How many posts does it take for the developers to realize that their current system isn't working? At this point, they either need to try something different or, ideally—as we expect from a company like Valve—innovate with a solution that finally brings a sense of fairness to matches. Not the same old experience of stomping or being stomped.
It's incredibly frustrating to see that this is the longest thread in the forum and yet the issue remains unaddressed. It’s starting to feel like a petition more than feedback. Maybe Valve thinks we're just complaining because we lose some matches, and that would be a huge mistake—ignoring a widespread concern is simply disrespectful to the community, especially when the fault clearly lies in how matchmaking is currently designed.
