Bad Matchmaking Thread

Matchmaking became very boring. Literally almost every single game is predictable lose. Got 4 deranks from Phantom 6 to Phantom 2. Playing Oracle lobbies with visible newbies in team every single match (million deaths, low damage, low heal, zero kills, very little amount of assists etc.). Funniest thing from all this circus show is no matter what you do or what you not doing, game always ending in same way. This crap happening to me for at least 50 games in a row (with barely good games, like 1-2 good games for 10-15 bad). Just boring to play/grind, because there is no interest to tryhard/write there whatever you want and anyway get lose. Ah, and of course 1 of the best thing with current matchmaking - no matter how you play, anyway for 2-3 loses you get derank (3.8 KDA for last 10 games and ~3-3.5 KDA for last 25-35 games AT LEAST). Begging you for all players ranks recalibrate or matchmaking will be even worse then now (It's already peak). My STEAMID64 - https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198991529307

Yet another horrible match. Aside from this being horrendously one-sided there was a massive amount of bad behavior on both sides.

That Abrams did nothing but feed and abuse his team. The Kelvin was a pretty obvious smurf. The Bebop teabagged people.

It's pretty clear nobody cares about the report system and bad behavior isn't being punished. Awful matchmaking and bad behavior are going to kill this game if they aren't dealt with.
 
I'm Seeker 6/Alchemist 1 (red/blue), I get matched up with people from Arcanist (green) and even Ritualist (orange). Such people win the whole game against the other team and we cannot do much. Later I check these individuals on tracklock and here we go again - another player that is not supposed to be in this game.

I really like this game, but I feel bad due to this matchmaking.

Enemy team was running broken builds for infernus, shiv, vindicta, mirage. We kept up with soul count until about the 30 minutes mark where the whole enemy team reached their peak power spikes and it snowballed from there, so many stacks of ignite from infernus and siphon from mirage were being built and across the board it was difficult to take down any enemies because of how tanky they were. On top of all that, matchmaking has been pretty bad due to a decreasing player count and will continue to be bad, so its not worth playing anymore for the time being.

my lane enemy was clealy new to the game, i have over 200 games played. it felt bad to shoot the enemy team, this was a total stomp. i stopped shooting them and started clearing the objectives to not frustrate them more. one enemy left the match after 0/10 which i totaly understand.

15 minute game, complete stomp. The only guardian the other team got was destroyed by troopers as we were invading their fortress.

I am phantom 4 rank put into oracle 2 average game. Two of the players, which i assume are the low rank ones dragging the average down, went 2-14 and 4-14 (14k and 23k damage) in a 52 minute game. These super wide skill gap games are not fun.

45 minutes with a clueless team with 0 coordination, we just farmed ourside of the map until their lash and haze had 45k souls each and ended thegame.

I wanted to try out a new character, whole team got really stomped badly - 46kills to 6 at 24min. did not have competitive checked
 
Match ID: 30610255
Nearly 50k soul difference
27 Kill Difference
Granted I only have 17 games with Vindicta
However, I felt like my Seven may have been inting, did multiple low level turret dives and chased enemies too far at too far low of a level.

Cheers

Use this thread to share matchids for games that you think the matchmaker did a bad job at. If you can explain what you felt was a problem in it that would be helpful as well.

Do not post matchids for games that were within the past 24 hours from this post. Games older than that are fine and games going forward are fine.

Thanks for the help

The mechanics of the game are so done that shooting skills don't matter. The winner is the one who has an advantage in farming at a given time. That's why every match follows the same scenario: one of the teams gets a 2k souls advantage, makes a frag, increasing the gap to 3k souls, and by 10 minutes this team is snowballing with no way to catch up with them in souls, since there are no tools for comeback in the game. It's amazing that most players don't realize that the core mechanics of the game are broken. No matter how the developers customize the matchmaker, a team of 6 players will always have either the strongest or the weakest player who will create an advantage in farming, which will be the reason why one of the teams will win.
 
game is not playable like this, losing lane is one thing but having someone out of controll feed and just run down is not acceptable. Make grief bans count more. 60k souls gap in 20 minutes is absolutly wild
