About 19:20 GMT i queued up for some rated because i was bored…anyway we faced 55HP guild full of tryhards v our soloers.

Can a dev explain to me HOW or WHY this happened. BEcause i cant see how a player base issue ( as one of their members seemed to say it was) is the reason. Regardless of player base, you telling me there are not enough players playing at 20:30 server time to NOT put me against tryhards when im soloing?

It’s a joke and not fun for either teams.

Just queued again, and yet again (thanks to their confirmation) it was a full 5/5 premade v me with pugs….we won this time (because our setup countered theirs) but once again..why are these FULL 5/5 premades happening v pugs….

I’m not blaming anyone for queuing, its obviously not their fault, i jsut want to know why their system is failing and why this is happening.

At least you can improve your skill in the first game and see how many plays a minute a top player makes! Kappa

lol thats not really how it works though is it. If i was in a premade facing them, i could learn from them, im a good players, would give them a game(better than the one i just did anyway), but you learn nothing when pugging v these kind of players who just stomp my team because they have the co-ordination and synergy of playing together.
It’s just out right frustrating and im sure even they dont really want to be tested by yoloers…
I’;ve faced the top teams multiple times before in premades, but i dont expect that to happen while soloqueing.

Yes. Regardless of win, solo queuers should NOT face premades and i faced 2 in a row.
The first was 55HP, understandably we lost hard, 2nd was a different premade but my point still stands….

Would like a DEV to just find out why i faced 2x premades in a row(full 5/5) when solo queuing at PRIME TIME…

the point is unbalanced matches, solo vs premade and matching with teams that you have near to zero chances of winning

Why shouldn’t they? If you have a premade group of lesser skill level then those of the pug group, why shouldn’t they be matched up?

I would much much rather play in that situation then follow the OPs horrible suggestion and sit in queue because he is unreasonably unhappy because his competitors happen to be premade. The system matched you in a manner that allows you to win, and you complain. As I see it, there is no problem. Beyond that of the pointless complaint, that is.

Yes but that hasnt happened has it. I lost with a 300 point gap, and won with a +300 point gap…now the fact they were premades is bad in itself but the fact the gap was 300 points shows the Matchmaking was even more kittened as if it was working as intended, those kinda of point differences should not happen really, regardless of pug v premade.

You have missed my point entirely.

Because when teams were restricted to playing against only teams of the same size, threads like this were appearing so it had to be changed back:

And it seems like your first match was bad luck more than anything else, maybe some of their members just had a bad win streak due to dcs or something. For the second match, they obviously weren’t a very good premade so there probably weren’t any premades in the queue of their level, making it more fair to match them vs pugs and compensating with higher MMR.

Almost all of my matches have been blowouts (I’d say 80 – 90%) and usually end 500 – 150ish. The few times that I lost (by now) was usually against a premade team of known pvpers. I don’t really understand how I still get matched up with/against people I have never seen before, but hey, I won’t complain about winning.

Soon Wild Justin will appear and tell you that only 10% were blowouts xD

It would at least be interesting to hear what he defines as “blowouts”. Personally I’d say any game with a 250ish or more point difference is a blowout and the majority of my games have definitely been like that. I think it’s getting better though.

Just in case: I don’t want anything changed, Justin. ;P
