Bad Matchmaking Thread

Blatant aimbot on Haze since minute 0. Can we just ban anyone who has any kind of ban on their account, whether it's a VAC or game ban?
I'm so sick of people ruining this game for me just because they derive enjoyment from making others suffer. I just want to play in a fair environment.
I haven’t seen a single cheater turn into a frog, and I’ve been playing for a little over a year now.
Valve, please fix.

In summary, experienced players are using new accounts to test exploits on the new map. You can see how Pocker spent much of the match watching from an invisible roof above the map, providing information and clearing lanes. Not only are they using smurf accounts to take advantage of novice players, but they are also using actual cheats. I would like to see categorical and exemplary sanctions applied to this type of player. It is truly annoying and completely ruins the gaming experience.

It's all the same over and over again. Smurfs, trolls, useless teammates. Loosing over and over and over again.
Thank you Yoshi
 
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

In all of these matches it was a team where the Average rating was high Phantom or low Ascendant vs a team of Arcanist/Ritualist. The match times reflect the difference in skill. I also was queueing with my friend whos High Ritualist and I am Low Archon

It must be fun time for them, then they make videos and analyze why the game lost player count. Matchmaking is surely broken and the game doesn't feel fun but like a choir. It's nowhere near ready for open beta in this state. Perhaps they should take into consideration what average players want in game, not cater to pro sweaty 00-24h deadlock bearded manchild.
 
Match 39012199

Our team's Yamato got stuck in the enemy team's escape tunnel (the one on the left side when you approach their spawn). Not sure how it happened but I think it may have happened when she used her grappling ability as an enemy player was entering the tunnel. The player said they were unable to use the "Unstuck" button to get out.
 
do something with your rank shuffle in mathces. i phantom 5 and pick Geist by first time, i playing around 10 games destroying everything on alchemist average, only time i lost is when i get full stack of 10 hours begginers with absolutly no understanding of the game. even when i play on my mains like abrams, caliko, poket i still get stuck in low rank lobby and have zero fun. putting on 1 team full stack of alchemist with 1 phantom and on other stack of archonts with 1 emmisary its not good matchmaking. let me play with my bros phantoms (my eng can be bad)432232222.jpg

Seems like the matchmaker is shitting itself and has no idea what to do with parties anymore. But I'm a solo and idk why I have to deal with these wide spread parties. Its like this patch broke the matchmaker

Enemy Geist (Cigarette Daydreams) was an obvious smurf. Brand new account, 75% WR, 1 friend. Maybe cheating? Nothing clearly cheating but definitely a smurf and whenever I see an account like this I get suspicious

Usually I'm on the team getting stomped but this one was one-sided in the other direction. Can't imagine that this was fun at all for the other team.

I don't think my teammates even understood the basics of the game. All they did was run at the other team and die over and over.

This game is crazy broken. every single game over the past month has been insanely lop sided, its not fun to win easily, and it sucks to get stomped into the ground by a team of admitted smurfs, joking, gg ez, etc.. What is the point of such a broken system? You made the game pretty, but the core is so horribly broken, no wonder people are leaving in droves.
