Guild Wars 2

…until mmr has adjusted?

I´m a returning player. Stopped playing gw2 roughly 3/4 year ago and started again 3 weeks ago.
Since I returned I mostly got one sided matches. Either we were stomping them hard or they stomped us hard. To me both are equally unsatisfying.
Now I rarely get matches, were it´s actually a close call, where I can actually say: “Hey, this was a great match, they were about my/our skill level and I had lots of fun.”
It´s especially bad when I play with a complete Team (not a real team but 4 other random friends of mine, you know…)
When playing games with 2 or 3 of my friends it seems that it´s so much more balanced… Now I´m really hesitating to fill up my team with a fifth men because by now I know that we will get unfun matches…

Despite all my frustration what keeps me playing is the thought of something I read on this forum that the mmr gets adjusted over a few matches.
My question is: How many matches does it actually take?
I admit, I may be a bit impatient about this…

I´m sorry if this post seems a bit whiny, I´m a tiny bit frustrated x)

If your doing ranked i suggest unranked or vice versa, depending on the day i find better players in unranked.

I’ve only got about 20 games into ranked matches and already my matches have been better. The only downside is the wait seems to be longer.

if yyou go unranked then its simply because of the daily win reward and kittenty team match making. matches start with only 2 people ingame and the rest join the one person who mademore points .
ranked well i never paly ranked
