Bad Matchmaking Thread

Match ID: 21090154

Nothing I could do here. I played correctly, our team's souls weren't even THAT far behind our opponents. Yet it was a no-contest. My team couldn't handle our opponent. It was a skill issue plain and simple.
 
I love picking new characters and losing instantly. So fun.

21100891 - My lane partner is clueless. Up against people who can actually last hit and deny (I still out cs'd them, as usual) and our haze left Seven to farm the entire lane by himself, and was entirely fucking useless. What kind of haze can't even contribute with 4?

20813415 - Everyone was lost. I went 14-0 and was watching TV at the same time.

20817659 - Again, everyone was lost. 24-2, lightyears ahead of everyones farm and actually keeping lanes in check. I only died because I bought soul rebirth.................................................................................

Stop putting me with these people. This is fucking beyond insulting, and quite frankly demotivating. Whatever your babysitter or bigbrother algorithm is, toss it. This is complete trash for solo queuers who can chew their own cereal.

I think I'll be done for a while until this is ironed out. It may never be, though. Considering the state of matchmakers in every other game, including valves. People like me will probably still be labelled babysitter.
 
Just to make it easier for me I will update this reply once in a while, also to prevent spam.

1. 21104832 - The match was way too one sided. After 15 minutes, we didn't even get close to the fourth enemy guardian while they were pushing base. Their overall mechanical skill level was way too high for us.

don't need an explanation

I should just stream this game live to this fucking forum at this point
 
Having anything else be tracked outside of win/lose can be exploited and is a bad metric.

This is not a team deathmatch game and kills dont matter, only things that matters is killing their patron.

This would only incentivize people to statpad and not play as a team.
However, the current matchmaking system makes it so that solo players are often powerless when it comes to the outcome of the game. I feel that I perform well in every match, but sometimes I still end up with a losing streak. After a losing streak, I'm matched with lower-skilled opponents, which allows me to dominate the laning phase easily and end the game with a huge advantage. In these games, my stats are usually something like 20-0. Most of my matches now are either one-sided stomps or being stomped. I believe that only by matching players with similar MMR and in-game performance can we have high-quality games.

I have 278 matches, and I make an average of 10-15 kills each match and at the same time have a weak percentage of wins (Win Rate) Almost every game I get thrown by a weak team that is several times weaker than me in terms of understanding the game, etc.
example: screenshot below, my team and I played with all our might and still couldn't win, this happens almost every game. Whatever I do, I will not be able to influence the victory in the game.

oh, hey look!

Another 0-15 player is on my team. I dominate my lane, and am surrounded by timmy and kyles.

This is fucking terrible.

You guys 110% stole blizzard's matchmaker from Overwatch that's about player retention and labeling people as babysitters, didn't you? I can smell it from here.

Got completely destroyed, couldn’t even farm our lane at all. The entire enemy team felt like professionals and we were little shrimps fresh from the ocean.

I often get this kinda match where i'm the only one who take the the guardian in the laning phase.. like i rarely lost at laning phase unless i autopilot or getting ganked because of my teammate being absent on map pressure.
Through out the game my teammates always die because of overextending, they keep making bad decision when it comes to push or fight

Either they are still new to the game or they are just mechanically bad

if the tracker number is real than there is clearly issue with the matchmaker
