Bad Matchmaking Thread

Match id: 53491785

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....
 
for the LOVE OF GOD!

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.
 
My first ever game on the new hero. Two brand new players on my team with less that half a page of games played. No-one on the enemy team was new and had many pages of games. We got completely rolled. I know time =/= skill but it's just extremely frustrating to play matches like this because they feel like I had basically no chance of winning unless I somehow had the game of my life (on my first game on a new hero).

Better off buying accounts at this point

Graves sold half their item
I have Graves on highest token 0 games out of 10 games even with priority f*king lies what chance sounds like account dependent
Warden was bot at my lane hence my high death
0 response in game

Why are these always these bots afk griefers in these games?

A good many of our games are like the above. I am archon and he is ritualist or the rank below that. It seems like one or both of us is in too high of a rank. We rarely win a lane and his win rate over the last month is in the low 40% range. I understand ranking are pushing a 50/50 win rate, but were not getting matches that seem remotely winnable most of the time.

Its usually one or two people on the opposing team that seem drastically better then everyone else in the match. We can accept losing, but when the majority of our games are 1-2 enemy players having +50%-+75% soul advantage over our team with 15+ kills is not fun.
 
View attachment 79157Why is matchmaking so dog shit? Why would I want to play in a game with 4-5 bots vs a competent team?

Match 53080397
This looks just like my matches when i duo with my lesser rank friend. Expect the enemy team would have one guy double everyones worth and have 15+ kills. Its always this games where the overall rank on your team is supposedly higher, yet they beat the hell out of you anyway.

Party on amber had 2 eternus / high ascendant level players, but they abuse rank decay and party trio queue to get into lower rank games.
 
CAN EVERYONE WHO READ THIS LIKE AND MAKE YOSHI SEE, CHEATER CAUGHT BLANTANTLY.
hey @Yoshi i said on wednesday 2am that i am going on holiday so i wont be messaging in this forum. I came back today and guess what. 2 Cheaters in the enemy team. Amazing, Wonderful, Spectacular. My team paused the first second to say the 2 enemies are cheating. I tested it out. Well i got 2 clips for you if you're gonna do anything about it with your team but you probably won't.

For context, I purposely went invi to check his aim. Notice how he kept looking at my direction? What topped it off was he jump dash accurately and shot first to reveal myself. HE JUMPED AROUND THE CORNER TO THE RIGHT DIRECTION WHERE I WAS INVI AND IMMEDIATELY SHOT ME. what fucking bullshit hack is this that you're not taking notice?

PART 2 CHEATER. CAN EVERYONE WHO READ THIS LIKE AND MAKE SURE YOSHI AND HIS TAKE ACTUALLY BAN THESE GUYS?

Hey @Yoshi 2 cheaters in the same game and i found another one for you. You won't believe me but ht created a new account and has never lost one game and his games never went past 30 minutes. But here is a short clip to highlight his AUTO PARRY paradox's skill and slowing hex before he press in such a short span and the HEADSHOT LOCK he got on Paradox and Vindicta.

This may be the worst case I have seen of the matchmaker just straight up not working, the graves on my team has legit A SINGLE GAME and she got put in a mid oracle lobby, obviously she had no clue how to play, I think the matchmaker may ACTUALLY be a bit broken.

Yamato either severely misplaced or just simply inting by running in to die all the time. Unpleasant with so many new/ returning players who get put in same lobbies when it shouldn't be like that.
