From statlocker, enemy team had archons, we had alchemists.

I am in oracle? Why am I being put in an Emmisary game? MM has been around for so long how is it this hard to figure out?

Hey have you ever considered not letting hypercarries like haze singlehandedly carry a game they didn't deserve to win? That'd be pretty cool. You should consider doing that instead of trying to do your stupid medusa/spectre meta from Dota that everyone hates

A complete waste of 28 minutes. I had to drag around a 3 stack that average 3 ranks below Phantom where I am. Is it reasonable to have to hard carry over half of the team?

this is just one stupid example past few days people have been playing so stupidly our haze just threw the free win for no reason other than trolling

@Yoshi @Valve @GregC @OllyM. Bad matchmaking and the aimbot Ivy/drawing out the game didn't help the experience. The lower posts by me isn't the matches being more balanced by my interest in the game fading. 48783872

These five things are trash.

Why do we have Phantoms laning against Arcanists right now?

Is the algorithm confused by the declining playerbase or something to the point of filling in spots with gaps this huge?

Won this game but I still want to post it here because our Doorman went 3/22, Mirage 1/19! Doorman was moving around the map not even farming in the lanes and ganking meanwhile Mirage kept picking impossible fights. Doorman proceeds to ask in chat how to switch characters. @Yoshi Do you not have separate queues for new people? Why does this keep happening?

Another fucking insane match where nobody on our team was performing well (incl. me because there was constantly someone on my face) and it ended up with the enemy team being 80k (!!!!) ahead of us, with a scoreline of 14 to 41 kills. Nobody used voice comms but me and it genuinely felt hopeless already at 10 min mark where they just kept steamrolling and moving in a deathball permanently, I probably was had teammates leave me to die more times than I could count when they had all the curses, hexes or just slammed my face in when they saw me and I couldn't do anything to it - even when trying to itemize against it.

Genuinely, I hate this meta, and I hate playing this game alone even more because it just feels like every win us undeserved because it's a full on stomp from our side, and every loss is a full-on stomp from their side. It's been weeks since I had a proper, even, truly neutral match where it felt like it could go either way until the end. It fucking sucks and it's making me beyond miserable since I love the game but this matchmaking is horrendous.

Was matched in blue with people apparently much better then me and my partner because we lost the walker even before the midboss spawned. I've had many matches like this that I just don't post because it's just normal. I want to like this game, because when I have a good match, it's really fun. Even so, after so much time, most matches I play are simply not fun. Like none of us really even had a chance to play the fucking game because we would just get one shotted if someone found us farming.

When matches have a good balance of people, the game is amazing. But when teams are as fucking unbalanced as this match was, it's absolutely awful.

I understand this game is in development but holy hell please do better with the matchmaking, it fucking sucks.

Same thing again with this match. It feels like the more I play, the worse matchmaking gets. Maybe y'all should hire someone that actually knows how to work with statistics and fully understands what Elo is because from my entirely unprofessional perspective, no one at Valve does.

Upon loading into a match, the game stated that it would not impose a leaver penalty but would still count as a loss. Other oddities include it being a full rank division below my normal rank.

48828076 I don't know if this one was aparty queue but considering we had half a team and we were up against *that*, I'm pretty confident the infernus was party queued with someone.
