Bad Matchmaking Thread

[MMG]

Perhaps they just don't know how to do proper matchmaking?
At this point the game feels extremely exhausting no matter how hard you try.
At the end of few matches I find myself asking why I waste time on this "test', when I feel like a lab rat for sweaty stacks.
There is no sense of progress or satisfaction in finishing the match.
Not sure if these people smurf a lot or there is a circumvent method to get into low ranked lobbies, so they can trash other players.
One thing is for sure, the players base will tank after they had tasted the new characters.
Then , maybe, they will ask again, how the hell did this happen again (massive drop in playerbase in the first wave).

I have never played online game that was this horrible (except Apex at one point maybe).
What can you do to thrive the playerbase and keep people interested in the game?
More furry shit for bearded manchildren? Some anime treats for lonely teenagers?

Match 39498534 and match 39495299
I keep trying to get me and my friends (3 of us in total) into the game (we all last played around a year ago maybe) but its always the case that we go into people who are significantly better than us

Worthless devs doing nothing to actually fix the matchmaking

Doesn't seem like there was any chance of redemption even. Over 60k soul difference in the end.

Edit: another match: 39508726 - Seems like the Haze was either smurfing or misplaced.

Neither of these games felt appropriate to their rank, even slightly.

Worthless devs doing nothing to actually fix the matchmaking

At this point its painfully obvious the dev working on this game is absolutely not qualified to work on any game. Valve has been a staple for decades, and now all i hear and see is people talking about the fall of Valve because of this dev. Alpha, beta, etc.. doesnt matter, the way the match making has been handled, the cheaters, the griefers, etc.. game is dead already.

There is no game on this Earth with matchmaking as bad as deadlock. 50k player now, give it a month.

Todays suffering. Daily affirmation, you're not hard-stuck because you're bad, you're hard-stuck because they somehow conjure up the most mentally incapable teammates consistently. All three of these are back to back to back. This game will NEVER hold a player base if it continues to be this bad, why would anyone want to improve at a game where you can't actually improve the result.

Oracle player got put in a Seeker/Initiate lobby
Match ID: 39528020



I got put on haze which I don't often play and It felt like smurfing, this was not very enjoyable on my part.
Obviously this game was a stomp making it un-fun for the enemy team and my teammates
I'm not sure if this is fixable as this is SEA servers very late at night.

The game doesn't want you to win (I won two games in a row), so it turned out that I was the only one on the team who got a positive KD.

Match ID : 39528241 Game where i had doorman on high prio only and still ended on my white pick despite no doormans in the lobby.

@Yoshi do you still look at this thread? 3 full ranks difference in average rank - we didn't stand a single chance. it is somehow worse than it used to be 39540466

I'm new, friend is new. Some 50k soul difference it felt so unfun to play... Unsure if its a comp issue or skill disparity

 

[yoApolloboy]

Queued with some buddies. Our average rank is emissary ish? Highest ranking is Archon... It put us against an Eternus player and Oracle and Phantom players...

This match just shows why this game's balancing is a crapshoot

Honestly at this point ,you can't even get good data when it's so biased

I don't really think the match IDs will help. I think you need to see the skill level and pair them up with something adequately. Games are worse now with matchmaking than when I started playing on release. I'm not too sure what has happened but it would be good to have like some low skill players with some high skill players rather than high skill players stomping low skill players. I feel like I just wasted my last 3 matches and had no joy in coming back to this poor matchmaking...
