My friend and I,started the season out on Warrior and necro. We decided to change things up and go Necro and a mesmer, up to this point we had had a solid winning streak into ruby and had not lost many matches.

Once we queued up as these two classes , at times I would switch to ranger, we found that we were always on the team that had a big class balance issue.

For example, our team would be a necro, a mesmer, two thieves and maybe an ele, or another necro. Sometimes three thieves. Of course none of the duplicates wanted to switch. What was odd is that it seemed to be the system had a predisposition of never giving us, Guards/Revs/Warriors/ engies. In fact that was usually what was on the other team almost 80% of the time.

So in an effort to test this, I switched to a warrior and he an engi, and sure enough we were paired with other warriors and engies/revs/guards and began to win again instantly.

I am not sure if this is some sort of bug or some odd way the system is set up to balance out matches? Is this a one time coincidence, I dont think so…

So I am here asking if anyone else has noticed this.

Sometimes I queue up and get matched with absolute morons, regardless of the class they’re playing. That’s an instant loss.

Other times I get people who know how to play, or can actually listen to direction. Those games are generally wins.

Conclusion: Life sucks. Eat chocolate.

I’ve noticed this myself, when I play druid my team has thieves and mesmers. When I play warrior my team had guards and engis. Not always but enough of a time to notice.
