Yeah, but I don't think a lot of people are on right now. I'd join you but I'm at work.

What do they use to group up? Is there a discord or something?

Discord. It's in the OP.

I swear I just looked through it and didn't see anything.

Well, I went through the first page again, no discord mentioned or linked as far as I can see.

snipers being dead weight below a certain skill level is a pretty classic problem in team shooters, not even the great Nintendo can solve it

Remove snipers. :colbert:

There's always a problem balancing weapons that can instant kill at uncounterable distances and up close.

I think Blizzard got it right with Hanzo, he's a sniper with a relatively low skill level so the snipebros can play a sniper but actually contribute to the team at the same time.

The real solution would be to not make any chargers available until, say, level 15, but it's too late for that now.

Well, Snipers have been an issue in drat near every game I've played, because they're extremely high burst damage at all distances ranging from close up to their max distance. One of the more successful attempts at balancing them I've seen is reducing their burst and increasing their ability to deal damage in a more continuous way, usually with higher rates of fire and lower damage per shot. But fundamentally, Snipers as a concept are problematic for most games, especially those with low team sizes and small maps.

Once I hit B- and clear the challenge I'm going to abandon my smurf account and not make another one. I think the game figured out that I've played before pretty quickly because I'm getting matched up against people in the mid 20s and 30s mostly. They might still be kids but I'm not beating up on people who have literally never played before.

As a new player at level 5-9 today, I assure you, seeing mostly 20-40 is normal
