Guild Wars 2

3 pips away from Legendary. All soloq’s. Just had a Ranger on my team that used only longbow, off point, pew pewing a bunker necro, over an already capped point by the enemy the whole match. If he died, he ran back and did it over and over again.

How did he get to Diamond, let alone past Ruby?

Thank you for the quality matchmaking Anet.

Keep in mind people in higher divisions aren’t necessarily better. Some could have farmed stronghold with the solved optimal comp, or have low MMR so they’d progress by competing within that pool instead of a higher one (since the old MMR system works parallel to the league system, which is an awful situation).

To be fair to the druid longbow works great against necros from my experience (just be alert to stability) but running back to die wasn’t the best. Staff mostly has its uses in group fights where players can stand in LoS of the auto attack and CA form cleanses.

This exactly what happens when people MMR manipulate. So instead of ANET fixing the issue they don’t touch it until next season.

I really like their solutions (especially since I recommended some like matchmaking putting others of similar MMR on your team) but needs some kind of MMR reset since many MMR manipulators have MMR lower than their skill while many of those who were carried have inflated MMR. Thus at least a soft reset is needed while someone in another thread suggested a preseason where their MMR can be determined for the next season.

You all miss the truth of the matter: SUDDEN KITTENATION. Happens to me all the time.

I swear Anet is out to get me.

That pic made me cringe. I’ve had em all, but for the most part I’ve been lucky.

I took a few pics this morning and ive won some and lost some. This one hurt the most because i was 1 pip away from legendary and we had 2 thieves and they have 2 thieves.
We had a necro and they had a necro except all of there players were ranked much higher. They had a emerald though so i guess it made it a even match?
