ANet actually let this happen...
They won’t respond to us because there is literally no benefit to them in doing so.
We’re the ones paying for this to happen.

I used to think (build op, pls nerf) like you, but then I took a nerf to the knee.

It’s exactly what they wanted, because they designed it to be able to happen.
One foot out the door, yet again.
No.1 of EU at the moment farmed Solo/Duo’s all night.

It’s 4am in EU at the moment and there is a team farming solo players all night. These are average players who would have no chance in Pro League yet they are getting free wins over and over again for hours now. Rank (Division) like everything else to ‘measure skill’ that you’ve ever added means nothing once again.
Is this actually what you wanted ANet?
I’d love an answer, thing is, I don’t think you have an answer other than ‘We have no idea what we are doing’ and that’s why there are literally no responses to any thread lately.
I understand what you’re going through.
It’s either you go against a 5man team of scrubs or you end up being teamed up with a 3 or 4man team of scrubs. Today, I have a 80% win rate from matches where my teammates all soloQ’d. The matches were a total FAIL when I ended up being teamed with a guild of pve ppl.
There are enough players at the moment to afford a separate queue for solo.
1. Divisions are not a “skill” measure. It’s a progression system. It means you need to play a lot of games and win a good quantity. This is a personal reward system.
2. Guild Leaderboard is ELO Based. It means your team gain points depending on your opponent rating. It’s the best design a team leaderboard can have.
If you’re complaining because there is a “premade vs solo” issue, the reality is that this game and many other games can’t survive with a pure solo and team (full team) leaderboard.
Maybe in the future Anet will able to add a separate queue (depending on population) but for now it’s impossible.
So instead of complaining to be chain stomped by a premade, just to not be lazy and create your premade pug.
well actually no, because once the system settles everyone gets to the skill level they belong, that 5 man team wont be capable of it anymore, so they’ll drop vastly in ranks down to Sapphire again.
it was obviously going to be abit rough in the start, all MMR Systems are to begin with.

It’s not like they have any other option…

Bad teams drop to the ranks where solo people are, farm them, get back up, lose to other teams, go back down, farm soloers again etc. There will be teams in every bracket, but even a really bad team is almost unbeatable by a group of solo players.
All MMR systems separate solo and duo Qs from team Qs.
Guys look at OP’s signature.
I’d be upset too if I were in his shoes.
It’s just not right that people with far less experience could beat and farm the hell out him because the game lacks a separate queue for soloers.

We were all concerned about premades farming the graveyard shift. Sadly it became reality and is here to stay.

League of Legends actually just did away with their solo/team que split for season 6. There is just one ranked que now.
Now, is the matchmaking system for GW2 quite as refined? Well, no. Each game tries to compensate for the merged que in a different manner. Ironically, the one GW2 uses (boosted MMR ratings for those that que together) would work better in LoL than here. LoL tries to match team compositions up similarly (so far as numbers who qued together go), which is the way GW2 should be doing it, since there’s basically no possibility of one person carrying a team like in League.

In another game,we had one player who was rank1 in arena.He had million friends in game,and their duty was to monitor arena games.If someone was any good,they would call him and report what is going on,and he would immediately log in game and forums,with tears of sadness and fear,he is going to lose his rank 1 spot.He would call people names,hackers,cheaters,wintraders,just because they were simply better than him.
kitten ,those toxic elitists…
But i look at them in this way : They are school bullied kids,and internet is their virtual reality,where they can do whatever they want
You know the solution would be so simple. Just look at whatever, for example Heroes of the Storm.
2 ranked queues, one for full premade teams, the team league. One for Solo q’ing with up to one friend.
That’s exactly what we should have here. One queue to play solo or with a friend and one to go in with a whole team.
The two will never collide.
