The new patch notes are out, every title and reward other than Gladiator can be earned.
Why is this? The game is already balanced around 3v3. It will by far be the hardest bracket to get Gladiator/Rank 1 in as you won’t be in voice and have to constantly make the best out of a bad situation, you won’t be able to just spam games with a cherry picked cheese comp. It's independent so you can't be carried.
It seems like allowing R1/Gladiator to be earned in Solo Shuffle would make the bracket more popular and competitive. What is Blizzard thinking? There should at minimum be a Solo Shuffle gladiator equivalent title and reward separate from normal glad.
