Tl;dr: Elo hell doesn't exist. @Skyrossm and I based on our outspoken results are the community's example of this. However, a more extensive test has been conducted below. An important discovery has been made by the proactive Overwatch scientist, Season 1 Top 100, Current Grand master, Future Team America Player, and relatable streamer boy Ster. The notion that ELO hell exists has been proven false by Ster as he has jumped from 1053 to 3076 putting his current standing at Diamond. It has unfortunately proven that the system is skill based and the system isn't rigged to keep you within the range of 2000 to 3000. He purposely placed himself on his season 1 smurf account to be in Bronze by losing 9 of his 10 placement matches. Some of these accounts are seen early within his document. He has won 18 games straight without a loss, including the one win from placement matches. Out of 19 official games he played outside of placements, two of them were draws. He implores players who believe ELO hell exists to friend players who you played with that you noticed played well and group up with them. Many people have commented on his research saying "If you're a grandmaster, clearly ELO hell won't happen for you. You're cheating the system so this experiment is invalid! This is true even more so since you're getting 150 points per win since you're on a winning streak! You're not actually experiencing ELO hell." Ster rebutted that ELO hell is alleged to keep players within the range of 2000 to 3000 regardless of your skill so if ELO hell exists, an active Grandmaster such as I, should be held back within the rank range like everyone else. He also believes that many people who claim to be great at the game, they get gold damage or elims every game, and that they should be placed much higher than 2000, are most likely overreacting and not realizing just what they're doing the moment they mention ELO hell. He states you must realize your limitations, and while you play at your current level you should critique your gameplay as much as possible in order to improve. He emphatically states that people who are one trick ponies will never rise, so you must play WELL at more than 1 character. Lastly, he states that players who are of a higher rank happen to help a friend out who are in the alleged ELO hell, witness that they cannot win any games they play on their friends account, points to the fact that it's again a skill based system and if you lack the amount of skill to even just carry the team (as he had to for the first 10 games he played) then of course you may believe that ELO hell exists. That concludes the start of this ground breaking discovery. If you wish to learn more about this research that's still on-going you can receive updates at his social media site: https://www.twitch.tv/ster/ as he attempts to go for Master sometime within the next few days. Side note: This experiment has also proven that maximum points (150) can be received if you happen to draw, but don't lose your winning streak (a streak where you do not lose).
The way they just stand there and take your beam to the face makes me laugh also apparently now I'm in the Top 3% of Overwatch players, top 500 here I come

At first I didn't like this game but recently I tried it again on my boyfriends computer and I really want to get it now
Reading into it a bit. Some people on the subreddit have some good points on this actually being legit. But we'll have to wait and see. The next gametype is rumred to be a horde survival type thing with omnics(or Zomnics as the translation on the page says).
It's like, here's the thing. We had the olympics event. If Sobmra comes w/ Halloween, it makes the Halloween event very anticlimactic. Why? You don't just, throw Sombra into the game. Ana was in PTR for 1.5 weeks. Nextly, Halloween content in PTR will ruin the experience of surprise, when we had the olympic update just put into the real game instantly. So if the halloween update comes around with Sombra, it's like, going to be in PTR, and everything is just ruining what they've already set expectations at.
