Region Locks for Ranked

Will we ever get region locks for ranked match making? I’m tired of getting paired up with teammates only typing in mandarin and me being left in the dark. Nevermind the bizarre behavior I have seen from these same Chinese players who either DC nearly immediately or for unknown reasons or forefeit at the earliest mild inconvenience.

My latest ranked 4v4 placement match was almost half mandarin speakers and it’s just baffling to me. A preffered language setting or something is needed. Pings don’t cut it and the connection issues or cultural differences in their approach to ranked play is really frustrating. I’d play non ranked if the wait times and wildly unpredictable behavior there wasn’t worse than what I’ve seen in ranked.

Things are gonna happen outside of my control and I get that but man when I see half the lobby has names in another language it sketches me out and it’s probably in my best interest to just bail moving forward. For what it’s worth I play on East Coast U.S. servers. Thats my rant/ted talk. Thanks.

Well, I guess we may need translate button rather than separating players already so few.

There aren’t many skilled western players, conq1 and above would suffer greatly. It isn’t reasonable to seperate the population by region.

There is too much racism in this community over Chinese players. You guys need help.

And no, I’m not being too harsh. First they pretend it’s a “language barrier” then point out “bizarre behavior” and “cultural differences”.

I agree with adding a translating feature. But, I can guarantee you these people wouldn’t be satisfied with that. They would keep blaming Chinese players even if they could translate. It is straight up, open racism.

This forum’s moderators are not harsh enough on these clearly inappropriate posts.

At least we can publish the translate button first, so that some persons will lose a conventional reason lol.

Just spam the alert thing. Thats what I do and everything comes around.
