I have won 1 out of my last 9 games in ranked arena and consistently score really high. Am i just super bad or is something messed up? This is a screen shot of a typical game.

Well basically the way the game feels (for me at least) is that you have to be able to 1v3 if you want to win any match..

I have won matches if could do it (or at least stale 3 enemies for very long time)… i lost pretty much every single match where i wasn’t capable to handle multiple enemies at the same time by myself…. reason? Whole team rushes far ans keeps dying there whole match. EVERY SINGLE GAME… unless i queue with someone.

I really wish this game had better tutorials or something :/

I was 1v2ing just fine i didnt really have any trouble killing anyone who came at me. The 4v5 made things next to impossible but at least 3/9 games have been 4v5. I dont mind losing if the game is somewhat close but games have not been even remotely close.

ah that… i think it has something to do with the bug…
currently if you queue up you get randomly kicked from queue…
also if you DC from match you might not be able to come back
also, sometimes ppl get queue popped mid match and accept it

we are all plagued by 4v5, you are not alone hehe

even in 5v5 the games have been really lopsided. I tend to score pretty high on either team but as a whole we get steamrolled. /sigh

personal score is not what wins game, issue is mostly behind teams capping points and never defending them

^yea i understand that but if the MMR system was working as intended i would eventually go up against a team in which the team i was on had a close game, but it hasnt been like that.

because community is small and game looks for next best fit which results in lopsided matches

if we had divisions and actually big community it probably wouldn’t be such an issue

all you can do is to assume that 4 people on your team are bots and carry them harder hehe

Hey @kdizzle.9587,

Your MMR is still settling, so that might explain part of the trouble.

Looks like you’re struggling with ele. Have you tried this build?

You could also try another profession. I find I tend to do better with engineer, but the style and class of mesmer always keeps me coming back.

Your score doesn’t mean anything! Not sure why Anet has the score system in place! In fact score hurts the game more than it helps! We have new players double or even triple capping a point just to beef up their score because they think it matters!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Yes Arr Dee “frand” I wish the personal score was just dropped so you would not be comparing a DPS with a bunker, etc.

Justin, i appreciate your response, i am perfectly happy with my build and i dont seem to have a problem killing other players but before the patch i was winning 38-55% of the games that i played and they were, more often than not, very close games 400-500. As I said before, I do not mind losing, but the quality of matches has just been abysmal and that is my only concern.
