Guild Wars 2

I just want someone to explain this. I play 3 games, win all 3 in soloq, then I duoq, play exactly the same as I normally would, a relatively perfect game for my own personal standards… and we lose by a small margin due to a language barrier but we can’t help that.

What I don’t understand: Why did I lose 45 points in one game, for a close loss? I’m Silver Tier 1, my duoq partner was Bronze Tier 2 for that loss. So I’ve lost my day’s progress because of one match, with class stacking and a language barrier. It just seems a bit unfair ngl.

-45 MMR is wild lol

if they dont changed it this season you played your match against high bronze(you are placed in the mathematical mean of the duo), match you are suposed to win clearly and you lose it, this is the punishment for smmurfing and losing, all works as intended, fine

Looks like you were highly favored to win that match and still lost, thus the harsh drop in rating.

I think he’s at that weird gooey stage. His volatility is extremely high. He needs to play more games for his rating to normalize.

I just expected a -9, or a -15 for a one time loss. Not -45. That was like my day’s progress (only played 4-5 matches that day). It just feels a bit wrong that you’re not allowed to queue with your friends depending on the division that they’re in, because if you lose, you’ll be pulled down massively.

more wrong feels being in a match of ,in this case, bronze div and finding a player of higher ranks with “theoric” far high skills that intended on bronze players

Somebody mentioned that in these cases your rating is still volatile. So it’ll fast track to where you need to be. (especially just after your placements)

Once you are regularly wining/losing 10-12 points is the division you “should” be.

^^ Elaborate pls? (megilandil)

duos are placed by matchmaker in the math mean of their mmr.
if you silver 2(aprox 1200 mmr) plays whit a bronze 2 (aprox 800mmr) you will be placed in a team with players of aprox 1000 mmr and against a team of aprox 1000 mmr

Update: Started the day as Silver Tier 1 (1,076), I’m now Silver Tier 2 (1,150) after 3 matches! \o/
