Bad Matchmaking Thread

73872694

Yes, this is exactly what I want from a video game. I want to be completely fucking rolled by an obviously smurfing Twitch streamer.

I definitely want to be A FUCKING SIDE CHARACTER ON SOMEBODY'S STREAM WHENEVER I PLAY THIS GAME. This is a good use of my time and I feel quite respected by Valve right now.

Getting crushed repeatedly is an enjoyable experience that will motivate me to play this game significantly more.

Had decent games yesterday but the first game today was horrible. Feeding Shiv, gun Gem that was basically a bot that soaked farm. Unplayable. Like stop putting me into these shit low lobbies.
 
The rank needs a lot more recency bias IMO. I am Seeker 2, which was okay, because I used to be that bad. However, I have improved a lot, but my ranking doesn't change, and now I often feel like I'm smurfing. With Mina I am almost always the top player on my team, although there are sometimes other similarly misplaced players.

Here is the latest one that I actually lost: 73885002

Your sense of humor is terrible if this MM is your idea of a joke. I really hope you're actually useful for the team in some other way, because this is a failure

I guess Snicklar and Graves are your primary testers then? Explains why the game is in this state. Great job!))

Forget it. Devs don't give a damn, they're just chilling on their payroll and vibing
Easy money for them)
 
73901474 Really just one sided, the problem with this game is you can with certainty point out the winner team in the first 8 minutes in the game.
73907721 Same here. Also please fix the input delay and the net jitter its getting kinda obvious that you people dont seem to care.
73916625 Same here. Also Mina was extremely toxic.

Fun fact this were all after another, really good progress on the Matchmaking team.

Got a game with cheaters (probably two). Vindicta was using cheat that was crushing the game for everyone in the lobby, but she was fine and her friend Haze (possibly using aimlock or smth). Also, Vindicta was promoting her Telegram channel in the chat (and in her nickname). Please, do something about it.

can u guys PLEASE remove me from archon? and put me back on emissary or ritualist? every match feels i´m either below the skill of elo or my team is useless. if MMR is real in this game then its not working.
 
Players dying more than 10 times against opponents with over 15 kills, combined with nonsensical team compositions, clearly reflects a deeper issue: the matchmaking system isn’t just poor—it also lacks any meaningful character selection logic that would allow for a balanced game, both in terms of player skill and hero synergy.

Enemy team seemed far more skilled than us, it literally didn't feel like we were in the same rank. Half our team had 0 kills and most were nearing double digit death counts while the enemy team had three players go entirely deathless.

Matchmaking makes no sense. There’s absolutely no fair pairing—I have significantly higher MMR than the average in this match, yet the game assigns me a completely off-meta character, even though I have more than 8 priority picks.


The system isn’t just creating unbalanced teams in terms of player skill; it’s also forcing imbalanced compositions through poor character distribution. Stop using character-based MMR for matchmaking and switch to account-based MMR. It makes no sense that every time I play certain characters, I end up in completely mismatched, low-quality games.
