idiots report over a talent/ult pick.

    It's not bad it's just twilight dream being extremely good in comparison

    You have no idea how many people used to bitch about me picking Water Dragon, it seems to have calmed a bit down though.

    While I mostly share the assessment of TD vs Tranquility, this is off. 1000 jugs is channeled, so can be interrupted and prevents Li Li from doing other stuff; Tranquility is an aura, so Malf can cast other spells while it remains active - including Ice Block. Tranquility is clearly superior.

    I can have fun and still play well and win. So stop saying "just for fun" as if it means you shouldn't play properly.
    Anyway, they probably said they reported you but didn't. Don't worry about it.

    If it was ranked , Sure I could buy that sentence but since it was QM and QM is meant for fun/trying/being non-serious ... Nope , having fun means basically winning the game , rekting some noobs etc And being on the losing side means torture , Specially when you can't do anything to save your team8s
    Diamond+ do have mental issues , This is a fact (I've experienced it almost every game , Keep bitching about other's plays at the end of game , Check their profile BOOM DIAMOND)
    This aside how do you know they don't report ?

    If everything was reportable , we all would be silenced in about 1 month of trying the game for the first time

    Everything is reportable; only certain things are against the rules. So let them report. As long as you've not done anything against the rules, hostile chatting included, nothing will stick.

    If these reports end up leading to any consequences at all is a completely different thing.

    I am free to report you for playing with a specific champion or picking talents that I dislike, will you be punished for such reports? Of course not, none of that crap is against the rules, in fact, filling such reports may be considered as abusing the system, resulting in some sort of punishment for those filling them up.
    How does the report system work anyways ? Like if you have feed , and you got reported for feeding , The GM checks your replay log to see if you have fed or not ?
    OR
    If you have trash talked , and you get reported for trash talking , The GM checks your chat log ? I always though it works this way . Correct me if I'm wrong

    There is no chance in hell it works that way; the manpower and cost required would be absurd. Chat complaints are fully automated I guess and get only doublechecked if the silenced player appeals.

    Feeding, afk-ing reports will most of the time be ignored completely, only if a player gets an extremely amount of those his average contributions (siege/hero xp) and activity (apm/interactions with an objective) get compared with a minimum threshold and - if he's below - get him a temporary ban.

    As a reality check: Blizzard has ~4700 employees, divided into US, Europe, divided into support/others, divided over 6+ games with WoW as the subscription game getting the majority of support manpower. How many GMs will work on HotS full time? Not many is the only realistic answer.

    How do the players contact the GMs to have them un-silenced by them ? and don't they check your entire chat/replay log just to make sure you haven't done anything wrong ?

    You contact a support rep via Blizzard App -> HotS -> Options -> Get Help/Support.

    And yes, they can and most likely will check your full chat log.

    And why do you lose? Why is it torture?
    Because people don't try, because people aren't being serious, because people use the excuse "just for fun" to justify how garbage they are at the game. How is winning not fun? Why even bother playing at all if you don't want to win? It's the meaning of a game, to win it.

    Go figure what you should be doing yourself then you can demand it of others. I don't expect them to report you because they were just trying to get under your skin with insults. It's not a reportable offense, so why do you worry?

    It's mostly automated. Enough repeated reports equals punishment.
    I've talked so much shit in HotS and I've only ever been punished once for it. If you do get punished, especially if you're punished severely, you've REALLY worked on it.

    I think you got it wrong ... Sure I play for fun , But that doesn't mean I wasn't even trying , Hitting buttons like fucking hard just to save your teammates is not "non-serious"
    And yeah I've had the same punishment as you , Talk shit and get silenced ... Once , Ofc this happened after 2 years
