Incidentally, this is how I play Overwatch. There's something so satisfying about explicitly not being able to directly communicate and having to use the built in chat and ping system.

Plus, abusive assholes can't spew toxicity at you when you're losing.

On a tangent, how do so many people not understand that if you're playing in a lobby that's appropriate to your skill you're going to lose half of your games? There's always that one asshole who can't ever lose or he word vomits all over his team.
