Bad Matchmaking Thread

Me and a friend as a duo
4 losses in a row against the same 3-stack.

The change in average ranks make no sense. In the 2nd match, there was a significant gap between the 2 sides (Acanist V vs Emissary I). In the last match both teams were the same rank (Arcanist I). How does that make any sense? Shouldn't the consistent results be moving these players apart?

Also, we noticed a few additional repeated players in those matches, and somehow they always landed on the same side
 
I need to be actually physically removed from the rank i am and put back to where i was.

I cannot enjoy this game. I cannot play this game. and i cannot have a positive experience with this play test any longer.

Its match after match after match where i get bone head team mates thats dont know how to play the game. All they know how to do is farm and shoot the enemies and even with player advantages they decide to farm instead of pushing objectives.

I need to be taken out of this rank because it is impossible to climb when i lose 3-4 games in a row right after gaining 1 placement rank. It takes 3 matches to drop and 8 matches to climb.

I cannot 1v6 the whole game. im the only one pushing objectives and i constantly die for it because i have no teammates to back me up. they are are off in lala land doing who knows what.

Put me back in Emisarry where i was 6 months ago, before the game decided to drop me ranks after losing my first 2 matches when i came back.

The match making is so bad it makes the game bad and this play test unenjoyable.

I want to play with team mates that know that youre supposed to push objectives. I am so frustrated.

What in Gods name is going on with your matchmaking the last two weeks my lord. If you think im some kind of Godlike player that can carry an entire shortbus of teammates every game you are sadly mistaking.

I should really be sharing the plethora of mentally challenged match IDS , but I really dont feel like copying two weeks of IDs.

I genuinely cannot fathom where you find the people that you put on my team. And every single time one of them opens their mouth over voice chat, I absolutely know that your algorithm can systematically find players with additional chromosomes, and put them on my team.

Anyhow, here is one of many IDS of my team feeding the enemy team right from their tit.

Literally the worst matchmaking system in gaming. Valve has 0 ability to create game that are well balanced from a player skill point and from a team comp point. This matchmaker will create stomps that last 22 mins then the next game will be almost the same teams again. Valve needs to fire the guy in charge of this system. It blows my mind some of the matches that are generated. Random chance would do a better job.

Smurf accs just destroy matchmaking, 12 loses, i drop from emiisary to alchemist, no smurf accs in my team, only as enemies....
and stupid comeback system that just turn your match into lose just in one second
 
Now youre just messing with me at this point.

What in gods name of matchmaking are you doing to me valve..

If im playing decent enough I should break even at a 50% WR. But you keep digging through the woodworks to find the most scabby leechy toxic feeding players in your base to make sure they end up on my team. Infuriating. Your current matchmaking is absolute garbage. No dumpster fire. No dumptruck fire. No..a godamn landfill of atrocity. Ive never experienced such an egregious algorithm of trying to put a triangle peg through a rectangle hole. Your algo must litereally thinnk I am the greatest deadlock player to ever live, who could carry the special olymptics on his back in this game. And its absolutely wrong.

here is a match ID where viper thinks he is an indestructible being of nature, and feeding isn't remotely a possibility.

Thanks again for wasting my time.
 
Pick anyone you would like. I legit grinded with a nice strong winrate and some winstreaks from Arcanist to Emissary 2 (previously an archon player) and as soon as I hit Em2. BOOM. Valve strapped on a big ol pink one and though to themselves "well this guy clearly doesnt care about how he spends his time so lets find every window licker possible, and assemble the behavioral bus version of the suicide squad for his teammates. He will love that"
