Bad Matchmaking Thread

58931148

Please tell me what is fun about playing with 5 people who have no idea what they are doing. Not a single person going positive across an entire match, all the while having to listen to some dipshit make the worst calls over mic and get mad that we aren't doing them, despite being 0 kills and adding nothing to the game.

I am double down arrow on Apollo just trying to have fun learning the new hero and I keep getting incredibly unfair and lopsided games (either winning or losing). I have 1 win 5 loss on this character and none of those games has felt like an actual match, just a slaughterfest for one team where they have triple the kills and a 30k+ networth lead all game.

Matchmaking has never been perfect, but ever since the adjustments to ranks across the board and whatever other changes were made to the matchmaker in the past 2 weeks, it has been beyond unbearable. I don't understand how I'm supposed to play the game and have fun when maybe 1 in every 10 games in a decent match and the other 9 are just determined by this horrible matchmaker.

match 1 ID: 58963031
match 2 ID: 58973477

Without going into much detail, just by looking at the profiles of the accounts in my second game I can see that everyone but mina and me has a 40%wr in the past 10 games and on average a lower rank than the enemy team who all have 60-80% wr's over the past 10 games.

Going further through some of these profiles a few of them somehow magically jumped from ascendant lobbies to eternus 5 lobbies in an afternoon from the last rank "adjustments" ???

It's getting to the point where I can know who is going to win and who is going to get stomped in the majority of matches as soon as I load in, with pretty good accuracy, just based off of names and hero drafts.

I have piles upon piles of unbalanced matches from the past 2 weeks if more match ID's are needed. The game seriously feels like it's in an unplayable state right now and I hate that because it and the new characters are so fun. Please look into it...

Once again, Valve is creating unbalanced compositions with OP heroes, but in the next update they will increase the weapon cadence or something like that without really solving the actual problem.

I understand that it is a closed beta, but I still don't understand the urge to add more and more problems, more heroes, more item without solving the existing ones first.
 
Yoshi, do something about this matchmaking please. I am SEVERELY tired of playing with people who just don't give a shit about this game. Lock the extra competitive lobbies to a rank, time played, anything. Why is there people in emissary 3 lobbies who don't even know how to pilot their champs? Who's game knowledge literally extends to "shoot my gun"?

It is EXHAUSTING, I love your game. I will continue to play this game for a very long time, conditional to this problem being solved. I don't want to have to be positioned as the hard carry in every, single, fucking match. Sometimes, I just want to play with a team that can cohesively operate, and don't require my hand up their ass the entire 50 minutes because they can't even perform the most basic tenants of a MOBA game.
 
Why do you people put all the new players on one fucking side? Like how hard is it to have the match making put half the fucking new players on one side and the other on the other side. Nope you idiots decide to put all new players on one side and put them against ppl with 500+ matches. This is fucking pathetic. great match making. idiots.

Games like these make me not want to que up anymore. Ever since Apollo came out, about 70% of my games feel like this now. At least 2-3 people on my team are legitimately clueless every single game. It's literally a battle of who has less feeders.

My lane went fine, the others fed like crazy and we stood no chance after that; one lane literally ended 0/8/0 and 0/9/0. Please do something about matchmaking
 
Hello,
59013559 - cheater who has 100% winrate on every hitscan and 1 loss on lash :) and mvp every game topping all charts
matchmaking is criminal, pure dogshit either you have new players who run in a straight line, or a stack of smurfs
