Lack of voice chat was pretty smart decision in my opinion. Game is really fast paced to make much of anything in casual mode. For some super high stakes billion dollar tournament ranked mode stuff they can probably afford to go for third party client and headsets.
Same in games like Hearthstone (has emotes) and Heroes of the Storm (text chat). I can't even imagine the amount of negativity and vulgarity people would face with voice chat. Sometimes people add each other after the match just to talk trash.
Just ask COD players the lovely words their opponents shower them with. It is good that you quit though as now you can focus on making threads on VGC.
