Did you have a 10+ victory streak beforehand? Or at least more losses than victories? There’s a lot of folks on here complaining of the same thing – the 50% w/l pushes you back down.

^^this too. My entire match history is 2 games won 2 games lost etc. Althrough, I won 4 games recently, mannnnn the system didn’t like it. 7 loses in a row lol (including people sitting afk in half of them).
Or it has nothing to do with luck and you simply need to better yourself. I have been matched with so many rubies recently who are definitely not ruby standard yet somehow got there through grinding.

With matchmaking going for a 50% win/lose, sometimes RNG would reward the “new” player meanwhile place the more experienced player in a losing streak to balance progression. It’s quite random if the deserving player gets to move on up or not.
Im aware of people in the wolf/tiger rank that zerg, double cap yet sport a Ruby tag
How can this happen ???
3 days I played 10 hours per day and ended with 10% winrate(including 15 lose 0 win)
Is there a secret to get more luck? pls tell me (im ruby)
i was in similar situation by playing thief. I switched to rev and now iam happy person with 90% winratio
and btw i dont think its fair mmr 50% winratio is fair becouse it forces once full premade winner to play with amber rabbit rank players vs dragon revenants.
I was on a 20+ win streak, and then suddenly i started to be teamed up with full signet rifle warriors, 22222 longbow rangers, condi teevz (not even venom share), insta die bunker guards, and a general very low skilled type of player who obviously prefer to gank svanir and spend the entire game chase off point rather than contributing in anyway to the victory.
Usually there’s one other player who tries to actually play the kitten game but that’s all.
Couldn’t believe my eyes, had to check if i didn’t accidentally keep on pressing hotjoin, but no.
Went from mid ruby to 0 ruby. I’m so happy right now.

What is your rank percentage? I’m at 85% (win rate itself under 50% but with that percentile there’s no shame) and the final tier in emerald so I’m assuming your rank % is quite high. There’s no real shame in losing at those levels but 15 sounds like outright bad luck. You could have had disconnecters (connection yesterday was terrible for me in battlegrounds) and maybe even some MMR tankers combined with Teamspeak teams.
THis thread needs DEV attention! How on earth is MMR balanced??? Now that you’ve given us a “nice” view on our match history I once again get prove of what I’ve been claiming for so long. MMR hates me…
2days ago: 9 losses in a row(solo/duo), yesterday 5ish(solo/do) and then a 10winstreak(4manQ) and now again today I lost more than 15 games….
And you expect us to still enjoy this game? Fix this it’s getting beyond frustrating!!
Thnx in advance,
a very frustrated and dissapointed pvp lover (although that love is dieing pretty fast at this rate).

does not make any difference if you play better. most players goes straight to far which is the most annoying and 80% of my game losses coz no one knows how to pvp thats why they do no have confidence in fighting in mid which shows how nub they are. don’t get me wrong, i know far can be helpful if your team cannot take mid but players who afk, dc, and feed far like crazy specially no designated home or no one wants to take it makes it hard to win pugs and that is beside the fact that you tried to fill in the required position. most of us get really low players and players that have never really played ranks. beside this game is for people with friends anyways. ANET does not care about players as individual thats why they will always pound you to the ground and kick you while you are down. no help at all.

It is that mentality that is preventing you from winning. Your team mates dont know what to do? Communicate! Give instructions, ping the map, call targets. Explain why specific actions are bad. Do everything you can to win. I mostly solo q-ed to diamond division, so your point? If you are really good, you will progress.

Well that explains why I always hit a losing streak all of a sudden when I just need this one pip to progress to the next tier which then suddendly ends again when I’m back where I started… But soon I’ll be in Ruby and won’t progress anymore anyway so yeah…

I communicate a lot, ping points, draw arrows when people wander off or we have to rush the lord, write when there’s inc and almost every match someone says at the beginning what to do and still I get a lot of frustrating matchups where people just wander off for no reason, keep fighting off point and unnecessarily feed the enemy points. I might be able to defend a point on my own against most classes or support my team when we go mid but that still won’t win me a match if the rest of the team isn’t doing its job.

I dont know man, I get the occasional kittenty matchmaking and lose like 5 or 6 games in a row but 15 is a little too incredulous to blame on matchmaking. You’re probably tilting trying to make up for the losses.

I’m in the same boat… 10-15 matches isn’t an uncommon steamroll chain. That’s what is making me think I may have hit my last straw with this game. Everyone likes to win a match now and then, and it’d be nice to be able to go up a tier :P.
It’s good to know I’m not the only one getting frustrated by this. Me and my husband have been playing GW2 from launch, we have both put tons of money into this game because we really enjoyed it. We are avid pvprs and loved everything about the pvp and wvw system, then they changed it. We spent countless hours tweaking and building toons and learning the ins and outs of our classes. Then it started to go down hill. We found ourselves on constant losing streaks. We tweaked our toons more but it didn’t help. We talked about just quitting the game last night. it was really heartbreaking to know we put in all that time and money into a game we once enjoyed only to have the game go south. Very disappointed with the patches and such. PvP isn’t as fun as it used to be. They just got a bunch of people to play with HoT, but I doubt they will stay long.
