Bad Matchmaking Thread

[Samosvalovich]

So rank update actually made everything worse?

It was always clear that teamdiff in your games is always huge, no matter you won or lost, its pretty clear that you all not being at the same skill level. But its never been more clear then it is right now.

I wonder what chances AI would give them of winning, given the difference in ranks. Because these aren't even games, not matches. There was no fight. It's clear from the matchmaking stage which team is probably going to win.

And I could be optimistic about it, becouse obviously a lot of people gonna get deranked to where they belong. But I dont understand whats the problem of balancing matches using metrics we already have, which as we can see are actually good at reflecting skill group of players.

Over 50k soul difference in the end, they had our base before we got even one of their walkers. Multiple people on their team had 10+ kills, they were 30 kills up on us and just steamrolled us entire game. Very unbalanced and unfun game.

44877069, rank update is shit. You broke Paradox's carbine, then you broke MM with extremely lopsided matches. Your game is absolute dogshit.

Sack of shit developers can't even balance team comps right. This is on top of having worse reg on hits now, having more jitters, more teleportation due to such jitters, bugs such as Paradox carbine, etc. Don't ever touch another game again, Valve. Stick to using Steam to make money as a platform.

44887529 || 5 / 34 and apparently "Everyones solo." Easily the worst match Ive had in months; on a character that should've had enough decay to not be ranking so high; seeming to rank higher than some of my other heros MMR.

My rank changes after each game, a defeat is demoted, a victory is promoted. At the same time, the teammate who plays every game with me does not change the rank. This started happening right after the patch has been going on ever since. Is this a bug? Why is this happening?

Yamato going 2-12, other 1-10, 1-9 amazing match up.

Holy fuck this mm sucks ass huh?
How much more shit can I take before forgetting about the game and telling everyone that it's pure garbage?

not sure why I keep consistently getting completely grieving teammates in oracle lobbies. I shut this Abrams down in lane but bebop just feeds him over and over again like hes never played the game before, then goes trophy collector (ending the game with 2 stacks btw). whats the play to get high enough rank to no longer have to deal with this griefing nonsense? just spam Warden and Abrams to solo carry?

ranks should probably decay or something because lots of people im getting in my games are just straight up lost

It happens in every fucking rank if the input in this thread is at least somewhat accurate.

Your game sucks, holy shit. Losers queue is real. 44895690
You've put me into a 20 game losing streak. How is anyone supposed to want to continue playing unless you're trying to have engagement based matchmaking based on losers psychology? Oh wait, that's exactly what you're doing to create an addictive environment by time loot boxes come around.

3 teammates gigafed, infernus and mina pause abused at the end to bm (pausing a quarter second before patron died to talk shit, pretending they "had to go to the bathroom" after i told them it gets you permabanned)

44901886 || havent played calico for over 7 games; last game was pre-shop update. For some reason seemed to put me with much higher skilled opponents in lane and overall. Infact, the player I was against is a might higher ELO than even my top rank hero.

@Yoshi , if your idea of fun is giving people extremely long loss streaks, then you've achieved your goal. I just had to dissuade someone from playing the game because even though it looked fun to them, the game just has too poor quality matchmaking to even proceed.
44900994, 44895690, 44881966, 44879821, 44877069. Also, btw, all these games were at the East Coast servers, whereas I am West Coast. If I play an aim character, I cannot for the life shoot because the characters are too jittery to hit. In fact, all of my games thus far have been on the East Coast. Actually get a West Coast server up?
