Bad Matchmaking Thread

29981176 : my team had 3 kills to other team's 39. The duo on my team went 0-20 combined. 87k souls to 127k, Emissary 3. This was a completely 1 sided match. This was brutally unfair - the other team was not Emissary for sure.

29906171 : again, 16 to 45 kills and 164k to 207k souls Archon

29901962 : again, 17 to 49 kills and a whopping 184k to 242k souls. I went 0-9 myself in this match and only 1 of my teammates faired a 8 to 8 score. I was absolutely the odd one out of this match. Archon. I should not be in Archon.

29905401 : again but flipped, 44 kills to 5 kills and 115k to 69k souls. We won this and dominated but it did not feel good. It felt awful crushing this team of players who frankly felt like they were completely new players and kind of just figuring things out. It says Emissary 3. No way, absolutely not. We won in 18 minutes.

29905401: again

29515844: again - 44k to 92k souls jeez, their whole team was breaking 14+k and NONE of my team myself included broke 8.5k. Absolute waste of time

29429850 : this one was closer than maybe all the rest, but they had very high skill players and the yamato on our team carried us through. It was dumb luck we lasted as long as we did, I think the enemy team was meandering toward the end of the 40 minute match which dragged it out and gave us a chance to last longer. Felt oppressive.

34% winrate since the 11-21 matchmaking changes. I was an avg 50% before that change I believe at a glance.

Why does every patch seem to make the game worse... Just leave it alone please it was good for a while and now its like its been reset and back to horrible.
 
This match might be the tipping point for me, the patch is awful and so is the matchmaking too. 450 hours in and I'm losing all my will to play let alone enjoy this.1733563181787.png
 
29988682 - alchemist II, 155k vs 76k in 25:00, monumental mmr difference seemingly, and a haze clearing house from our team (19 kills vs avg 6 on the rest of us). felt bad for them...

So my matches are a new type of bad now. I've played like 6 games on the new patch. The first 2 were great. It felt like the games were close and could've gone either way. Won one and lost one, and didn't mind losing because it felt fair.

BUT NOW, 4 god damn games in a row, I've had at least 1 player, way far above everyone else's rank.

The game I'm posting, I asked everyone what rank they were. My team said around Emissary to Archon, and the enemy team said around PHANTOM. Now they could be lying, but they really were just way better than us. Like, to the point where it was not fun to play. I laned against the Vindicta and she seemed to be around my skill level, but everyone else was just destroying us. So, it says the average team rank was Archon, and I'm assuming that means it was like a Phantom stack and a couple of Emissary players, and my team seemed to have high emissary to low Archon.

I have all of the settings turned on. I have prefer solo queue on. I have extra competitive turned on (but most people still don't uses comms or do much coordinating). Tbf these really bad games were around 3-5 a.m. so maybe it's just a bad time to play.

But my god, if you can't find players around my skill level for me to play against, just leave me in queue, tell me to go to sleep. I'd much rather wait for a good game than this garbage. I've now deranked twice off of games against Phantom level and Oracle level players. Just don't match me against them. Especially if I have the extra competitive option on. That should tell you I care about my rank. And this shit, is not fair.

Also, the patch said it would try to give each team at least 2 frontliners. It's probably debatable if some characters are or not, but who tf is ours supposed to be. Like, maybe viscous, maybe if you build him that way. But they have Mo and Krill, and Lash and Bebop could def be frontliners if they're built that way. Can't complain about it too much, because we're just waiting on enough heroes for a draft system to fix that problem. But this is all to say, I think the matchmaker is way to eager to put me into whatever game is available. And they end up being trash.

My last week has been absolutely horrible in terms of matchmaking. I feel totally out of place, in that literally everyone in the opposing team is on a higher level than me. It has never been this bad before. Sure I've lost big before, but it's very consistent now and I'm still the same rank as before.
I feel completely powerless most games, and it seems to be the case for my teammates as well as we get crushed in every single lane. This has drastically decreased the amount of time I put into the game in the last week, its just not fun.

Screenshot 2024-12-07 215025.pngEvery game this happens. Every fucking game after merging the rating and regular games! How is it possible to create such a bad mm? I had 60% winrate in 100 rating games. Now i just can't win.
 
30024519 again, insane composition gap LMAOOO what the fuck man. my team also all had 3rd-5th pick heroes... what is the mm doing LMAO
 
Valve can ban me untill the matchmaking system works good. Because I will get ban because of swearing at bad people on my team. When I search a match and start it. My team being expect me bots. They don't know how to control map, how to help each other how to combo together bla bla. But the enemy team seems like they've been playing together for years.

Shit ranked system.
 
Match 29351276: I get put on an off hero, which is listed as below my average skill, in a match rated well above my skill.
Match 29353044: The very next match, on my best hero, get put against the same Ascendant Duo Queue, but the match is somehow rated Phantom.
Match 30025270: "Matchmaking will try and give both teams frontliners" But they got Abrams and MnK, and we got... Lash? Who is nowhere near the same thing.

You need to ban this Abrams. People like him are going to ruin this game. Set a precedent where this toxic nonsense isn't allowed.
