Bad Matchmaking Thread

[mrtabby87]

Enemy team seemed far more skilled than us, it literally didn't feel like we were in the same rank. Half our team had 0 kills and most were nearing double digit death counts while the enemy team had three players go entirely deathless.

Matchmaking makes no sense. There’s absolutely no fair pairing—I have significantly higher MMR than the average in this match, yet the game assigns me a completely off-meta character, even though I have more than 8 priority picks.


The system isn’t just creating unbalanced teams in terms of player skill; it’s also forcing imbalanced compositions through poor character distribution. Stop using character-based MMR for matchmaking and switch to account-based MMR. It makes no sense that every time I play certain characters, I end up in completely mismatched, low-quality games.

I was rank E3 and I get placed back to back A4 games where it's impossible to play with the team, game is over at laning phase.

Not the first time I've been put in games that average far below my own rank and are completely one sided.

It was a massive stomp but the enemy team knew that and intentionally delayed the end of game. They knew exactly what they were doing, exactly how they wanted to troll, and it's even evidenced in the game chat.

I don't know how long they would have kept all of us in there, so I decided enough was enough and abandoned the match. This also let my teammates leave without penalty, but I sure as heck received one. Why should I be punished for being trolled? Why is there no surrender button? I didn't leave because of our team's performance, I was avoiding someone trolling me, so why should I bear a penalty? I don't think that's fair. I would like that penalty lifted off my account as soon as possible, it isn't right.

Absolutely dreadful game where my team had no idea how to push an advantage and play properly? And I get a silver who went 2-18?

Like I don't understand this match making, I get put with people who don't know basic concepts like pushing together as a team, or grouping up past 30 minutes. When every game I face a silver, she does extremely well, but the moment I get one on my team, and she is completely new to her champion?

Had got into a match with a four stack party and another random. In short, had one AFK in spawn while the rest of the other lanes have gave up guardians and walkers first 6 minutes into the game.

Whole game where the team doesn't understand macro/lane management in high phantom. yellow lane had 20 deaths and 2 kills by the end of match. once lane phase was over, no one could do anything because of how fed the enemy was.

another great game where geist be doing anything but going in and feed. how does geist do the most damage in the team and do fuck all at the same time? you know he is literally the most useless player in the team when he doesn't push, don't stick, dont cooperate and fight in a team. but what do you care you fucking matchmaking imbalanced abuser.


this is my favourite, we have some top tier apollo and drifter. whenever they are in a team, their braincells are the equivalent of 5 but when they are enemies, they have 200 iq gameplay. how does 2 heroes who are super op in lane be so shit. refresher on drifter give me a fucking tumor because he did fuck all but you don't give 2 flying dicks @Yoshi

 

[flint.w2]

fuck your matchmaking again @Yoshi. let me breakdown this game for you. first 10 minutes, my lane doing okay, mirage lane about a draw, warden and wraith lane, getting fucked like usual. haze + dynamo snowball = fat. come mid game, dynamo ult, haze ult, vyper gets caught, kelvin flying high and im ulti ing, doesn't matter because doorman and apollo silences me. team = loses every single fight. your brain? empty as usual making great matchmakings. 4Ls in a row yet again. won 16 in the last 48 games. Thank you @Yoshi. 33% win rate. i happily lost 32 games. thanks you fat cunt. yall cooking something but it must be dog's shit that you're cooking up
