Bad Matchmaking Thread

[Sun1111]

lmao... matchmaking is just comical at this point.. Eternus 6 player and ascendant against emissaries. bro worst matchmaking in any game i have ever played. seriously.

All the new and returning players are going to leave the week after the last new heroes drops too. Probably end up with less players than before the patch. Sad state. No amount of hype will save this game after launch with this MM. It will be less than 40k players after a month.

Immense disparity in kills between teams. Both infernus and bebop were new. Regular queue DL feels awful. I only have fun playing street brawl, which is sad to say because DL could be the best game. Please address this soon.

17 to 58 kills. If I had to guess at least two people on the other team were smurfs while my team clearly didn't understand that farming was a thing. Almost 70k souls down.

This was a lot of fun, Valve. I sure do love completely unwinnable games.

Can't imagine this was fun at all for the other team. Less than 30 minutes. 60K soul difference. They didn't kill a single walker. Absolute steamroll.

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

Valve literally do not care about cheaters. They don't moderate their games. Accounts are free. Expect cheaters and smurfs in every match.

played early launch day timeish for 30 hours, spammed 1 character i liked to 70%+ winrate

Then did not play at all until old gods patch and heroes update. I don't think I've decayed to the correct rank; had me starting back in phantom games (now oracle). Im struggling badly and many players are tilted with my performance despite best efforts.

We got two players here that I suspect are brand new on our side. Lash admitted to only having 9 hours and watching what Vic did I don't think he had many either.

11/50, winning team had a soul lead the entire game by 10s of thousands.

Waste of a priority token.

If you can, throw a report at the Abrams in this game. Spamming chat and throwing on purpose.

back to back terrible games. This time they were 50 kills up and 80k soul lead, at one point almost 100k.

Is something broken? Had an ok lane and good start both times, but things get out of hand quickly, no map control, no souls, always getting deathballed.

Lag was HORRENDOUS. Freezing, chat wasn't being displayed. Please look into where I was connected, because this game was UNPLAYABLE. I caught a temp ban for quitting out early, and you know what? It was worth it not to have to suffer through that dogshit lag. This kind of matchmaking is how games die.

53743915 - lopsided matchmaking - wraith and others dont know how to play yet are in archon?

 

[eazyacgames123]

I'm from emissary rank and I always got games like this that I had to rank down to arcanist. Why do I always queued up with at least 1 to 3 low skill players in the game. Here on my stats I literally have 6 kills and none from them LET ALONE THEIR ASSIST WERE NOT HALF OF MY KILLS.

The last twenty matchmaking on my account was always like this. Fix the matchmaking system. This is so frustrating.

 

[jkonttilaa2]

Another 2 matches where i were put with total bots/newbies on the same team.

53773438 -I played Paradox. Only one with Positive KD on the entire team. Teammates were all total bots/new players.

53766491 -I played Greaves. Got baited by my own teammates and were only one on the team playing objective.


I have over 1000hours in-game,. Dont put me in team with total bots/new players!!!!
My rank dropped from PHANTOM to ARCHON very quickly when my teammates were bad. Often players who were playing their first or second game. Rank has lost its meaning completely. No matter how well I play, winning is often impossible when teammates 1-3 players feed the enemy and play their first games. I have 1000 hours in the game. 3 different steam users. All users have been high level PHANTOM. But when you start playing Random lobbies, rank drops very quickly because of this shockingly bad matchmaking.

It makes no sense to put an experienced player with 1000 hours in the same team with first-timers.. What on earth is the developer thinking? Fix this incredibly poor matchmaking. The game is completely unplayable right now.

This is a real problem and the developer doesn't seem to care one bit about fixing it. I keep losing when my teammates are new players or playing their first games without any idea how to play the game. It's incomprehensible that I, who was previously at Phantom level and this user has about 1000 hours of play, am being put on the same team as first-timers. It's impossible to win with bots like this on the same team. My rank has dropped to Arcanist level really quickly because of this unbearably bad matchmaking.

 

[jkonttilaa2]

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. View attachment 79492

Matchmaking makes ZERO SENSE.. I were Phantom and rank dropped to Archon really fast because of this dogshit matchmaking. Its literally putting me in team with first-timers who has no clue how to play the game. It makes no sense to put player with over 1000hours in-game in team with players under 100 hours in.. Devs are retarded to not fix this issue.

The developers are apparently not interested in fixing matchmaking at all. This entire thread was made here on the forums just to stop people from posting about the terrible matchmaking all the time. The developers don't read these posts. The matchmaking is really terrible and puts experienced players on a team with new players, forcing the experienced players to lose. This makes no sense and ruins the entire gameplay experience. Playing the game is currently unenjoyable because of this unbearably terrible matchmaking.
