So I got to wondering about matchmaker so i did some experimentation.

I sat out the first half of each game I played…(10 games)
Then at the halfway point I joined in.

So there was some interesting results.

1.) In all games weather we were winning or losing I finished no further down than 2nd on my team and 1st was always within 20 points.

2.) In the games we were losing in my team almost had no points.

3.) In the games we were winning in we were barely winning and when I joined clobbered them (I took first overall in all of these.)

So my conclusions are:

1.) I am better than your average player.
2.) The teams are always very imbalanced and only through my own heroic efforts do i make them within 200 points. (300 vs 500)
3.) The teams are so imbalanced that by my controlled absence a 4 vs 5 victory is very possible.
4.) If you have been losing you are stuck on the losers team.

So you get this huge imbalance and really a very decent player can be stuck in the losers bracket forever because no matter how good you are you still lose and get yet another chance to be queued with losers.

So let me ask you why its OK to lose a pip in this situation:

1.) I score more than 100 points than all other players.
2.) My team has 2 guys that stay on home and 1 that disconnects.
3.) We lose as I make a herculean effort to win and am constantly winning 2 vs 1 fights, taking points etc.

I lose a pip after we lose.

OK scenario 2.

My team is winning and I’m just sitting in the home base dancing.
They win and I have gotten my points because I tapped somebody while running away and then someone else killing that person.
I get a pip.

So its huge effort and top score…lose a pip….no effort and get a pip.

Why shouldn’t everyone consider this E-sports effort a complete failure?

I don’t understand what your trying to get at… Points scored does not necessarily mean you were the reason the team one. I also think the matchmaking system will include players of separate mmrs on each team so the average team mmr is close.

So to speak you may have a match where it sticks you with other players all with lower mmr than you and they will obviously lose horribly, especially if you afk the first part of a match. On others that you win I imagine you are the low mmr player or the “dead weight” on the team.

I hope you didn’t afk in ranked though, for the sake of your teams pip loss.

Don’t bother with this guy. He accuses anyone who beats him in PvP of hacking.
