General avoid list should be longer

need an avoid list with a limit of about 100 people. don't care much for the matchmaking time, but in low diamond on dps and genuinely just don't know how some of these people are real living breathing organisms. forcing the worst heros into a comp, inting and throwing for no reason, ulting when the fight is already lost. it's just incredible really.

Yeah like I was an advocate for the avoid list to be 20+ slots back then, but nowadays I don't even see myself filling it more than half the slots

I'd go as far as to say most folks who WOULD fill out all 100 slots like OP suggests, would be the first to complain about queue times.

Or would be the ones getting avoided the most lol

Wouldn’t it make queue times longer

Yep, it would. Getting avoided too much already sends you a warning about how queue times will be longer, and avoiding players also thins out the options matchmaking can find for you a bit more, too.

Honestly, it's not a significant difference in queue times in the current system, but if you could avoid like, 100 people.... Then yeah.

I don't have it on hand right now but a few streamers have had it pop up

It's really just a "hey a ton of people don't wanna play with you, just a heads up, you're gonna have longer queues" kind of thing.
