playing on archon/oracle lobby recently and i never seen haze playing literally like bot. going to team fights with half% hp. can't even farm correctly, only 14k player damage and can't even last a team fight or a pick off. one person really making the game unwinnable.
fix matchmaking and rank distribution pls. hard to get out of archon with these kind of players.

67415844 just a hopeless fucking stomp the whole way through and you couldn't even push a lane or jungle without the entire enemy team magically appearing. The McGinnis may have been speedhacking from time to time too but maybe she's just got movement for a player way above this supposed rank to get between lanes so quickly.
God McGinnis is such a horrible design, if you just ripped her from the game entirely we'd all be better for it.

I'm pretty sure no matter what you do to the matchmaking system, it wont matter as long as the MMR in this game remains vastly inaccurate. The previous rank "adjustments" to account for new players where for some reason it adjusted people to shoot up entire ranks where they don't belong has only exasperated the problem.
Also, the latest update to MM that happened last night somehow made it even worse than before. Every single game without fail a one-sided stomp, win or lose. Games ending in 27~ish minutes, always a 50k+ soul lead, always multiple people vastly underperforming on one team, never a close game.
I've also had situations where I see I'm queueing at the same time as multiple people on my friends list who are around my rank and instead of putting us together in the same lobby, it splits all of us up into different lower-elo lobbies (even though we all have different hero pools)
I could go on and on with these screenshots, not a single game today has felt fair or fun, win or lose. I can count on two hands the amount of "close, quality games" that I've had in the past two months.
As soon as I join a lobby I can basically predict who will win with great accuracy just by seeing the players names on each team and the drafts.
At this point, how is it possible to queue up and have fun in the game? Genuine question. I don't really smurf, but the matchmaker for the past 2months has really made me understand why people do and many of my friends have expressed the same sentiment.
Even new players are complaining about the matchmaking and I'm afraid of getting my friends into this game because I know they will not have a good time for their first ~50 something games until the stomps stop, please do something.

Playing against Kelvin and Ivy on the opponents team is very unfun. Two two stacked together healed so
much.
Mo was ok but didnt't do that much. Very unbalanced lobbies.
Queue also took almost 16 minutes so that's probably why the match kinda unbalanced.

Match 67459780
I have a Ritualist average team while I'm in low Eternus vs an Eternus 1 Paradox and Rem with all other players being high Phantom/Low Ascendant.
This is on a Saturday night in NA. There is no possible way the player pool is this low to create such dogshit matchmaking.

Wraith (Meaowey) is griefing the Archmother by proxying waves in the early game and avoiding team fights. This is in Eternus 6 matchmaking, and the player is on an Alt. Account after being banned for repeat behavior. The Wraith, who goes by Katkooten on Twitch, repeatedly griefs high elo games and plays to lose. Please take action against their account and save eternus matchmaking.

So I recently got into Oracle, and right as I get into Oracle, all my matches turn sour until I'm back down into Archon VI.
And these guys on my team, I swear they do not belong in Oracle. Matchmaking and skill rating is 100% scuffed. They dive into 1v6 fights, trickle into lost team fights, overextend consistently, etc. etc.
They go 3 - 12 in 15-20 minutes of the match...
Honestly I hope Deadlock does a skill rating reset on its release, some of these guys really don't belong in the ranks that they've been placed...

Can we do something about the High ELO NA player, griefer, streamer by the name of KatKooten

- In this match, KatKooten (Wraith) by the name of Meaowey kills the midboss for the enemy team while we were trying to end the game; intentionally leaves the pit without punching any crystals, the enemy team came a minute later to get all three.
- On another occasion we were trying to end the game as 5, he was the only one in our base to defend downed patron, he was intentionally letting the enemy troopers live and hit our downed patron when he was under no threat.
- Last thing i noticed without watching the replay, is that he held the golden goose egg for 30 minutes and generally did not participate in the game at all except for farming our jungle and donating unsecured souls.
Conclusion: I would loveeee to see KatKooten permanently banned from ever playing Deadlock again, hopefully with some means of HWID or something of this nature so that he can not just create a new account as he has in the past when he gets low priority for griefing. I genuinely do not understand what would drive a human to do something like this, our entire team was trying our best to be kind to him, and encourage, even plead for him to try to win the game but to no avail.
Other players in this lobby that can back up my claim and hopefully support my cause are: Lonaw, FSnakes, tanner, danjo, and Shieere.

Valve does not moderate their games. Griefers, smurfs, cheaters, account buyers/sellers, and so on are all allowed by Valves inaction. Every Valve game is like this.
There's a small chance he will get banned by automatic systems if enough people report him, but don't get your hopes up.

can this matchmaking get any worse than this? you put me in an emissary lobby where i always play archon to oracle for the last 10 games and both haze and seven who are supposed to be hyper carries feed all the time and cant even farm correctly nor able to push.
all teammates are relatively lower skill than what their rank is today please fix the rank and matchmaking. please.

My first game being ranked ascendant and I get into a 20 minute game where the seven was calling people the n-word and other slurs. I guess there was some beef from his previous game that I wasn't in, but he throws out some slurs and sits afk in spawn for the rest of the game. I finally ranked up and this is the first experience that I had. Awesome.
