Guild Wars 2

What they need to do is simply match the teams.

If one team has 4 ambers and a legendary then the other team should have 4 ambers and a legendary.

If you manage to lose, or even let 4 ambers score 300 points, then either you don’t deserve to be in Legendary, or they are under evaluated. So it’s all good.

working as intended

this is working as intended.

4 ambers 1 legendary is supposed to lose against 5 legendaries.

blame the 5 legends for not 500 – 0 the game.

wait the 4 amber + 1 legendary will not get 3 pips if they win cause new MM treats those ambers as legendary also.

Lord Hammer Hand.4815:

in that case, then match prediction is broken, and not working as intended.

A better solution is that match prediction should also be based on the highest party team member. So 4 amber + 1 legendary would be roughly the same kitten legendary.

no, match prediction should be based on
[ total divisions of 5 members only] or
[ total divisions & mmr of 5 members]

not based on the highest division member.

players of different divisions grouping together should not be discouraged.

OP could not be more wrong. The 4x Amber + 1 Legendary team is treated kitten legendaries. For matchmaking, for match prediction, for everything. They have an increased chance of LOSING multiple pips, not gaining them. Its a 5 legendary team and will be favored against almost everybody. You want to party with Ambers, you assume the risk. 100% intended and 100% needed.

If you don’t know what the kitten you’re talking about you probably shouldn’t post.

3 ambers 1 diamond, and me as ruby XD vs 5 diamonds

Not sure why I had to get dragged into it, but we won anyway. Only got 1 pip.

ofc it’s working as intended. The intention was to permit teams to farm hard.

This, confirmed by Anet.

I asked specifically about this thing to Evan in the new Matchmaking thread, and he answered personally that it’ll work this way.

well if you ask me i would say match prediction is not working as intended.

match prediction should predict your team has 0-19% chance of winning but it does not seems to be that way.

seems like the new (current) match prediction expects the highest division player in one team to carry the rest.

You’re outright wrong. The match prediction worked perfectly. The ambers were treated like a diamond so they played a diamond team. The Ruby player probably had a very high MMR and it showed with the win and everyone who won got 1 pip, cause it was judged to be a even match due to treating the ambers like a diamond which is how it’s intended to be.

Lol, sorry, didn’t check the last patch notes, and I’m used to the slow speed of changes implementation by Anet, I thought that system would become active during Season 2.

thats just terrible.
and wrong.

still wrong in my eyes.
nothing will change that.

How and why? It makes perfect sense to me.

Valkyriez.6578:

How and why? It makes perfect sense to me.

Ive had terrible lobsided games due to this. Where 1 or 2 lower rated ppl teamed with 1 diamond got in to my games with or against me (i only soloq myself). Resulting in a blowout game for either team.

I dont want easy wins and i dont want blowout losses.

I want matchmaking to work and both teams with even minded skilled and experienced players. Is that so hard to understand?
