So many bad players in higher tiers why anet?
They get carried, they want the rewards too.
All the good players have left?
The Ghost of Christmas Past
I’ve had the same experience as you, OP. I rode win streaks to Legendary with a 70% win/loss, and then started getting consistently poor games. People start not caring or trying as hard. And I’ve noticed that I myself have been playing poorer because I’m seeing others play poorly. It’s not fun to suddenly play worse than before all because I’m surrounded by stupidity. I had a three game losing streak the other day and they were easily the least fun games of the whole season. Since then, I’ve just stopped. I played some hotjoin and actually found more intelligence there (not much more though).
Anet, this seriously sucks. Players should be getting BETTER at the game to advance, so that higher levels are actually filled with skilled players. I don’t want to get carried to Legendary by win streaks by beating less skilled players. And I don’t want to be destroyed because my teammates happen to be worse than those less skilled players on the other team.
To save my MMR from dropping even further, I’m waiting till next season since you won’t reset MMR.
Honestly, most truly bad people seem to be able to get to about Diamond. One gets his/her fair share of games with & without these players. What really hurts is the rampant AFKing/DGAF attitude in Legend division. It’s pretty much a punishment to move beyond Diamond. Your queue times increase and matches are quite awful the majority of the time.
