Stop this Please.
known issue, you didnt have to make new thread
The problem is two-fold, for the new players they face off against opponents way above their current level thus making them feel bad in a match not being able to do much. And for higher ranks in that team its frustrating to constantly face half pre’s and full pre’s of ranks 40+ with 3 lower ranked players that don;t fully know how to play the maps mechanics etc.
Yesterday I was trying to get new people into pvp from my guild. most of them only played a few matches, so their MMR was low, we constantly kept facing rank 40’s, and thus they got frustrated and just said no thnx. I was sad i couldn’t get them motivated because they can’t play against people their own skill-level. Of course I did realise and explain to them that because of my MMR they would face people that where slightly higher ranked, but it was more like…rank 40’s – 50’s constantly…that gap is just to big.
1: Make brackets already, 1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, etc etc
2: Split solo from pre-mades, yolo-q got the name for a reason.
Currently I am deliberately trying to get my MMR down through Yolo-q’s so i can play with them, after they train a bit in Hot Join…which I know aint a good thing, but we have nothing else.
My r33 should not mean that with a lvl 6 and 3x lvl 10 in my team, I should face a full rank 40+ team. It just does not give any enjoyment on either side. At least, with my old team, we always appologized if it was a rofl-stomp match-up, we’d rather fight people our own level and have a nice balanced match, instead we mainly got lower ranked pug’s vs our full pre-made, got boring, the team quit.

the matchmaking system is completely broken. either you play with afkers or leavers or you have Level 1-5er in your team while the lowest rank player in the enemy team is Level 40. And not to mention the about 50% chance (from my experience) to face a premade while you are queuing solo.
There is so much broken with solo queue that i dont understand why this wasnt high priority for arenanet till day 1.
Champion- Magus, Shadow, Illusionist, Hunter
Again…
1 player soloq team vs 1 player soloq team
premade vs premade
Not able to submit rooster if you have not a full 5ppl team, you can go solo or with full premade only.
Done.
match making and deserter penalties at work folks. lol @anet
