So I have been following a higher ranking PvP-er, and so far the matchmaking seems to be awefully off.
I mean, he gets people who are either very low ranking, or not even on the leaderboards.
Is it even worth it trying to get into PvP now? It seems that because of the matchmaking its just eternal frustration now for both rookies and elites.
It goes both for solo, and team queues as well.

Matchmaking has been confirmed to have some issues, and devs have also confirmed an incoming fix.

It’s worth getting into PvP now if you enjoy it! There can be some frustrating experiences but if you like the game then you’ll still have a lot of fun playing it. If you play your best but without taking your rating too seriously, you’ll have fun.

If you like to play PvP, then start playing.

Like Nevir said above, the matchmaking is a work in progress, but you will still have fun matches. Granted, a better matchmaking would give more interesting matches more frequently, but there is still fun to be had if you like to compete.

I would however recommend team que over solo. There are fewer variables out of your control if you decide who the 5 on your team are. Even if all 5 of you are bad the ability to communicate and learn from mistakes is much more valuable than not knowing what took place in a solo match.

Oh well. Let’s wait for another year for a functioning matchmaking system.
