Bad Matchmaking Thread

These two games were incredibly unbalanced and extremely un-fun. We never had a chance whatsoever because the skill difference between the teams was massive. I'd much rather not find a game than play a game with this much imbalance.

team averages were way off, i'd rather sit in queue for longer than play a match that's that unbalanced

2 players on the sapphire team were way better than anyone else in the lobby, they just dumpstered everyone

Just morons on my team. Straight up 2v6 every game. Russian majority lobbies are cancer and you need to ban VPNs. I am sick of dealing with people who go 0-6 in lane and just turbo feed an extremely easy midgame to some snowballing hero on repeat. Match quality is fucking dog shit since you merged ranked.

I'm emisarry 2 and there were multiple ascendants in the lobby and one player openly smurfing.
 
There are serious problems with match-making in Ritualist. Seems it is dropping totally new players to the matches and breaking the balance.
Usually there are limited voice calls in this elo but the following 2 matches were confirmed to have first-time players:
MATCH 29317227: Bebop, admits in chat to be playing 1st game (result 0-18-6)
MATCH 29596047: Bebop and Lash claiming on voice chat it is their first game (although on Lash replay you can see him knowing at least the principles)

Possibly new players are tossed too early to low-mid ranks

Viscous was Phantom 1 in a average Ritualist 6 lobby
and 2 on their team ritualist 1???

Games like this are just not fun. 2 Players on one team extremely clearly ahead skill wise of EVERYBODY else in the game and the rest of the team is just trash to "balance" it.
 
Matchmaking is so bad, I have less and less incentive to play. Its not that the enemy is super strong or unbeatable, but the matchmaking shoves me players in my team that dont belong there. And it is always in my team, never the other way round where we have a fairly easy match. NEVER. Why is it still so bad after weeks and weeks.

I literally made an account because i've never played such a poor quality match. Very frustrating. Wraith clearly was leagues beyond anyone on our team.

Teammates in Oracle/Archon vs Ascendant enemy while I'm in Phantom. Basically been having games like this consistently since the last patch. Only having terrible quality matches since then. I am constantly being put in matches with people far from my actual rank with almost none of my games being balanced.

Entirely one sided with yamato/haze feeding green lane like thanksgiving. I definitely believe that the McGinnis was new and was hard shut down by the Abrams which lead into him being fed by a whopping 10 to 20k ahead of his team.
 
Match 29685475 Had two Brazilians connected automatically to NA East servers. They proceeded to go 2-12 and 5-13 with one of the duo having zero objective damage over 38 minutes. You are effectively killing your game. 1733194081135.png

Right side of the map got completely destroyed in lane phase and it was virtually impossible to make a comeback due to how bad they were playing from the start. Felt like it wasn't even a remotely even skill matchup.
