Bad Matchmaking Thread

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.

Why are we carrying around this deadweight Kelvin with us?

Also the Moe DC'd.

Can you not do a lick of matchmaking. Anything. Look at the disparity in player damage on my team. Look at theirs.

Do you think anyone wants to play these matches?

Thank you Valve employees for reading this thread regularly and at least making sure you're giving us an official well-written explanation about why your matchmaking makes your "game" unplayable, even though you can't fix it yet because figuring out the heroes' pronouns obviously takes a priority in these dark times that are a threat to our democracy.

This game really is strange. Game WAS fun, until they totally messed up the match making. Now its so confusing. Its wildly clear the devs on this game are absolutely in over their heads, have no idea what they are doing. This has soured me to Valve in whole on another level. They are actually employing devs that are this terrible, its mind blowing.

You're not entirely right — the main priority for Valve employees right now is to update the Cheat Death icon for the umpteenth time. After all, why fix matchmaking for regular players when there's feedback from the test server?

probably the last i'm ever posting here because the situation is pretty obvious, i imagine the matchmaking is just not top of the list issues-wise but a literal second game player in this match is not kino

There are players who shouldn't be matched like that... Game imbalance, like the vast majority of matches I'm seeing, a 50/50.
 
Do not put solo queue players against duo queue players. It makes for unfair matchmaking. https://statlocker.gg/profile/361646659/matches https://statlocker.gg/profile/1117527892/matches These two players are purposefully using matchmaking to get solo queue players against them so that they have an advantage. 43098021 @Yoshi, you have done nothing for the regular player base, but catered to the pros. I just had to recommend someone against being introduced to this game because of all the faults that makes the game absolutely trash to deal with.
