Competitive on pub was very imbalanced for the placement matches. I didn't have time to do more than the 10 matches last night, so I'm not sure if it will improve now that I've got my rank. I'm hoping that once you're all similarly ranked, the games will be more even than their magic match making. I only experienced a leaver once, but the game was dropped automatically after a 30 sec timer.
In all the games, our levels were completely all over the board from 25+ to 180+. And out of all 10 matches, only 2 or so were 'balanced', the rest were complete destruction of either team. There was one Anubis attack that we didn't even have time to run to B point when it was already capped by our tracer flank.
The biggest thing I noticed is that Mercy and Lucio are picked first and fastest and then followed by tanks. In quick play, everyone rushes to take a character they feel like learning/playing and leaves the last 2 slowest to pick support and tank. Or in a lot of cases, they just pick whatever as well and you end up with an imbalanced team until someone flinches.
If you're going to pub, I highly recommend that you get practice in every type of class so that you're able to adapt better in a competitive game. I usually main Lucio/Mercy on quick play pubs, but now that there's a rush to pick them, I played them maybe 3-4 out of 10 matches. I've been consciously trying to play other classes in the last couple weeks, so I wasn't completely useless playing other chars as needed.
