Bad Matchmaking Thread

[huskerknight1]

Until you realize that they viciously assigned certain accounts more loss streaks to create an addictive atmosphere based on psychology to squeeze you dry of money. That kind of predatory behavior is prevalent with Valve games nowadays. That's what they're testing on certain accounts. That's why I have a problem with this game. And I'll do whatever I can to discourage any incoming players from playing this game. So far, at least 10 people have asked what Deadlock is, and I tell them that it's not going to be a good game to get into.

Nothing ever gets done by the dev team, being polite does nothing because they just take our good will and stomp it on the ground. No more catering to these fucks. These peeps do not deserve to have families at all because if they did, their children would probably turn out to be horrible human beings.

You need psychological counselling if you're getting so frustated over matchmaking imperfections in an unreleased game that's barely a year old that you hope people do not have families and start to theorize that the matchmaking is purposefully made to be addictive and "squeeze us dry" (the game is free?...)

Take a break.

EDIT: You have over 1k games played on Paradox alone and 238 pages of matches according to Statlocker, and three of your previous names are sexual jokes (being "Penis Bender", "Hotwife Admirer", and "BulgyWulgy"). Please take a break from the internet.

2 feeders on my team and an arguably busted haze on the enemy team. It would literally take our entire team to kill Haze, and by that time, you could sneeze on us and take out half of us. Haze played like a pro, idk how they were put into an Arcanist II team. This matchmaking needs to be studied.

Hard agree, this has crossed into real problem territory.

Matched with a Haze that went 2 and 14 against a Calico that clearly was playing below their skill rating, and had the most stationary healthbar I've ever seen. Calico is straight up busted right now, nevermind in the hands of someone who knows how to play them well.

nah, tonight's matchmaking has been straight cheeks. y'all need to tighten up the rank spread when forming teams, and/or address smurfing. the game is not fun to play when matchmaking is this bad.

WAITER, MORE BAD MATCHMAKING PLEASE ! ! ! ! ! I love my friends team (along with the rest of the team) getting utterly eviscerated and also a hyperfed Billy. Bonus points for the Kelvin throwing so bad

I think I speak for everyone when I say idc if the Q time is 5x longer to find a quality match better to wait a few minutes in Q then suffer through a completely imbalanced game for 45 minutes. You need to address this ASAP. 424 pages on this thread countless discussions on steam and discord all about the piss poor matchmaking and yet you refuse to acknowledge it at all. Stack cancer ruins the experience for everyone but the eternally online discord sweats. Your team desperately needs a community manager or something to actually speak about whats going on behind the scenes. This radio silence shit is not it.

Southeast Asia/ Asia server in a nutshell. The Abraham disconnected and never reconnected.

I recommend looking into it. The new update for the rank has not done any wonders so far. My team are throwing (give a benefit of a doubt if they are new players) but I was a playtester from last year so far the quality of the playerbase has been downhill.

3 feeders and the most useless Billy I've ever seen, up against the most insufferable Kelvin and Haze. Haze is objectively overtuned - there's a reason why she's in every lobby ever. Anyway, it's clear there was a massive skill gap between the two teams. Yet another instance of garbage matchmaking.

These matches were back to back and the shear difference in overall rank was surprising especially because the skill gap and communication on my teams compared to the enemy teams were extremely poor. It felt like I was in initiate lobbies.

The next few games are instances where I feel like the matchmaking algorithm actually did a very good job (not just because we won). I have the more competitive option enabled and it felt like I was getting matched with players that actually wanted to be apart of a team and work together. I was consistently getting good matchmaking from 10/15-10/18 and on 10/20 it felt as if something changed drastically for the worse.

Ok I just need to know: What does the matchmaker base the match average on?
Because I have a hard time believing that 5 out of 6 players being way above the match rank with one player being one step below it equates to the match rank seen here?

I mean their team have 4 oracle players, one archon and one emissary.
39-44-36-48-44-45 = 256 / 6 =42

We have 2 oracle, two archon, one emissary and one ritualist?
41-39-43-31-47-46 = 247 / 6 = 41

average = 41,5 / 6 (number or ranks) = 6,91 = Archon 5 - 6

So my team gets a player that is performing 2 solid tiers lower than expected from the game. Considering that a single player feeding will have a MASSIVE impact on the game, this doesn't seem like a very good system.

wait for them to take 3 months to publish a new update for that to only be a font change a new champion that is going to be extremely powerful and unnerfed for the next 4 months that they will take to do the same thing
