Guild Wars 2

This is not a post about queue times in legendary tier. To be quite honest I don’t find them that bad actually.

What has annoyed me this season more than any other is the trend of being teamed with the same players, and facing the same players match after match.
Also because matchmaking pairs you with players of your own skill, rather than making sure each team is balanced skill wise, it means you’re almost always facing the same players who are far better or far worse than you.
Either way it does not make for good games.

I’ve taken to checking when good/ bad players are already in a match so I can avoid being in a match with them.

I really wonder how hard it is to ensure matchmaking encourages variety in teams? If there are only 10 legendary tier players online, mix and match them rather than having the same teams game after game? Surely?!

Many people wish the same thing. Theres nothing worse than being teamed with guys you know will be a guaranteed lose. Why do we have to suffer through this over and over, match after match until your MMR is in the toilet.
