Bad Matchmaking Thread

Please add a fucking draft, @Yoshi 42923676, no easy mode CC on our team. This has happened multiple times, and no matter what counters you build, they still can get it off because you dick ride the pros so much that you give CC such a huge hall pass. Go fuck yourself, and hope whatever family you have abandons you in shame for a shit game.

Yeah very fun and game fair game. Having brand new players going agaisnt oracles and emmisarys. bunch of horsehit. thanks devs. 3rd game in a row with this bullshit. Like how to do group people with that huge of a rank gap going against each other. 4 ranks above our lowest player. Thanks. again.

Also the extra competitve button doesnt do fucking jack shit if all im getting is matches like this. I rather have a fair team then this fucking bull shit you dumbass.

42796228 : I think everyone was practicing? did similar damage as Viscous and bad kda, no other 'role' than dps/spirit dps on our team as well
42787524 : Similar, everyone was doing bad for some reason
Generally don't like it when I'm acting aggressive in lane and I get teammed with someone who farms and don't partake in fight with me
 
42926809 our pocket said it was their second game ever - this is in arcanist II on the other team, he went 0-9 and the other team all swept us.

Drifter went 34/5, he bought only yellow items. Carried their entire team. Literally nothing I could do after he had 10 kills. In a 35 minute match, meaning he got about a kill a minute.
He once shot me 3x in the face from his max range, Lucky Shot proc'd, Headshot proc'd 2x and I died.
He wasn't even really using skills after midgame, just left-clicking and the team was dying.
My team didn't really seem to know what they were doing, Billy died 15+ times.

Haze followed Yamato for the whole match and did nothing else, promised to ruin this match because we wrecked them in the last one. So we did

How long am I going to play EVERY SINGLE GAME in lobbies that are -2 or -3 ranks lower than mine? By the way, this accounts for around 90% of all games. At first, I assumed it was just because there weren't enough players matching my Ascendant rank in the game. But here’s what happened next: I logged into an account with Phantom—same issue. Then I tried logging into an account with Oracle—again, the exact same problem. Finally, I switched to an account with Emissary—and surprise! Another lobby that's -2 or -3 ranks below me. Do you honestly believe that the game can retain its player base while 99% of matches consist of five players mindlessly farming the jungle AFK? Or maybe waiting over ten minutes for such underwhelming matchups will solve things?

I sincerely hope you're being compensated accordingly, like getting paid -20% one month and -30% the next—that might make sense of it all. My question goes straight to those accountable for this mess. Visually and audibly, the game is top-notch, although it's not without its glitches. However, none of them irritate me half as much as dealing with this frustration every single day.

In that case, the only correct option I see is to register new accounts and spoil the game for beginners, since there games are found quickly and lobbies are matched by rank.

By the way, I'm playing on European servers, and there are plenty of players of my rank, but for some reason the game doesn't think so :).
 
42986940 - Queued with 2 others in the same party, ended up in a Lobby that is Archon 3, while me and the Kelvin in this match were in Arcanist. Extremely unfun as we got stomped the entire laning phase and ended up with only 5ish kills total against the enemy team.
 
Why is the matchmaking so bad lately? I'm Arcanist V and it feels like there's more steamrolls than balanced, fair games as of late. There's usually one team who can't keep any of their objectives while the other keeps three walkers up. This isn't healthy for the game at all and I feel like this needs to be addressed soon!

Past lane phase, their Wraith and Seven ran away with the game. Our team did a terrible job catching farm and fell very far behind. Felt incredibly one sided past the 20 minute mark
 
Is it true Asia has their Eternus/Ascendant/Phantom/Oracles shoved into Archon/Emissary games in other regions because their player population is simply too small for expedient queue times? That makes sense from a "lets get going" point of view, but not at all from a skill oriented framework.
 
I swear, @Yoshi , you keep giving matches where Lash and Dynamo just have crazy CC while the other team does not have that shit. I get that you want to suck the pros' dicks so fucking hard, but give the fucking casual players at least some fun cause at this point, this game fucking sucks, and you should stop working on this game because you're just making it unfun loser filled work. 1758600534949.png
 
43016324 - 2 players were extreme below the average skill level of Arcanist V in this match. Lash went 2-14 (may have been intentionally feeding) and Dynamo also 14 deaths. Huge disparity with enemy.
