Bad Matchmaking Thread

outrank.png
Every game today i've been party queueing with exclusively australian players and getting placed in 110+ping SEA lobbies where it becomes immediately apparent that our opponents have <5ms connections and deny every soul effortlessly. On top of that, every single game today has been of a significant outrank, matchmaking has become utterly unplayable, except maybe solo queued which i haven't tried.
 
Another great game: 42149235
What I really love is constantly getting teams that run around as 4 chasing one enemy team mate, while never farming, ensuring that we fall 40-50k behind every game.

The matchmaking is by far the way way way worst aspect of this game. Players who want to improve have no way of doing this, because they are either facing A) Way to highly ranked players or B) complete beginners. All you're doing is screwing over the new players by having them face good players and completely destroying the games for good and decent players by grouping them with team mates who have no clue whatsoever how the game works.

Oh and I'M HAVING FUNCTIONS BLOCKED for reporting players feeding into the enemy team 10+ times, throwing the game completely.

But yea, a Archon player on one of the best carries in a sub arcanist 6 lobby is just absolutely fine! How could that POSSIBLY affect the gameplay negatively? I went 2-0-5 in lane just to get instantly deleted by their Lash, and the Drifter and Haze I shut down were suddenly 10k+ ahead of me and equal in souls, riding of the back of Lash.

You need to listen to what your boss Gaben said: Is it fun?
Please explain how "Getting stomped by a player far superior to you in skill" is a fun experience? Or maybe "Perform well but get punished by team mates who either intentionally feed or are so below in skill level that they are more or less boosted to their rank, thus ruining yours" is fun?

You've made a team game and right now its just soo far from it that it's wild. As a McGuinness player I have almost 0 impact when the carries are completely useless. But then again we should just all play carries, right? Why play the whole cast when you can just all que Haze, Wraith and Drifter. Why not just make a Battlefield copy or maybe CoD? If you make the cast unusable because you wont fix matchmaking then you might as well.

Should I just hire someone to boost me? Is that the intended business model? That players who want to improve just hire someone with cash to get a chance?

I'm not sure if this is the place, but do we post bad team make ups here?

Just had a game where one side had a tank, a range support and 2 hyper carries whilst my team had 3 support and 3 squishy backline types. The game was over before it began.

In my last 24 games, I have won 5. Let that sink in. MM has given me a 20% win rate. "Oh but you are just playing bad." No... absolutely not. I had the designated feeding shitter enmasse today. Four people in double digit deaths. I was the only person consistently able to do something against their team to the point I had Billy and Doorman wading through my team just to try and ult me.

What does my team do "GO MID WE KILLED OF THEM." No you dumb fucks. Dynamo is next to you with ult and you STILL haven't taken blue guardian for Flex. Guess what team gets Dynamo ulted and loses.

Why are my matches like this? Why is it that when I am Aracanist 1 I get good team mates and it stays that way, but for some reason the moment I climb out and into ritualist, MM gives me these braindead fuckers until I'm tanked back down to Arc1. THEN I get the good players on my team. Rinse and repeat.

It's the same story over and over. I play well in low rank, MM graces me with people who aren't on life support, climb a little, get given a 20% win rate with 6 game loss streaks and braindead team mates, then I get given the good people again once my rank is destroyed.

Your MM is fucking garbage. Anyone who says otherwise is a bootlicker and coping. "It's player count!" That excuse doesn't hold up anymore because the game is more popular than ever. Your MM is shit and you are shit..

Would you look at that. HOLY SHIT. Literal fucking monkeys on my team. Once again THREE designated shitters on my team. How do you do 7k damage as Lash in a 30min game?

PLEASE STOP PUTTING USELESS FUCKING IDIOTS ON MY TEAM
 
Why is this forum even up still, the game is so unplayable its not even funny. If you are enjoying this game, once you win a few times, it completely sand bags you every match. Devs are absolutely brain dead.

The enemy Calico was wrecking us the entire match and they turned out to be in Eternus. Excuse my language here, but why the fuck is an Eternus player wrecking the lobbies in Emissary-Ritualist?? This is so beyond unfair and frustrating because there's nothing one can do against that, the skill level discrepancy is just too high. I'm hoping these reports are genuinely being looked into, because this just is beyond frustrating going on a losing spree because your team didn't get the Eternus player on their team.

Don't know if it was because I deranked to Ritualist V due to so many bad games, or if I just had a good game, but it felt very unfair from the start when I got their walkers in under 10 minutes.

Let someone else who actually has integrity take over because clearly, you favor greed and corruption over actual enforcement of rules.
Also, this account is admitted to smurfing with an alt: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199066808298, https://statlocker.gg/profile/1106542570/matches. You actually don't do shit, @Yoshi, about the smurfs. And people wonder why the player count is going down even more.
 
The MM needs some kind of fix or ranks need to be disincentivized from play until launch. Not only are so many lopsided games insanely unfun to play, it also encourages people to onetrick heroes and play extremely selfishly, severely harming the feel of the game.

I hate to tell you this but Yoshi is a community alias, they don't do anything with development and are just an anonymous feedback punching bag.

Game is going really well for our team, then someone's crit damage is out of control and they can see our every move. To confirm, I go inside a veil and just sit there. Paige and their whole team immediately walk right in there, then claim I was seen on the map. Can you please ban obvious cheaters? We didn't deserve this loss.
 
42095345, 42112883

first and last matches of this play session. the four in between these matches were good.

42095345, the emmissarry billy player, TheSightz (if you are reading this, fuck you,) spent at least 5 minutes on mic beneath our walker literally screaming, after pausing the match to take a bong rip and hard feeding lane. meanwhile he was screaming, i took the guardian and most of the walker hp, he goes and kills himself under walker to finish taking it, then continues his tyrade on mic. I DID ALL THE WORK, GROW SOME RESPECT FOR YOUR TEAMMATES. he throws by just going afk in jungle for the rest of the game.
I am seeker 3, (i ranked up to 4 but back down due to the second match) and he is emmissary 3. He has the mental fortitude of a kindergartener, how is he in my match and how am i still being placed with brand new players? (no hate to newbies)

second match, 3 of my teammates cannot secure A SINGLE KILL. the other team wipes us, ivy solo pushes into lash slams until she ragequits, game is a total noncompete, and there is no option to abandon until like 20 minutes in. actual agony.
Lash is ritualist 5, ivy is obscurus. there is evidently a skill gap here, and i could have told you that 2 minutes into lane, and i wasn't even IN THE LANE. 1757882656187.png
