You’re obviously legendary material if you made it there last season. The point difference isn’t that huge… I have a feeling it was an intense match that didn’t end favorably, it’s okay.

Do you want to steamroll noobs or fight players on par with you? You’re fighting other legendary players… Expect your games to not be easy, but hopefully fun.

Edit: insanemaniac.2456 pointed out that emerald = ruby/sapphire.

My response:

I noticed that too late xD. My apologies. Still, you should be fighting close to people your level. That’s the message I was trying to convey.

Yeah I’m confused on what you’re saying here… from the screenshot, it was a close fair fight. You just seem to be under the guise that you were supposed to steamroll the other team because you were paired with a group?

And as Mes pointed out, you’re going up other “skilled” members.

And so it begins. I give it about 1 full day before 1/3 of the posts are complaining about matchmaking. It happened in seasson 1 and it happened in season 2. Two games and already complaints?

LOL i feel like 50/50 matchmaking is back. It is either 500-200 win or 500-200 los.

Why wait a day? I’ll start the “MMR Hell” followed us from S2 right now. I’m already at 4 matches and 4 losses in Sapphire. I’m stuck on teams with players that will not speak, communicate, or organize professions. A couple of them appeared to have little PvP experience as they were fighting at our spawn for an extended periods. Salty doesn’t even begin to describe me right now. This last match had a naked thief telling us, it doesn’t matter. This is the horse patties I’m stuck with….

I refuse to play SPvP because of the horrible class balance, but I don’t really see your point OP.

You lost a close match… what’s the problem? Most people look for games with <100 score gap. The image you posted has this, so it should all in all have been a really good game.

I just had 5 losses in a row. I won my first game though. None of the games were close.

The problem is simple: look at your signature!

I have not mentioned anything about the results, it was a good game.

My point is just matchmaking and as I mentioned above, just testing.

Oh okay, I’m sorry looks like I misunderstood. Good luck testing. May RNGesus be with you in your quest for good matchmaking.

Only thing I don’t get is how are you supposed to rank up if you’re basically forced into losing half of your matches?

Win streaks literally do not exist anymore, by design.

One foot out the door, yet again.

OP, you lost that game by about 80 points. That’s really not bad. So you only lost 2 of your 2 games. That’s only 2 games. Start complaining when it’s 8 in a ROW like at the start of last season. Then we’ll know if things have changed or not.

Well maybe the issue isn’t skill but class comp for the team.

In the first few hours of the season, I have a 66.66% loss rate. I thinks it’s pretty obvious why people aren’t turning out to play.

My first game was a 502-100 win. Game after that was a 140-500 loss, next win 500-240(or something like that, next game loss of 75-500.

Nice to see its all balanced. I can see the league being dead once people get there back items. My self.I’m only aiming at ascended. I’m not going to put my self through the hell of another season if this is the “best” match making that can be used.

I don’t get the complaining here. I played exactly 10 games, 6 wins, 4 losses so 60% winrate, i got 2x 3game winstreaks, after the last 3game winstreak i stopped for the day so I’m now 6pips in sapphire. I played all 4 of my classes, 5 on warrior(3-2), 1 on ele(win), 1 on necro(win) and 3 on rev(1-2). So far it seems to me that s3 is the most balanced yet.

I don’t know why ppl are upset when they lose against premade. For me losing 50 points because of team full of kittens is much worse.

You don’t get the complaining because you’ve been fortunate to not have clowns for team mates.

emerald is a hot bed for High skill players that came from ruby ect and those that Easly Win though out amber , im going to leave it a few days till it clears up a bit so i can get away from the Newbies / afk game killers .

theres no point in stressing myself out that simply makes it not fun.

the amount of poor plays i’ve seen this afternoon made me churn , slow damage necros going for bosses and guardain dh’s camping home rather than killing foes between points keeping them off nodes since they can teleport to a foe if he slips by using the double trap stack tactic one set on node the other intercepting or those guadains that throw all the eggs in one basket then die , then you have those that chase people all over the map,

or the Noobiest mistake i saw , im taking a home node beat away a fellow power druid using a condi druid he retreats but used smokescale stealth hid for a bit but during this time im recoving at 25% hp with cooldowns and the fellow DH decides to leave the moment the ranger leaves the node im on (not even looking behind to check or noticing that he can’t see the ranger or the pet (oh he must of ran off already Rangers are not that quick at sustainted mobility , in quick bursts of mobility yes he should of noticed him leaving the node)

and you can guess what happened , in comes the same ranger and finishes me off with a smokescale assault+ Pew pew while my pet was leshed no time to recover quickly nor the needed cooldowns to evade , kitten them type of players not looking out for team mates fed up of it.

i cover their backs and get nothing in return.

I actually had clowns even in the games I won, mostly because others played well and carried the clowns. Still season is quite decent so far.
