Bad Matchmaking Thread

Use this thread to share matchids for games that you think the matchmaker did a bad job at. If you can explain what you felt was a problem in it that would be helpful as well.

Do not post matchids for games that were within the past 24 hours from this post. Games older than that are fine and games going forward are fine.

Thanks for the help

Phantom 6 account in an Emissary lobby, 3 new players in my team (according to them) and match was found in less than a minute.
 
I have lost 6/7 games today and every game i have preformed well above my teams average. Even if i was the worst player on the team i should statistically win 50% of my games. I have been cursed with this plague of useless teamates for the last week and my winrate is falling like an anvil.

Ill put some examples of this below but can we please fix this matchmaking hell.

For referance i am currently phantom 3 and have been in the leaderboard for just about every character ive played. Feels like someone with a vendeta against me is specifically picking out my teamates.

I hope someone from the dev team reads this and can help me out.
Cheers
even games i win lane i still lose and end up with awful stats because i play support and my teammates are reheated tapioca.
 
57206983 - My team mates where MILES away in skill level from me and enemy team. I have no idea how this was average Phantom IV since that was my current rank so someone had to be higher. Looking at statlocker I can't find anyone higher than me (shocker).
 
Match ID 57219599

There was a guy on my team that had 40 hours. At this stage of the game this shouldn't be a thing.
You can go to any other dev team at valve and ask how to fix this it's killing the fun of the game.
This doesn't happen in CS or Dota. So why is it happening here and I'm not even going to bother with the smurfs cause its clear your not bothered with fixing it.

Average rank is Ritualist V, but why does nobody know how to play? I climbed from Emissary II to Ritualist V, yet I still get teammates who can’t even laning or understand matchups. This matchmaking makes no sense.

Match felt completely unbalanced skill-wisely. Enemies were taking advantage of being simply better than our team. Souls were pretty much similar in the first few minutes, but enemy team's map rotation and coordination led to a complete steamroll.

can you just halt invites until the situation improves? That way people's skill can properly acclimate and eventually I won't have games where one lane clearly doesn't know how to play and costs us everything?

These MMR boost that have been happening are easily one of the worst things to happen to the match quality of the game. Please stop doing them.

my whole experience after the supposed rank update has been horrible.
i have a 50/50 chance of either playing against people that dont know what they are doing and having people in my team that dont know what they are doing.
match ids:
56867424 - 38 kills on drifter, i assume vs people that dont really know what they are doing
56937252 - matched with people that dont know what they are doing
56971187 - again matched with people that dont really know what they are doing
56993072 - now im vs people that dont know what they are doing, we stomp them
57288347 - same as above, stomping people that arent really my elo
57305458 - get matched with someone who has never played lash before
 
guys, I don't know what you did but you screwed up, the game feels horrible now, the skill difference is enormous, before this the game felt unbalanced in the composition of the teams but balanced in skill, now it just feels terrible, lobbies are a mix of people who know how to play and people who don't know even the most basic things I don't know how you're going to fix this but it makes you want to stop playing for a while until it's magically fixed
