Bad Matchmaking Thread

[Sun1111]

Every few weeks ill come back and play an actual MM game and im instantly reminding how its the worst matchmaking in any game i have ever played and it has to be on purpose because theres no way it can be this bad lol. Calico was 9-0 after lane?

my advice to everyone is just stop playing matchmaking untill they fix it.

Just play streetbrawl its so much easier on the soul then to have to deal with that bullshit that they seem not to care about at all.

Not sure how the matchmaker thought this would ever be an even match. 3 solo eternus players versus a single eternus player with a match average of Eternus IV vs Ascendant 2.

Surely the matchmaker had a chance to put even amounts of eternus players on both teams.

The last three games I've played have put me in lobbies a full rank below me. Codes are:

-663535566
-66746826
-66759338

I was Ascendant 1 in the first game, Phantom 6 in the other two.

It looks like the game tried to make a fair MM, but the smurf ruined it. Take a look on Drifter

In this case the matchmaking was purely comp diff. One team had a full set of characters who ALL had a form or multiple forms of hard CC vs a team with absolutely no CC. Incredibly unbalanced. 66786211

Why the hell am I Emissary/Ritualist when I'm still new and learning the game?

I am ruining games for my teammates because I am still new and trying heroes/builds for the first time. The experience levels my teammates expect of me is extremely high and the individual skill levels of people in these ranks is completely random with no consistency whatsoever. There is no shot this is the intended effect of the skill rating system because it may as well not exist at all.

Anytime I happen to win because a smurf on my team stomps I get a huge boost in rating, but I don't go down in rating anywhere near as fast when I frequently lose. I keep climbing even though I'm terrible. Losing matches barely loses any rating but wins are massive jumps. WHY??

PLEASE fix the system so we can play against people of similar skill and experience!

Warden is a smurf - https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198818132910
Victor is a smurf - https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198030231524

Can we get an update on matchmaking? It is really bad these last couple of days.

THIS! back around the time OGNB dropped I was Seeker rank. fast forward to now, and while I am better than I was before, the constant rank changes bumped me all the way to Ritualist. Now especially with matchmaking where I can get an Oracle Abrams soloing our entire team, it’s really hard to commit up to an hour of my time to a single match where I’m likely to end up feeling miserable at the end of it.
