Bad Matchmaking Thread

just more proof that boosting every low elo shitter to oracle doesn't fix anything only promotes more problems blue lane just gave drifter enough stacks within ten minutes to just snowball the rest of my team blue lane also had more combined deaths than any other lane every single person on my team was obscurus every single person on the enemy team was phantom or higher actually go fuck yourself Yoshi this isn't fun to any human being with a fully developed brain

Every second game on Ascendants involves cheaters.

I played four games in a row in matchmaking against cheaters(mostly they play in party) this is already the FIFTH game in 24 hours. And it's the same "players" who keep getting picked against or in my team. Here's a perfect example of an average game against cheaters, where the enemy Shiv tried his best to help our team win, but it didn't work. The cheater's nickname is a Twitch channel link, and his friend's nickname uses a racial slur. The point is that this is a transition to another social network where a referral link for purchasing cheats is located. When will this end? Is this matchmaking? Why can't I play Deadlock? Why people with several game bans on steam can play the game ? Matchmaking is literally unplayable at the moment.

Ok honestly this made me laugh and is probably the biggest sign that matchmaking is busted XD

This guy goes negative stats EVERY GAME, like a kd ratio of 5 DEATHS PER KILL!

Somehow the game places him in a Archon lobby? Like what?! XD

The enemy team runs with
Oracle: 3
Phantom: 1
Emissary: 2

We get:
Oracle: 1
Phantom: 1
Archon: 2
Emissary: 1
Arcanist: 1

Oh and they have 2 duos, while we have none?

What kind of math hurdles do you jump through to say that THEIR team is lower rank? This is actual comedy at this point.

I am writing to report two players who appear to be the same individual using cheats in Deadlock. The player goes by the nicknames "ТУПЕЙШИЙ ЗЕК" and "ФЕДЕНЬКА" and is consistently playing with hacks on ranks ETERNUS V to ETERNUS VI.

In nearly every game, this player achieves an unrealistically high headshot rate of up to 70%. There is clear evidence of active wallhack usage, allowing them to track enemies through walls, and aimbot, resulting in perfect accuracy. Remarkably, they do not miss a single bullet in each match, which is impossible without external assistance.

Here are the links to their Steam profiles:
Specific match IDs where this behavior is evident include:
  • 45351658
  • 45406290
  • 45267824
  • 45264351 And this pattern continues in every subsequent match. All of these games involve the player queuing in a party, using cheats, and securing victories.
Additionally, when playing as the character Vindicta, the player exhibits blatant automatic finishing with the ultimate ability, landing every shot without a single miss, further indicating aimbot usage.

I strongly urge you to investigate and ban this cheater permanently. Furthermore, please review and ban all players who have been queuing in parties with them, as they are likely aware of and benefiting from the cheating.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Cheating ruins the experience for fair players, and swift action would be greatly appreciated.

I am on a 8 loss streak ever since the matchmaking issue, I keep on having teammates that have no clue of what's going on!

I just need to vent a bit – the matchmaking in Deadlock feels absolutely terrible right now.
I’ve lost 13 games in a row, and every single time I get teammates who barely contribute. I’m doing everything I can, usually being 10–20k souls ahead of my teammates, but as soon as the enemy team focuses me and I die, it’s basically 1v6 and the game is over.


The worst part is that after 20–30 minutes, I usually have 30–40k souls, while my teammates sit at around 10–15k. How are we supposed to win like that? I can’t rank up because the matchmaking keeps putting me with much weaker players. Either I should be placed higher, or my teammates should be lower so the matches feel fairer.


And to make things even worse, I end up getting a chat restrict and a report restrict just for expressing my frustration. I know I should stay calm, but it’s really hard when you give everything and still keep losing.


I do report players when they clearly do nothing or seem to grief – what else am I supposed to do when someone falls that far behind? Honestly, I have no idea how some of these players even reach this rank.


The sad part is that the enemy teams are always solid, coordinated, and strong, while my teams feel completely lost.
I just really hope the matchmaking becomes more balanced and fair – right now it’s just pure frustration.

enemy team is always solid every lane but in my team i get droolers. straight up most abusive matchmaking system i've ever seen. i've played games with less players that had a better matchmaking than this bs
 
Match ID 45419363

I'm not sure about the matchmaking when the enemy team had a 70k soul lead on us almost the entire match. We barely got their towers and they had our base. Seems extremely unbalanced and multiple people struggled on our team.
 
Match ID 45423983
Another absolute insane game where we're 70k behind, nobody uses mic and it seems to be an absolute struggle. What an awfully uneven game again.

Match ID 45426306
Both Mina and Victor on our team used multiple racial slurs throughout the entire match, were extremely sexist and then after throwing their lane and the game went afk in spawn. Refused to disconnect but were just shouting dumb stuff like "we can't win because we have a woman on our team". Over 50k soul difference again, and there was an absolute 0 chance for comeback. Unbelievable.

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
