I have 2 accounts, 1 is in Diamond. The other hasn’t moved beyond Sapphire. Yes, it’s the MMR. I made the new just to prove to myself it wasn’t me.
You will never advance if you are always placed on the losing side.
And if anyone doesn’t believe me try it yourself.

I’m advancing and that’s my only account.

I mean… 11 win streak and before that one lost, was at 13 win streak. halfway thru sapphire in 34 games…

I wish I had your MMR.

Not your skill, just your MMR.

One foot out the door, yet again.

Yeah the reason you’re advancing is because of your MMR, same as my diamond char. The games are easier and my team mates are better. Simple as that. If this game used true match making, nobody would ever get 10 wins in a row. This system is design to allow good MMR to climb on top of bad, that’s why so many people are upset.

I don’t know, I find that this has a lot more to do with winning 10+ games in a row.

More than half of those scores were complete annihilation’s, it’s pretty indicative that you’re facing meek opponents. MMR gave you those opponents.
Nobody is suggesting that you aren’t a good player, but your team and the opposition are hand picked. Congratulations, I hope you carry on to ultimate victory. I’m glad some people are doing well.

Well if you wanna make conclusion out of scoreboards, I guess yes… my opponents were garbage.
But to me, I still feel like the elementalist icon has had much more impact than MMR (or the opponents) on the end result of those games.
Ever seen a bunker elem escorting doorbreakers? It’s hilarious really.

Wait… how is that possible? 20 pips into ruby means you needed 80 pips total. Even with a 37 win streak, you can’t get 80 pips. Did I miss something that allow you to skip tiers or divisions or something?

Yeah, previous season sapphires and rubies started this season in emerald. Previous season diamonds and legends started in sapphire.
Which was likely the only really good decision about s3 matchmaking.
