dont wanna be that guy, I get theres new heroes but running into guardians with 1 hp and intentional dying is not how that works. Laned with billy he died about 9 times in 6 minutes and continued to fight and just die. This game was over from the start. This is not what archon 4 should look like. Also end game 57 kills to 20. Very unbalanced

No body like a cheater and I'm sure the developers are doing what they can to tackle the problem. They owe YOU nothing, how about you try and be a little more humble.

27 games in a row I que with only new heroes on high priority and dont get to play any of them. I only got Mina my first game. I thought maybe is just bad luck until my last game where Billy wasnt even in the match although several of us had him on High prio. 39229673
Ok, I’ve had my fair share of bad games, but this one really takes the cake. At just 15 minutes in, the enemy team already had a 30k soul lead, and it just kept skyrocketing as my teammates kept feeding. There was almost never a single moment where this game felt winnable.
According to statlocker.gg, my team was made up of:
Match ID: 39228677
According to statlocker.gg, my team was made up of:
- 1 × Emissary
- 3 × Ritualist (including myself)
- 2 × Unranked
- 2 × Archon
- 1 × Emissary
- 2 × Ritualist
- 1 × Unranked

1 enemy player left. then one teammate left, then 2 enemy players were missing. 5v4 in the favor of my team, at around 11min. we still lose the game...
i have check the stat of my team, i was first in term of troopers damages. no body in my team think about fix the wave... i had a Mina who bought the worst item in the character...
idk why the matchmaking put me in this r-word lobby

Another completely unbalanced game. Everyone just died to me, Kelvin, and a random Archon on Mina. The enemy team didn’t even have a chance, yet the game still considers their team’s rank higher than ours. I just don’t understand why you think it’s good to send all the new players or obscurus into Arcanist games. It’s not fun for me nor the players themselves. And most of the games end up like this.
And the worst treatment here goes to Holiday, being the only real ritualist-emissary on the enemy team having to endure this bullshit. And the worst thing is that every 4–5 games, you get to experience being in her position yourself.
The most frustrating thing is that you just can’t rank up. I can’t. My rank floated between Ritualist 3 and Emissary 1 for about 5–6 months. Then, after not playing for a month, I was dropped into Arcanist 1. Seven months later, I’m still stuck at Arcanist -56 because every match is filled with new or Obscurus players who at 90% of games just feed the enemies—or one random archon-oracle-phantom who solo entire teams by themselves.
This game has it all: full teams of Obscurus with one poor Ritualist Holiday, going up against me and Kelvin Mina, who both Statlocker considers Archons.
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE, VALVE. SEND ALL THE NEW AND OBSCURUS PLAYERS INTO SEEKER–ALCHEMIST GAMES. LET THEM CLIMB. YOU CREATED THESE RANKS FOR A REASON.
And it feels like new update made this even worse. My winrate dropped from 52% to 47% and keeps dropping lower and lower. PLS FIX THE MATCHMAKING.

I don't understand anything, why the game throws me against archons, and at the start I'm standing in line with them (with a guy who just kills himself against them).
I don't know, this is already the 10th game where I have almost the lowest rank. And for winning such games the game does not push me in rank at all, how to understand this? Why?
And the fact is that Paradox and Yamato either smurf or duos or both. And they are also the strongest in the lobby and play against arcanists. Cool distribution of teams, fair.
I have never seen such a shitty MM anywhere. The game specifically creates conditions in which you will suffer and lose. While others are enjoying the game.
How does the balance work?
Let's say you have 5 ritualists, the game gives you another archont (who won't give impact, and might get burned, because teammates won't listen to calls and play for him). This is not a counter strike, a high rank cannot give aces every round, there are no rounds.
And the game can put 6 emissaries against you, who will synergize intuitively with a high chance.
What can I say, give a cash prize to whoever came up with this.

It's all one cheater with aimbot + wallhack, and these are not all the matches i got to play with him in one lobby. report him after every game, each game tell everyone in lobby that he's a cheater and ask to report him, but somehow he is still not banned

yo deadlock dev, how you gonna pair emissary vs oracle and have a geist that is supposedly rank 4th, 5th and 10th, that low in the bracket?
second game, same problem. your games aren't fun after a new update comes out because your matchmaking is so shit @Yoshi fix it man. im so lazy going against high phantoms to eternus players.

griefing geist as usual.

archon vs phantom, amazing job -.-
Amazing how one can know the game will be garbage in the first 30seconds, good job giving me ONLY the already reported ones. As I least I will not even expect a playable match.

This makes no sense anymore. Before these updates I was on a winning streak, but now the game feels broken.
Cheating is a serious issue: auto-parry IS NOT A GAME MECHANIC, it’s an external tool, and more and more players are abusing it along with macros.
BUT THE WORST PROBLEM IS THE MATCHMAKING. How is it possible that in one of my first matches with Kelvin I’m placed against experienced players while MY TEAM IS FULL OF BOTS?
I’ve attached two screenshots to prove it: THERE IS NO BALANCE and something needs to change NOW.

The Holiday was so far off from the other players - had 28 kills, most horrible experience I've had in Deadlock so far.
Would be great to also ask to match with players that have microphones, my team was completely silent, barely any pings too.
It seems like Deadlock does an average of the levels and a "carry" for each team, but that leads to a terrible experience since it feels like it comes down to the skill difference between the carries

Viscous admitted to smurfing. Bebop called him a slur.
