Bad Matchmaking Thread

What got changed in the last 3 days.

Before that, propper match ups with ~phantom, afterwards archon/oracle with people not knowing objectives and nearly afk farming and feeding the whole games. Unplayable again.

Allegedly smurfing haze who is obviously at minimum ascendant in a low oracle match dropping nearly 100k damage, utter dogshit matchmaking error whatever way you look at it.

For this match the "Extra competitive" button was checked.

The Warden and the McGuinis were extremely bad. Both fed their lane very easily by just running at the enemy with 20% health. You'd think Pocket's shotgun did no damage based on the way both of them played in lane. At 11 minutes Warden was 1/7/0 and McGuinis was 1/3/0. Their lane opponents weren't super amazing (they were good though), Warden and McGuinis were just that bad.

While the Grey Talon may seem like an outlier, looking at the gameplay, his lane fed him, he played very well, and used his ult to help his other lanes (and he used it more than 4 times in the match).

After the lane phase the Warden would just run at the enemy, press all of his buttons with his ult up, and hope he got a kill; with or without team mates. The Warden has almost 500 hours in deadlock, but plays like someone who barely understand what levels are and that more souls means more powerful. Running at someone twice your soul level isn't a great idea, but Warden doesn't understand. If you look up his game history he's consistently this bad.

McGuinis would just try to rush towers down and not contribute to the game. She would regularly wall off objectives when she was near her team. The worst non-contribution from McGuinis would be the fact she used her ult only 4 times in a 35 minute match... McGuinis would also regularly face check enemies that were above her soul level (9k McGuinis against a 14k Pocket). How a player that plays this poorly and doesn't use one of their most powerful skills was queued with me is a mystery.

If a player is consistently getting death counts like this, they should be queued with other players who score similarly. A score in the double digits shows poor decision making that item build or skill usage could never express.

For this match the "Extra Competitive" button was checked.

The Lash and the Seven were particularly awful. Seven and Lash did not understand that they could not kill their lane opponents, but both were comically aggressive. This lead to their rapid deaths and very fed opponents. Their lane very quickly spiraled out of control. Our Haze, who was very good, could not keep up with the feeding these two did.

At 12 Minutes the Seven was 0/5/0 and the lash was 0/7/0. And the feeding did not stop. No one else on our team had died at that point.

After the lane phase, the Lash continued to be extremely awful. Constantly going off by himself, not listing to pings or team mates asking him to stop running after an enemy, and was constantly under fed. Lash used his ultimate a total of 3 times in the match... It's as if he forgot about his ultimate ability. I think his total player damage speaks for itself.

At the end of the match the Lash had a score of 0/20/5

A score like 0/20/5 should be considered trolling at my level of play. There is literally nothing an entire team can do if one player feeds our advantage back to the enemy team. This is what makes this game very frustrating to play. If players this bad cannot be sorted with other players in similar skill, they should be banned.

Not to talk badly about our opponents, but it's hard to tell if they were really as good as their score suggests, which is not something you want in a competitive game.

Match ID 31369638. I am in high Archon playing with my high Emissary friend. Somehow match up against a team in Phantom on average?? Only reason we came close is because they started trolling.Screenshot 2025-01-04 222609.png


Another similar case, match ID 31425497. Didn't get to do anything in this game at all really.
