Every single ranked game I join there are flamers/leavers and I would have to say that this game has one of the, if not the most, toxic community I have EVER seen in a game. Does anybody agree with me?

Funnily enough, the more toxic players typically only sit at the bottom of the ranks, I'm 60 in competitive and it's pretty rare to see players speaking in a toxic manner, yet I hear that players at 45 are usually terrible.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

I've not experienced that yet. My problem is the ranking system. I had a video card fail on me recently and when the drivers crashed the first time it booted me from the game and cost me 2 ranks for it. Now I'm 4 ranks under my battle buddy. It puts us in "lvl 52 games" where the other team is all rank 52 and avg 52, but out team is ranging from rank 56 to 46 (give or take) but we avg 52. Somehow we are favored to win so If we win I get .25-.5 or a rank, but if I lose I lose 1 rank OR MORE!

lol my problems with overwatch in general is that it overheats my gpu for some reason. I made a thread about my gpu going up to 94c thinking it was a fan problem in my case but it's only overwatch that does this. I have to play at 1080p rip

I was rank 59 and now Im 56 because every single game there is a flamer/troller/idiot.

Are you capping your framerate in some way? Overwatch isn't very demanding, so maybe your video card is getting hot by rendering it at 300 FPS or so. Cap it off at 60 FPS or whatever you want and it shouldn't be running at 94°C.

I've played tons of matches rank 45-50 and haven't had a problem except for a few outlier cases.

It is capped at 60.  Issue remains.
