Bad Matchmaking Thread

MATCH ID: 59846521

Entire enemy team, EVERY SINGE PERSON had 0 deaths for ~30 minutes.(Screenshot for reference)
And on the screenshot you can see that they ended up with, after one fight on our base:
4/1/14
8/1/8
9/1/11
17/1/16
7/1/8
2/1/15
All our lanes destroyed, all our base destroyed.
Yet we still suffered through another ~5-10 minutes if I remember correctly.

This was literal torture, for 30 minutes not getting even a single kill on my entire team.
And then after 1 successful defense still loosing (of course).

Game is becoming a joke at the moment:

- Macro knowledge does not exist, and wider player base has no concept of tempo. We can be ahead by 40-50k souls, be at T3 guardians, and they will still be farming T1 and T2 camps with enemies down.
- People trying to trade like the game is a hero shooter, no other tactic other than deathballing straight into the enemy team and then pulling all the way back to base.
- No use of map, I could be getting 2 v 1'd right next to a teammate, and they'll just keep farming their T1 camp.

It's a fucking joke man - this game was in a really good spot a month or two ago, and the community seemed to be moving forwards positively, but the last 2 weeks have been miserable and have me seriously considering whether I want to invest my time into deadlock.

You need to fix matchmaking, without question. But you also need to do something about the players coming into this game and trying to turn it into something it is not. It's not fucking overwatch, it's not fucking marvel rivals, it is a MOBA. It is played like a MOBA.
 
Had some really inconsistent skills across teams in several of my recent Phantom games. It often feels like more of a coinflip of which team gets the 0/10 laners vs actual skill.

These types of one sided stomp games wouldn't hurt so much if there was a surrender/forfeit option. But instead you have to suffer through what is obviously inevitable.

game literally unwinnable with haze and apollo feeding the whole game. please fix the matchmaking there are obvious lower skilled players in this archon/emissary lobby 60586136
 
60594208 just look at the numbers, how tf do you mismatch ppl so badly. All that while drifter is basically a prerequisite to win in those dogshit pubs.
edit - tracklock.gg/players/846016111 ; In every single game this creature plays he has the worst score on the team. Why can't you just demote them? They are clearly not comfortable on this rank.

The match making is the single worst thing about Deadlock and has been for a long time.
Legitimately if there's one thing that ends up killing the game I really do think it's going to be the matchmaking. They really need to make it a high priority more than they already are or at least try and hire people that are built specifically to make it great. I've already seen so many people quit the game because of the matchmaker itself being terrible and it's sad to see.
