Bad Matchmaking Thread

Lately I've been facing a huge issue that every time I reach to Phantom 2 rank, matchmaker puts me in lobbies with people that are either from higher ranks or smurfing. For 5 days straight, I've been stress testing that to the point where I simply can predict which match will be lost and which will be won, simply by the fact that when I am getting Phantom 2 - I am losing, Phantom 1 - I am winning.

How I see it that matchmaker somehow thinks I would be able to get out of Phantom 2 to higher rank by overcoming imbalanced games, but it's impossible, when it is balancing people in my team that are playing way below my current rank and skill of smurfs against me.

Also when I am on a lose streak I am not losing my rank below Phantom 1, so I think something feels rigged.

Below are all examples of lost games, it is pretty easy to identify who is smurfing by the amount of their games and winrates:

78710089
78693637

78506694

Entire team was given spirit characters, making counterplay incredibly easy, and no carries or late game scalers whatsoever, meaning the game would be literally impossible to win for us. Meanwhile, the enemy team were given 2 carries and 1 late game scaler who snowballed to lane feeders.

Venator was definitely not belonging in this ELO + greifing by leaving the game when it was still winnable. Just 30 minutes wasted, we would have won if they had stayed and actually performed well.

No clue why I, as Eternus 4, get put in an Ascendant 6 lobby. To my understanding I can't even queue up with Ascendant players after I hit E4 due to large skill discrepancy. So felt a bit unfair.
