Bad Matchmaking Thread

Just create a new steam account and invite yourself? Tbh tho you'll most likely end up at around same rank again anyway because for w/e reason Valve decided to not start people at 0 and you'll have same experience again as solo q in EU.
i know that i will start from the rank i have on my bound account. but as it works with dota, i could get into normal pool, with at least 50% win rate. And you cant create new free account and play deadlock, you have to invest 5$ there first. but its a shit to spend money just to avoid a hidden pool, i ve had enough of this in dota
 
30278626 Geist claims its their second ever match, I have 100+ matches. Average ranking is 3 ranks below mine.
30226987 Average rank on our team is alchemist 1 average rank on opponents team is alchemist 5, my rank was arcanist 2 at the time of the game.
30078507 Livingsecret and Eccentricjackal both claimed it was their 4th ever match while getting matched up with people with 100+ matches.

I get that the rank is a bit lower than the average playerbase low but this is extremely demoralizing to everyone involved.

I was 1v2 and 1v3ing in my solo lane as Vindicta while spamming for help and yet somehow all other lanes lost. Then I just got ganked by people with massive soul leads and just dove under towers, walkers, base guardians and eventually in the spawn.

It was a very fun match. I waited 30 mins in queue for a 21 min unwinnable stomp. I've uninstalled. Thanks Valve.
 
Three games in a row with smurfs and Eternus players on Oracle. Same people and some of them not but can be tracked easily who is smurfing through tracklock.gg at least

pls @Yoshi do something with mm asap. its impossible to play now. it always selects party of noobs, where 1-2 players are passive, play with 0-9-0 counts, always walkin solo on lines and feed, and leave before we even start to def. i cant win almos 25 times/30. i cant fuckin watch how i lose my rank after each game where i am mvp on my team. im already ritualist 6 and still cannot win )) )) ) whata fuck you did with your game, turn everything back omg. or just wipe my account. its all i ask for.

I was the Ivy. I'm not very experienced with her. I asked to swap to a duo lane but nobody wanted to, so I was stuck soloing against a haze, who was quite good.

Every lane was lost. The enemy team coordinated well and pushed their lead, doing objectives, mids, and urns. They established control of the entire map early on. Travelling as a group and rotating quickly, they dominated each and every teamfight.
 
I think this is because I'm playing on heroes that I don't have as many games on, but it really feels unfun to dominate lane and play well throughout the match only to be consistently teamed up with teammates that throw the game over and over. Even my wins feel extremely lopsided. I don't think it takes more than 5-10 games with a hero to be at least close to your main skill rating.

30244022 - 80k souls dif in 18 minutes (other team had almost 3x my team's souls)
30296780 - 60k souls dif in 23 minutes
30297955 - almost 60k soul dif in 40 minutes (looks like my team had 3 newbies)
30301637 - just stomped by the other team combining skills

In all matches the other team had much more coordination, i guess that most of them are on party with 5 or 6 people.
The game needs to reduce the maximum party size, in this game 5 or 6 people playing together on discord or something makes a huge difference, just lock the party size on 3 or 4 players, please
attaching screenshots of the two craziest matches

Want to tell the class why your dogshit matchmaking thinks stuff like this is balanced? It isn't fun. It's not fun when mt team is stomped. It's not fun when I stomp the enemy team.

It's like your matchmaking decides "OK you've had your stomp win quota, now it's time for you to be stomped for the next 10 matches." It's honestly taking all enjoyment out of the game.

That's without even mentioning the changed to slow down the game. Now the enemy team that is stomping can't just finish things, MM has clearly decided to fuck us and now with the "come back" mechanics in mind it just draws out what was always going to happen. It's utter dogshit.

Fix MM or at least speed up games so stomps can end quicker and so the game isn't just 3rd person dota.

in usual deadlock fashion, of course after continuous win, you give me someone who's so incompetent, they can't even get a kill lmao. why is it literally always like this. this is so fucking bad, literally fix this shit.

Why are players like this wraith in my game? It was a balanced game other than the smurf fucking things up. Jesus this MM is so shit and we still gotta put up with it until next patch.

Wow would you look at that. Yet ANOTHER person who should absolutely not be at my MMR shitting up my matches. Every other person, every other lane is evenly matched but we get shitters like this (conveniently always placed on the enemy team) who just steamroll and ruin an otherwise close match. I'm sick of this shit.
