Bad Matchmaking Thread

Amazing how they "fixed" long queue times by just pairing us up with brand new players. This game is bleeding players so badly they can't keep people on board. Travesty.

2-7 Apollo
2-9 Wraith
2-11 Sinclair
1-5 Lash

Enemy literally did mid boss at 22 minute, UNHEARD OF in this ELO
Entire enemy team had kill streak icons and 0 pings
0 communication until game is over then everyone starting pulling up their mics to flame each other

Lost a rank btw
Totally great matchmaking
 
The victor was just throwing the whole game and drifter and paige are defending him. Pretty sure they're win trading look at the account name. 72966979

They're on the fast track to killing this game before release, this is the #13,098th post in this thread, and they've progressively made the matchmaking worse over time. Not to mention several cheaters, whom I've not seen once activate their bullshit PR "frog" system (including a haze that was 40+ / 0, and had 78K souls at 30 minutes).

I genuinely love when the first game of the morning, after a 10 minute queue time, is against a blatant smurf with only 2 matches on record (both wins by a landslide btw)

I mean at this point, are the devs even doing anything to improve matchmaking?? Or are we seriously just sitting around making changes to characters? I can respect the idea that balancing the game is a key part of the focus, but for gods sake - a game's matchmaking is as equally important in enjoyability as the balance of the game itself.

Valve simply doesn't care. No Valve game is moderated. They can afford to moderate and ban obvious cheaters and smurfs but they don't because simply don't care.

Unfortunately Deadlock will be the same and be an absolute shitfest of cheaters and smurfs.

I am sure they will look at abysmal dogshit matchmaking post #13.102, my team doesnt even know what green items are

Haze even asked what rank this was because they didn't think they should be in it. People were feeding pretty well from minute 1 in lane, nobody could manage lanes or even know to be playing near lane to help people, I felt like I was the only oracle person in the lobby.

Really be struggling with these teammates lately that have no game awareness at all and somehow matchmaking says theses are oracle lobbies.. I am hard stuck oracle right now because there seems to always be 2 people on my team that simply do not know any micro or macro nor will they buy any counter items or engage in any team play. I cannot teach these people the game, mid game valve, please fix the ranks and shove people with 600+ hours into the top percentile.
