id 50758528 Worst matchmaking I have ever experienced. We were down 22% at 8 min mark. They had all guardians up after taking last walker. Even the text logs show that both teams were complaining that the game was so unbalanced

Played 5 matches today and every one of them had at least two hackers in them with aimbots. All headshots. Going 15+/0 - doing over 55-60k dmg under 22 minutes. Fucking nuts.

I would really rather just wait longer than end up in matches with skill disparity like this.
Our team:
Duo 1: Me and a friend playing heroes we don't normally play. We're at two ends of the bottom 2 tiers.
Duo 2: 2 Unranked Fresh installs
Duo 3: Someone fairly new and someone reasonably experienced
Rank disparity across the entire team is just across the bottom two tiers, seems kind of reasonable I think?
Enemy team:
Trio 1: 2 experienced players, 1 fresh install
Trio 2: 2 Unranked Fresh Installs, 1 Extremely experienced player, almost 5 tiers above anyone else in the server
This is not a balanced roster.
The first trio averages just above us, the second trio has someone so far above us that it doesn't even matter who he's playing with, he's going to dominate us.
And he did!
I don't think this kind of rank disparity should be possible, I would genuinely prefer to wait longer for a match than commit to 30 minutes of this.

50765068 2 party feeders with negative KDA only Bepop and I was actually playing the game
50762905 This Haze was literally win trading with Holliday idk how low do you have to be to win trade at lowest rank that's not the worst part enemy victor was using pain battery using ult either bug or cheating
50704296 The win trader Lash the same Haze know the game but intentionally grief to trade win games
Players with < 20k damage should be on their own game mode because they are not playing the game if their version of play is missing majority of spells, fleeing fights after telling team to play then even lowest initiate given time can get 20k+ damage but if game time is 30 mins+ then they are clearly not fit for playing the game

Can we, please, fix matchmaking? It's crazy how someone can play only 7 matches of Deadlock and be put straight into Oracle V.

7? most of my teammates have played like 2 and are already in ascendant
why is there not a cap on new players. New players should have to play like 200-300 games all together before they can play with vets so they can learn and actually enjoy the game.

Because of smurf accounts. Instead of punishing smurfs, Valve prefers to let them ruin dozens of matches per account, then they make a new account and go again.

BRO! look at this matchmaking, what the hell are you all doing? 53 vs 15 kills...I mean come on
Match ID: 50778665
Match ID: 50778665
I'm in oracle half of my teammates said that it was their first time playing their heroes and that they were ranked archon. I don't understand how this was even a fair matchup, our team got 3 kills total and was over 60k souls behind in the end at around 25 minutes. The matchmaking or ranked system needs to be fixed. My last 10ish games have been similar to this as well, where it wasn't necessarily a stomp, but I get put into emissary games as an oracle with my top 5 most played heroes. It just doesn't make sense.

clear example of how smurfs ruin this game, if even a single of those uninitiated ranks is a smurf, its over, game can be thrown in the bin, everyone can go afk while the fat kid with invincibility shield can shoot his infinite bullets of instant death until he gets bored. Sandbox smells of pee and cat shit.
Smurfing == cheating,
In some cases its even worse than that because cheaters will play at higher ranks and possibly against other cheaters, and sometimes cheaters can be punished hard by skilled players.
Meanwhile even a non cheating smurf will RUIN the game for 11 other players.
EVERY
SINGLE
DAY
majority of my games has a smurf in them. I cant remember a day of just having some won or lost games of deadlock, no, its always some duo with a throwaway smurf in a party wreaking havoc on the matchmaker. Fucking wardens with 10 games total (if one can believe tracklock) going 20/0 like a train with no brakes. In case it wasnt clear, thats not fun and I play games to have fun.
I hope you are doing some data magic valve, I hope the "mains" of those who consistently party up with banned/smurfed accounts also get a ban.

I'm 1500hours in and maximum I reached is Emissary which didn't lasted for long when latest patch arrived because I kept having teammates that were playing the game for the first time. I'm stuck in low elo forever. Ranking up is a BIG FAT JOKE.
