Bad Matchmaking Thread

Match 27295329

A complete stomp. Over in 22 minutes, 4/6 of our team only had 1 death, and 1 had 0. Other team just didn't put up much of a fight at all. I wasn't even playing a hero I play that often or feel I'm that good with (Dynamo).
 
27298299 - this weeks rankeds are the worst. No communication in the team. how is it possible when i have ritualist 5 to queue me up with 3 unrankeds when enemy team has 3!!!! emissaries. Thats just a joke. Also when i have someone who talks they go, die and say im not there guys get back when teamfight HE STARTED still continues. and also famous gg. This week is unplayable.

Shiv hitting people across the map with his knife. 50k difference at 25 minutes. Only got down 1 walker due to a small mistake they made
Complete blowout from the first lane. Terrible put together match. Not even remotely fun
 
Match 27303246

My team just had no macro knowledge. Commonly going 4 a lane for no reason. Not defending. Ignoring lanes. Not to mention an Infernus who goes 0/10, feeding hard. Just completely different level players. Embarrassingly skewed. Awful, just awful.
 
just got this on ~5 mins of the ranking game 27304020
Nothing was running except Deadlock and Telegram, I had to quickly look for information on how to get rid of it
It took 10 minutes, which was enough time for the opponents to gain a big advantage
As a result:
1. Lost the game to my allies
2. Scored the game with a terrible personal score

It honestly felt like Lash wasn't taking any damage while at the same time was able to half our health at the very beginning of the game (which is why my lane partner and I have so many deaths). There was no farming, just the other team killing everyone, mid boss was ignored and the new urn locations are more easily contestable which meant we were were only able to deliver it once, and that was just by luck.

Why was the other team made with higher ranks? Last week I was doing alright with my matches, this week I've lost literally all of them because the enemy team was just better in every way.
 
Being in loser q means no matter what is your performance, you will start playing in lower and lower ranks. I literally have similar stats every game and can't win anything. Matchmaking ignoring solo performance is the reason everyone has such a bad time in this game. Literally no point playing ranked because you're flipping the coin.

Within ~10 games matchmaking threw me into way lower rank than it should, only because im losing games. But was any of this games winable? No. Again, in most of my games my stats are similar. So basically im doing everything i can and im getting punished by how one sided this matchmaking is.

Match id 27302363 or any other match i played in the last week.

match 27307172.
The other teams giest was 17-1 in 12 minues. They had all our walkers at 15 Ended the game at 20. Brand new players vs the other teams substantially experieced players
I had more damage total than 3 of my teams players. Tired of being on the shit end of chronic blowouts.

Having an Oracle and a Ritualist on different teams in a match where the average rank is Archon feels horrible. The team with the Oracle dominated the team with the Ritualist the entire match and it felt hopeless.
 
Hello.

I truly mean it when I say Deadlock has become increasingly frustrating to play. I cannot place my exact finger on it, but of the past 9 games ive played over the span of a few days, I only won *one* of those games solo queuing, and two of them when i was queued with some friends, one of whom is a player considerably higher rank than me. I hardly ever have fun solo queuing anymore. It always feels like the matchmaker is placing me and my team against other people who are far more coordinated or just flat out far better than anyone else on my team. And it sucks! because a few patches ago I always had fun playing this game! Matches should generally average about 30 or 45 mins to complete. So when I look at almost every single one of my recent matches being under 30 mins long (some even being under 25...) I cannot help but express my disinterest in playing this game. I shouldn't be forced to play with my friends to actually have an enjoyable experience in this game. I really hope this sudden outburst of bad matchmaking is being investigated by valve. Because everytime I open this thread, my belief of the game having gotten considerably less fun is only reinforced. Below are the 9 matchIDs I refer to, in no particular order.
