hello

this may/will sound incredibly whiny, but is it not possible to improve matchmaking, so that i will play with people in my divisions? i’m low gold, but was just placed in bronze matches 3 games in a row. teammates told me so in team chat, and they played like it.

not even overwatch has this poor matchmaking.

Most people do place against teams they are close in skill to. The most common reasons for it not working as expected™ are:

  • you are in a duo-queue with someone, where the average MMR of you both is used
  • you are playing in a quiet time, so the game sacrifices ideal matches for faster matches

In the first case, there isn’t much you can do other than not duo-queue, or be similar in skill.

In the later case, you can change when you play, but at least it means that both teams are equally likely to get the low-rank players, so it’s not gonna mess up your MMR, just be less fun.
