Dear ANet, The team I just beat...
This is just how matchmaking in any game works, there’s an element of randomness in order to secure timely matches. The enemy team on average should have the same skill level as your team, if your teammates are worse than you, than the other team will (roughly) be a weighted average of your skill and your teammates skill level. There is no problem here.
Insert the playerbase is too small excuse here
That’s the 50% win rate part of the algorithm. Did you lose any pips? Probably not because the system assumed you would lose.
It’s still crap tho…

If they were equal skill they wouldn’t have lost the first game by blow out. The match maker should not be pulling from the same group of players for successive matches, all this does is successively stack the odds against players by continually moving them into groups with lower and lower rated players.
Also, I don’t consider the status quo to be a good reason to keep doing anything, much like you’re answer suggests.

Of course I lost. Why else would I post about it?

Insert the ESPORTS pvp playerbase is exploding announcement here
There is no real ladder…. not with such a dead player base.
Just a hamster in a wheel with a 50% w/l ratio.
this is why i stopped playing ranked arena very often.
i would play one ranked arena, rest few hours, then play the next ranked arena game after a few hours.
i stop playing ranked arena on saturday and sundays all together.

Excuse? It’s the fact. You cannot invent opponents who do not exist.

Why are you putting me on their team in the very next match? I beat them for a reason.
Fix the match making. There needs to be more deviation than this.
Thank you
ur team and the enemy team are ment to match ur MMR, so even in a perfect system ur situation would be perfectly normal, 1 loss wouldnt shoot their MMR below ur bracket.
there are multiple reasons u could of won without purely being better then them, better team mates, More communication or even a better team comp all together, little things like this change games

The point is the team you were facing afterwards should have had a weighted average of your skill and the team’s skill. Your team in games with somewhat low population will not have the same skill as you, but the point is, the weighted average of your skills will equal the enemy teams skill. If you didn’t do it this way, you’d have massive queue times (and you’ll note tons of people are already complaining about queue times).
