1756610905568.pngWhy put all the group wide CC on one team? Seriously, what is wrong with you, @Yoshi? Do you not know how to code proper matchmaking based on rank AND character role/selection? Your team knows how to give only regular characters to those who high priority the new characters, so why not actually do something for once that actually would benefit gameplay?

Played 19 games that were either me steamrolling or me getting steamrolled. This is not fun anymore. Your match-making is dogshit.

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

SA match making makes the game very unfun to play, many of my friends quit the game because of this :(

Match 40428737, really awful hour long stalemate, that ended in haze just jumping in and ulting the patron after her entire team was dead. One team has both a vindicta and a grey talon, which was really annoying. Overall one of the worst matches I've played.

i mean... it seems to me that there should be some kind of reward for the efforts of the players, i should try to win so that other players ruin it for me? i don't mean to sound toxic or aggressive, i just find it really frustrating, i really appreciate this game and i appreciate yall, devs!
 
Hey @Yoshi and dev team, these 2 guys were griefing the whole game. do us a favour and ban them thanks. the report button works right? they should get banned so i hope you guys do your job! Here's the clip. You can tell by them doing only 4k damage. Here's their username

ID 40445437: Match full of smurfs against rookie players. It's incredible that the game punishes you with matches like this just for improving your rank. After a good winning streak, I always start getting placed in games that are impossible to carry, and to make it worse, I'm forced to play with my worst champion among the selected ones. I don't know if the report button for smurfs actually does anything, but I don't see the point in matching games like this. There shouldn't be such a huge gap between players, and smurfs should be detected faster to prevent new players like those on my team from facing them. Otherwise, the game is doomed to rot without a steady flow of people willing to learn it.

I also find it unbelievable how poorly heroes are distributed in some matches. The best heroes in the roster are all placed on one side, while on the other, you have new players trying out some of the weakest or most difficult characters. It's obvious they're going to get crushed. I love the game and I wouldn’t want to see it die. However, matches like these kill people’s interest in learning how to play, and that’s an opinion you can easily confirm by reading posts in this thread or checking the content being shared on platforms like Reddit or YouTube. Now that the hype and novelty of the heroes have passed, I really hope more time is invested into improving the matchmaking system, hero selection balance, and bans for players who ruin the experience for everyone else.
 
This was trash matchmaking idk what else to do like the couple of games have been just this
