Guild Wars 2

I seem to get the same “luck” in ques I do in the PvE portion of the game.

It’s not that bad honestly, it’s even somewhat of an improvement from the old soloq.

I’ve been flip-flopping on this lately because it can be hard to explain sometimes. So far this off season I’ve played over 500 games, the vast majority have been solo and a few duo and tri. For the most part, all my games have been fairly close. Of course there are exceptions, and I get games when I’m wondering why I’m playing with these players. I go against premades, sometimes even multiple times in a row, and yet the games are still fairly decent.

Compared to the old soloq, where the majority of my games were never even remotely close. Personally I feel the system is working great, when there are adequate numbers of players online within my skill level. Naturally, everyone is going to have different experiences, however for me; I’ve seen huge improvements since when they first introduced the new system back in December.

Or maybe I’ve just gone past the point of no return and I’m just rambling.

I can say I have similar experience as Harbinger. Ranked games are much more close than unranked.

I do get some very competitive matches but I seem to be the go to player when Anet needs to fill a kitten team versus a premade buzzsaw

I don’t really have a problem with ranked most of the time. Sometimes I get a row of games where I’m against much lesser skilled opponents and I get confused as to what’s happening.

Sounds the exact same as unranked, you either get to fight a premade team or a team you’ll easily beat.

I get a few great matches (well balanced close score) but I get far too many faceroll one sided matches.

The first thing that kills rated is low level ppl. I see lots of lv 1-5 ppl trying their new builds in ranked and in 70% cases ended up leaving the pvp battle.

Make rated min lv 35 like 1st dungeon.

They really just shouldn’t allow premades anymore…… they should force everyone to soloq it’s not fair they always g3t g00d teemmates and I g3t all level 1s whIle they are all level 80 with lejundaries doing more damage than my team, I can’t even get my teemates to cap a point with me everytime I try they leave the point with just me on it, if they just stayed we could cap the point twice as fast

@Aidenwolf I understand you frustration after playing arenas for 7+ years in Wow on good level it brought me lots of frustration to play solo q in pvp both in Swtor and GW2.
I still think that ranked should be played mostly in teams but GW2 has best solo q you will find in Mmo.

Solution which I have found is play class and spec which you enjoy whatever you win or lose and be good at that. Be team player curse your team mates under your nose (found it very helpful even on teamspeak do not push talk button haha) do not write anything which is not aimed to help win a game. Also do not play too much in one go.

I really enjoy SoloQ now and sign with one friend that helps or two.
