MatchMaking and Diamonds Throwing Games
That’s why I stop ranking; most o then are either working towards their achievements or don’t care anymore. There is nothing more to it.
Divisions don’t equal skills. Some people even paid to get carried to legendary.
I actually am finding the skill gap in Diamond is much wider than Ruby. By the second half of Ruby the vast majority of my matches were competitive.
In Diamond I am getting blowouts again. Fighting people that seem like they should belong in Sapphire not Diamond.
Two questions:
1. I am ruby, I grouped with 1 other ruby. we faced a team with a diamond. I thought that wasnt supposed to happen.
2. The team we faced had a 4-man, a diamond, a amber, a sapph, and an emerald. Our team actually had 2 diamonds. We lost 500-120. Are diamonds throwing games?
1. Maybe he was diamond t1 0 pips. It’s definitely possible, and fair, to face diamonds from the middle of ruby up to the end.
2. Nah, maybe the lower ranked players were smurfs/good players that didnt start until now.

I know a lot of people get to diamond, don’t care about legend and do their prof achieves then. Since if you only care about the legendary back you only needed like ruby last season.
So lots of achieve hunters will stop at diamond this season and be working on all the achieves and not caring as much about winning.

If you’re near the top of Ruby, you can be matched against people who are low in Diamond.
