Same here, i quit from this game after they removed ranked. Cause removing this game mode made casual matches literaly unplayable. Im returned now after 2 weeks of chill, and want to try to get a skins. But after 24 games in 2 days only thing that I can say: "Game is in a full shit state, but we have Xmas skins"
The match-up it literally worse then it was before, all meta heroes in enemy team while my team have the rest of hero pool. Looks like players filled by a random system not even looking on their hours in game , K\D or even on their "rank".
There is no competitive matches at all. For 24 games only 2 games where i feel some balance between players and this game was like around 40-50 min both. But rest of games is typical: "5-10 min in Q -> loosing all lanes/fights till 10 min -> GG on 20 min." There is no fun to play this matches, especially when you feel that game put really bad players versus you and let you easy win to recover your previous loses. Like what the point of this?
I went from Asc1 to Oracle6 for all this 24 games. And the most fun that Im playing every single game with exact same players and no matter If I enable extra competitve mode, I enable solo only - this didn't affect on matchmaking at all. I have the all same players vs me or with me in team.
There is no fun to play it, or any reason for now. Quaity of matches is garbage, Idk what happens on lower rank but on Phantoms its a dissaster. Its always one side stomp without any chances. I don't even feel this wins cause its literally a deathloop system of W\L now.
Game died even before out in release.
