Bad Matchmaking Thread

[luke.iswim]

One team knows how to play the other doesn't. Please reinstate that new players need to play 5 bot matches before they can queue for ranked, or remove the idea of ranked the mm for it clearly doesn't know what to do with all these players who don't have a foothold on the mechanics. There are now enough players to bring back casual queue!

Mathcmaking still trash

When matchmaking is gonna be added?

 

[Fanta]

I am an archon 5 player and i just played a game where 3 players on my team were new players or very low rank, the paradox on this game didnt even know their abilities could be upgraded, it was their first ever game, mina and lash were also lower rank than expected. This is because they were running a 4-stack party with the graves player. This is not fair i should never be matched with 3 players that should be innitiate 1, no matter if highest level party member is my same rank. The game was a complete 3 v 6.

Oracle 2 vs Oracle 3, somehow i don't believe that. Look at stats. Also please balance this game. The last 6 months have been absolute hell and now with rem (more health and stam than mina btw) and graves (straight broken) the game is feeling even more stale. Idk.

Arcanist: 3 team bunch of bs

This Seven is 100% bot never responded to anything
Just fed entire game and lane died soo many times cuz of this bot only auto farming
This bot never used a single ult

No wonder deadlock smurfing and account selling industry is already starting with these sort of matchmaking and teammates

the matchmaking is so bad in asia that everytime i play a normal game mode i get people like this. How is he allowed to play? Why is the matchmaking keeps queuing people like this? WHY is it always keep making me queue under oracle lobbies...

nice updates like this are offset by the simplest solvable problems. this vyper has less than 350 games played and has played on and off since dec 2024 with a 2 year old steam account with 4 games owned.
so unless this guys has thousands of hours on those 3 other games, its pretty clear its a smurf on top of it taking nearly 17 minutes until anyone else but me had purchased disarming hex or metal skin. all thats gotta be done is a check is added where if their steam account is less than 5 years old with less than 25 games owned, they arent allowed into and are kicked out of the playtest. thatd cut right through the cheating/smurfing issue instantly

I refuse to believe that we are the same rank, how in the world do Mina and McGinnis lose to gun Paige and gun Graves in lane is beyond me

Look at the kill count. 16-55. They delayed winning the match several times, because it was fun for them to stomp us in the jungle while we tried to catch up. Urn didnt help, all they had to do was wait at the drop off. Graves was overtuned as hell. I know we likely wont get the balance patch until after all the heroes are released, but you gotta drop something for the matchmaking experience. Graves didn't win them the game by her self.

Graves and Infernus were put into a lane against Vindicta and Shiv. Graves said that this was possibly their 4th ever game, not having played since the original alpha launch. Bebop also seemed to have spent a lot of time looking clueless, for what it's worth.

I have almost 900 hours of gaming. Since mid-December last year I've been having more and more rookie teammates. I have almost 1000 matches and noob have 5-10 matches this is no such thing as horrivel matchmaking. I am brazillian but this matchmaking is a absolute trash

Either Graves is truly busted or my teammates were so bad they fed Graves a 28k soul advantage. Regardless something was very wrong with this match.

Man, this is incredible. In my last game I played, I didn't have one, there were three newcomers to the game or who had recently returned. How are they in my queue? surprising vei.

What is this balance???

I have such games so often where either we completely steamroll them or the opposite. Fix your matchmaking ASAP. It's really unmotivating to play when it's not even close to being balanced....

watch this.

I'm out of words. all of this guys started this game like an hour ago. I have more than 200 hours.
Haze was actually intentionally staying afk lol.

 

[TheMrKaramel18]

Peige got 90 k souls and mirage - 82. How match we got? Yeah we got more souls but they win because 2 smurf in opponent team, what a shit matchmaking

Ive looked at profile all players in this game anbd you know what? Peige and Mirage got more then 50% winrate, and what we got? People who got more or 50% loses and wins. So we got this teammate because we got 1 win, but before it was like 3-4 loses????? are you okay????

Match 53511122

An Ascendant lobby in which Graves and Viscous duo proceed to not purchase ONE green item until 16 minutes into the game.

The duo goes 0-10 in lane which takes the game from normal to totally out of hand.

Neither player even had chip damage on an objective for an entire 22 minute round.

Ascendant lobby my ass.
