Yea we ALL know that people go to the forums to cry because they WIN all their matches
(edited by Ellie.5913)
Dude I couldn’t care less about the season, most people started playing ranked pvp becuz they wanted a silly lookin back piece. I played ranked pvp because that’s all I’ve ever played…but the matchmaking was better back in those days so it was fun for me and I won a lot. But now it’s not fun with the uneven matches so I quit. Sure I was a little upset at first because it was a shock that things changed so drastically that made me not have even or fun matches anymore, lots of people were upset over that and quit the game completely so its understandable. I quickly got over it though and just stopped playing ranked which was really weird at first but the more I got used to not playing it the more ok it felt. But you won’t find any ranting or raging or venting of non existent anger from me…(I save all my raging for more important things like real life) that’s just a troll remark. AND I’m done talking with trolls have a nice day
(edited by Ellie.5913)
Oh really, well I don’t know I don’t talk to a lot of internet people. Most of them turn out to be trolls, pathological liars, or schizophrenic so yea my bad. I don’t take back what I said though he really is blabbering.
Duh by my name… or am I the only one who uses their real name on here……I’d feel really weird using a girls name if I was a guy but that might just be me >.<
^ This guy just called me a guy so you know he’s SUPER confused. Also hes been stalking and trolling me all day… must not have anything better to do…..Ignore his blabbering.
OR make a new account that has never played pvp before, then you’ll have good mmr which means you get put on the best teams in ranked( if you’re lucky) cuz of the new match making system. Then with a little luck you’ll be farming nooby teams with 1 or 2 vets on them in no time! (ranked atm is all about luck unless they change it before next season) happy hunting
Lolz, at least I can win in unranked…apparently you can’t otherwise you wouldn’t be crying on here and demanding anet meet your orders and demands to keep your precious butt around…So I guess I’m better than you
OH and btw many many people who have been playing pvp forever in this game quit after they experienced S2 matchmaking in ranked, so what’s another person leaving gonna do……NM
At least i can win in both. The quality overall in unranked is far lower tho, so its a lot less enjoyable. Which is the entire point of this thread.
Matchmaking wasnt that bad in s2….u are just making up excuses. It isnt your poor play thats the issue right?
From my experience, I found Unranked to have better quality than Ranked. The games I had there were fun, close games. In Ranked it was just blowout games. I’d win 8/10 games, so losing wasn’t an issue, but there wasn’t much competition to be had.
Ya unranked does have better quality, I get close matches most of the time there, except when I run into a good premade. Some people just got way to used to farming newby teams with their not so newby teams and now that it’s more challenging they are crying a river. That’s what happens when you hand things to people on a silver platter for free then tell them they have to work for it. I find it hilarious

CAn we have scar pattern armor/outfits like in gw1 and the monk tattoo armor that looks like a loin cloth with tattoos. Most armor in this game is too bulky and concealing . I want to fight like a amazon warrior, without all that bulky constricting stuff slowing me down (also like a lot of other people said, we are over due for some new dance moves so maybe some dance books with gw1 dance moves I loved those dances, my norn dance just makes me want to slap them and tell them to stop)

Yea if you have any gems could I have those, I’m running low on gems.
Rev doesn’t seem very powerful at all to me, I’ve been soloing then with my warrior using nothing but a long bow.
Ha, ha! I think that’s the point.
They fall pretty fast to Sw/T – A/D, but they deserve it for having such broken OP abilities. I can’t begin to tell you how frustrating it is to be pulled out of your well timed evasive skill by some noob who pressed 5 on rev staff at the wrong time. How is it skill when you can’t evade?
I don’t know, I was never really great with revenant, ( probably becuz it’s new and haven’t really messed around with it much yet in pvp) but I wanted to practice and maybe get better with it but now I can’t it just sucks so bad, so I switched to warrior and haven’t lost one battle yet xD
Rev doesn’t seem very powerful at all to me, I’ve been soloing then with my warrior using nothing but a long bow.
Personally I never get matched with people who set out to lose a match so to me that just sounds ridiculous and VERY exaggerated, my teams and my opposing teams always try…..
I love GW1 content. I love GW1. Not a veteran (bought GW1 this year), but it’s so much fun to see how the story unfolds. Looking forward to finishing first campaign and embarking on the others.
Yes you won’t ever find another game as epic as gw1, very interesting and fun story line and pve stuff that makes you just wanna stay awake all night playing so you can see what happens next and see what interesting skills and armor you can find/capture in new places. Playing around with hero’s builds is fun too, they even have armor you can change on the heros if you have the things you need to change it. And the pvp omg the pvp before everyone left and stopped playing it was the most fun amazing pvp ever, I was sooo addicted to it, sometimes I stayed awake all day and night playing it, it was THAT fun. It’s pretty dead right now though so I don’t know if you’ll ever get to experience it. You might get to do some of the elite missions though which are pretty fun if you join an active guild that does that sort of thing and would teach you. And the armor yess the armor is very cool and there’s a large variety of it once you get to the places that sells the cool armor, in eye of the north you have to have a high enough rank in certain titles in order to buy the armor they sell in those places. But yea I love gw1 armor too you can find some very nice sexy/beautiful sets.
I think most people who are complaining are the ones that got teamed in ranked with the best players because of high mmr & against full newbie player teams which they steam rolled and had no kinda challenge, and got a little bit too used to that. Now you can see how it feels to be put with new & not so great players sometimes, its harder to win.
But like everyone was saying to me when I complained about horrible matchmaking in ranked….. if you l2p you can carry and win. >.<
Nonsense and stop feeling sorry for yourself and envious. Those two emotions cause 99% of the world’s problems.
Whoaa now no raging plz, what the heck would I be envious of… I find unranked very easy to win and stress free since there’s newbies and not too experienced players on both sides (most of the time)and not just gathered all up and put on 1 side to fight an entire team of experienced players like in ranked S2. And why would I feel sorry for myself….. I don’t get your unlogical logic. Too many silly accusations. Besides I’m lmao at this entire thread >.< funny stuff. (Oh and I think scientists cause most of the worlds problems with all their filthy toxic disease causing chemicals)
We don´t know if your problems in last season were because of bad matchmaking or your own fault. In my experience most players complaining about bad team-mates weren´t better than them. That may not apply to you.
The matchmaking wasn´t good to begin with in unranked (I wrote it earlier, matchmaking on how many games played is silly).
“Too many silly accusations.” Well, that happens when there isn´t enough information. Have you tried recording your matches?Btw, scientists the source of most problems? Without “scientists” we would still sit in our caves. Not me actually, without antibiotica (one of the most important discoverys in medicin history) I probably wouldn´t have survived my first year (Pneumonia). Its not about the inventions, its about how they are used by mostly other people.
Hmm well if you think that I belong on a complete team of noobies in ranked & put against a complete team of non noobies (Which makes no sense since I’ve been playing this crap for 3 years non stop & used to have a pretty high win rate before all the MM changes so I’m definitely not a noobie ) Then I think you deserve to be put on a team of noobies in UNranked & against a highly organized experienced premade. The irony is hilarious >.<
And yea scientists are our worlds biggest problem, they are slowly killing everything and everyone, there’s no way to escape the chemical apocalypse . The world was clean and pure and natural in the beginning then scientists come along and invent chemicals then everything becomes poisoned and toxic. The air the land the water food everything. I don’t think most humans lived in caves in the beginning anyways, I’m sure they were smart enough to make some type of a shelter/home.

I don’t like the spirit watch change, people still wait at the orb even though it hardly ever spawns anymore XD So might as well be an orb there to get.
Personally I never found any competitiveness in ranked in S2, It was newb team vs non newb team and I got thrown in with the newb team and lost every match something like 100-500 and even less when the other team camped my teams base and wouldn’t let anyone leave…If you want more difficult matches in unranked though play in the day time, there’s lots of premades in the day time and that makes it more difficult to win if your’e not on a premade yourself.
(edited by Ellie.5913)
What about Ranked do you enjoy more than Unranked during off-season?
Is it that you prefer climbing a ladder all the time? Or are there other particular reasons.
People generally just give more of a kitten when rank is involved. I just finished a match where we were 200 ahead, and people started DnT (no, not death and taxes, i mean dueling and trashtalking). We ended up narrowing winning by 4 points.
At least you won, and it was a close match, sounds like success to me.
I don’t get the point of this thread. Are we really arguing between the bad matchmaking of ranked vs the bad matchmaking of unranked? It doesn’t matter which is better.
Matchmaking in both is bad. It needs to be fixed.
^ This, everyone’s saying they want better quality matches that ranked has, but when I played ranked in S2 I was put on teams with players who were completely new to pvp and found better quality matches in unranked(except for those matches where I have to face a premade with my pug team)where at least you have newbies on both teams so it was a more even match and not a blow out match between a team of newbies with maybe 1 person not new VS a team of all experienced players.
(edited by Ellie.5913)
These items are inevitable but the occurence will vary. It will either never happen towards a player, or happen often as if the matchmaking universe single you out amongst thousands.
Yup my thoughts exactly, that’s why I want a dark rainstorm mini pet cloud to follow me around over my head. Not only would it be cute but people can see it and be like geeze shes an unlucky one hope I don’t get put on her team…..
Wasn’t key farming done away with? how do you still key farm?
Sadly yes, that’s now the slowest way to gain them at once per week per account. But there are other sources like PvP reward tracks, now WvW reward tracks and such.
DAng, I got excited for a minute when I thought key farming came back >.< I found much joy in it. And helping the occasional newby with money/answers to questions and such was pretty enjoyable too.
(edited by Ellie.5913)
Oh and if this Rocketship dude thinks I’m raging and ranting just by calmly stating my opinions and experiences …clearly you’ve never seen a REAL rage or rant >.< Lucky you. Oh and trolling by calling me a cry baby & I’m “forum lurking” and that sort of thing, yea I’d consider that trolling not the worst kinda trolling ( I’ve seen MUCH worse) but a little bit yea. And I don’t know who said it but some one on your premade did say the reason they play unranked instead of ranked is becuz they love farming noobs and bads. In other words they don’t want a challenge or a competition just a pug farm.
Yes I get it a lot of people like to team up but even more people like to solo play its just easier and less stressful than dealing with people. So it just makes no sense that they have to make unfair matches for the majority just to make the minority happy. Makes no sense at all but it is what it is. And if they want to force people to team up they should just remove the solo queue option then, and maybe add a different pvp area to play in just for solo players, ( like they did in gw1) cuz mixing them together makes no sense at all.
Wasn’t key farming done away with? how do you still key farm?
Now all we need is sexier armor to go with them since you can’t mix outfits with armor pieces.
May be you are right, we need flowers in each weapon, then noone will hut to other profession, peace for everyone!
Some builds work great, and other need fix something, i played the league and i never see a team better than other just for the profession, if you are not good, no matter how many flowers you put in the weapons , but… it’s what i hope they give us more options, not make all professions worse
Lolz, Hey I would like more flower weapons I LOVE flowers (I mean for visual only & even smell if that were possible…). But yea all these people coming on here screaming nerf this nerf that nerf everything I can’t beat is probably why there’s no variety atm.. that would be my guess anyways. I really don’t remember ever having a build that was way too overly super powerful, every build I ever played had a counter if people knew what they were doing…The elite specs are WAY more powerful than any of the core skills that got nerfed and keep getting nerfed, I ’m not even gonna complain about those, Just want all the nerfed builds to come back then we can choose a build we want and not play what everyone and their grandmother is playing simply becuz nothing else will work as good.
Skyhammer is better now that I don’t fall off the edge constantly like before and people on my team don’t yell at me for breaking the glass they were standing on causing them to fall. Haven’t had a chance to try spirit watch, no 1 will pick it when it comes up on the voting screen. Also I haven’t been killed by any mesmers yet so I don’t know what everyones complaining about. Necro still feels the strongest to me.
I don’t care about Esports….. I didn’t even know that was a thing for people. I just like playing games for fun, if I had a say in it I’d remove Esports and add fun
^ This is what I’ve been saying, personally I would love to see my favorite actually fun builds come back to the game that got nerfed into non existence, so we can have OPTIONS and not be forced to play something we don’t like playing just because it’s the only thing that is viable.
Anet should just introduce an in-game voice chat for pvp. It would probably reduce raging too since decent human being are less inclined to tell people they suck over a voice chat.
That would be helpful to those who would actually use it. Unfortunately its hard/impossible to get a random group of strangers to do anything you ask them to do ( some don’t even speak much English) so most probably wouldn’t use it except maybe premades since they are more organized and working together. And as for the decent human being thing…yea from some of the things I’ve heard people say in pvp there’s a lot of indecent human beings so they probably would yell out all kinds of profanity’s and harassment, which wouldn’t be an issue if there was a block button on it. But yea I agree that we should at least have that option, I love having options seems like there’s not a lot of em these days though.

Ellie you are blowing my mind. You want a change correct? To go back to the way the system used to be when it was even more broken. When there was a team que and solo que. It didn’t work, that simple. You are the one forum lurking complaining about this in other posts demanding change so yeah I would consider that a slight amount of rage. You are using drastic assumptions, I have not been PvPing forever. Only really got into when the PvP seasons started since the old system was broken and I didn’t enjoy it. Again your MMR is matching against what it considers fair. I am really curious to see what your PvP stats are (games played v. games won). I got no problem admitting I am around a 2:1 ratio. Just because someone disagrees with your opinion does not make them a “Troll”. And it isn’t a matter about farming solo players but getting better at team play. Some of us enjoy competitive team play. Made myself clear on that many times. And there isn’t a team que because it did not work so your solution is to bring back what didn’t work before. Logic. You clearly arn’t terrible cause you have been PvP’ing since GW1. Random arenas v. Codex arenas worked in GW1, HA v. JQ/FA. There were tons of play styles to work with. This game not so much. Que times were terrible. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Game_updates/2014-12-02 this is from when they fixed it. Just wanted to prove that there was team que and solo que and it did not work out for them. So again your solution is a bad one because Anet already tried that. Instead of complaining about the current system once again I will ask that you suggest a solution otherwise your posts just get drowned out as being a cry baby.
Yea I’m not one that just blindly eats what people feed, You can try to make me read a dozen pages as to why it didn’t work and how queue times were much longer than now. But you forget, I actually played when solo queue existed, and as a solo player my queue times weren’t long at all, they are MUCH longer now. And the matches were more even back then since it was all random pug vs random pug and no organized premades that have a plan and work together better than randoms & with builds and classes to complement each. The scores proved it too, there wasn’t any blow out matches when solo vs solo existed like there is now, pretty much every match is a blow out these days unless you get lucky and have a match that’s all solo vs all solo, which doesn’t happen often. Its obvious to most that premade vs non premade isn’t fair so it really doesn’t matter how much you try to argue or troll, that fact will not ever change.
Oh and btw I’m not the one raging, I haven’t raged any you are the one calling me names and telling me I’m "forum lurking " as if I’ m supposed to not voice my opinion and experiences like everyone else……….plz. Like I said you don’t have to get angry and rage and try to silence me from telling the truth, you will keep your silly little pug farm, nothings gonna change so stop stressing just go and enjoy farming pugs and be happy and stop trolling me already.
Honestly, most premades are pretty weak since you’ll generally get matched against teams with 1 or 2 people of your skill level along with their lesser skilled friends.
That’s your experience, in my experience I get matched against very organized premades (usually 5 of them)that have been PVPing forever, and if there’s a couple of people on my team grouped they usually aren’t very organized or experienced. So its always a slaughter fest, which I’m sure the ones being slaughtered aren’t having fun. The premade probably is though if they are anything like the ones commenting/trolling on this thread. So I’ll assume nothing will ever change and this will never be a competitive pvp game that makes any type of sense. That’s why I cut back on my playing time by like 99% which in the end probably will turn out to be a good thing. And I’ll save some money that way
(edited by Ellie.5913)
A sore loser will argue that being matched against better players is “poor quality.”
You guys don’t understand that what you’re asking for won’t fix your problem.
Lets see now, you either failed at reading comprehension or you are trolling. The topic is clearly about solo vs premade. If you want to discuss player skill I suggest you start your own thread instead of baiting people on this one.
I’ll have to back Pepsis up and point out, that Ellie isn’t complaining because she’s a sore loser or anything like that. She’s an experienced Guild Wars player. She’s PvP’d since Gw1 and she didn’t have trouble in PvP, until the the MM changes, putting pre-mades against solo players.
You don’t have to explain anything to this troll, besides I don’t think he has the mental capacity to understand anything you say.
Isn’t hot join still an option? Thought that is where most people ‘tested’ their builds and learned. The point y’all are making is teams should have their own que. It didn’t work before o they fixed it to what it is now. They have reworked the MMR system numerous times. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/PvP_Matchmaking_Algorithm Read up and learn how it works please. The with wins we had from the above screenshots we started to play against people with better MMR. Clearly the system thought your skill level could handle us but poor communication with your team on rotations lead to that 500-0. Having a team que and solo que along with ranked and unranked would add to many options for queing so the que times would be terrible. You clearly arn’t terrible if we have matched together in the past. Either the system thought you could handle those matches or there weren’t enough people playing. Teams get put into a higher MMR so your solo team must have a better MMR then all of us by ourselves? I get the argument of teams vs solos and how you think they need to be separated but they did that and it didn’t work. So they changed it, combined them, and adjusted the MMR system for it. Add a solution instead of raging please, something new that they havn’t tried.
I don’t see anyone raging here but you and your little troll friend who admitted loves farming pugs becuz its oh so easy( if you like easy non competitive matches with no challenge good for you… some don’t) And I already suggested a solution in one of my other comments, I really don’t feel like repeating myself anymore. And yea we get it that you guys love the system the way it is where you can easily farm solo players with your organized premade and enjoy that for whatever reason. But there’s a lot of us who don’t enjoy such a system and would like for it to go back to the way it was before when we had fair, even, fun matches. But there’s no need for you to get angry because some people voice their opinions, besides I’m sure its not gonna change so stop worrying about it and go back to farming pugs Have a nice day.
Hey since everyone gets old wvw back can I have old pvp back? It’s only fair…….
People that queue together should have an advantage. That’s the point of making teams.
Yea your’e just proving my point even more… premade huge advantage…solo player team huge disadvantage ….put them together in a match…predetermined outcome. End of story. Thanks
Trade off is queue times. If you limit matchmaking to isolate group queues, everyone waits longer.
I don’t know why people bother commenting without reading the whole conversation first. I played pvp when solo and team queue were separated. I was always a solo player never a team player and MY queue times were very short, usually I got in instantly. So no you are wrong the only people who had long waiting times were team players. Instead of leaving it that way they decide to merge them and create unfair & unfun matches which favor team players and pretty much say kitten you to solo players. And at this point I sound like a broken record repeating the same things over and over cuz people don’t bother reading things first so I’m gonna take a break now. HfTcBai.
Welcome to gw2 pvp where all the nut house escapees come to congregate where nothing makes sense but hey everyone’s ok with it , hope you enjoy your stay

those fools…playing 4 bunkers1 reaper in unranked 5q. here is them losing to duo q since they are just 5 noobs tryharding unranked
Yea I know they had a lot of bunkers, my poor unsuspecting PUG couldn’t even capture one point when we went up against them….. And he was trying to say they were just some random people that just now started playing together….. I’m pretty sure they’ve been playing together for a long time, seems like I’ve seen them before like ages ago.
Def wrong man. I have known 1 of them for sometime but we fractals together more than we ever PvP. The other we met on Saturday. 3rd guy added his guildie in and then we found that last after queing. He was a random that talked back to us in map chat so we just que’d up for the laughs. Think what you want but those are the facts my friends. Randoms trolling in PvP turning into friends that actually understand how to play. What you missed out on was all the crazy jokes and crazy laugh we had going after queing up.
OK I don’t know why you keep calling me “bro” and “man” but I’m definitely not either one of those and that’s getting annoying FYI. Also I recognize at least 1 or 2 of those people’s names from pvp from a way long time ago, and they usually have a premade, so these people aren’t your’e every day solo players like your’e trying to make them out to be. If they play alone they are way easier to beat……my point was premades have an unfair advantage (unless they are PVEers) and that’s never gonna change.
Well beautiful isn’kitten 5v5? Can’t win a match alone. So why not help your odds and make a team out of it. Just tossing that out there. Can’t expect synergy with solo’s to know where to go or what fights to be in. Solo que, message people to make friends, start a rando party and run with it. I tried reaching out to you in-game but seems you would rather just solo que. Yes a team that talks and knows whats up will usually benefit and win. Instead of complaining that people are playing an MMO and wanting to play together, why not party it up some. My guild only has 4 active people in it, of that only 1 plays PvP at all. When ever I play I start off solo que’d and make parties on the fly with people I see that know what they are doing. Better my odds. As for why is that happening in unranked is cause ranked gets stale after diamond. I’d rather play with people that want to learn and enjoy PvP then people just grinding their way through the divisions.
Yes you are correct I love playing alone as a solo player as do a lot of people. Does that mean I should be punished for it? No I don’t think so. There’s nothing wrong with people socializing and playing as a team either if that’s more your style. All I said is the 2 should be separated again, full team vs full team(if your team’s not full make it full or play solo queue) and let solo players play against solo players so the match will be fair. That’s it that’s all I’m saying. Makes a LOT more sense that way. But w/e its not my game they can make the game however they want. If they want to turn us all into monkeys and not let us do anything but run around jumping and screaming OHHHH EEEEEEEEE AHHH AHHHHHHHH all day they can do that. It wouldn’t be fun or fair and most wouldn’t enjoy it but if they want they can do that……

Nothing needs to be nerfed… just buff everything that’s weak and bring back old builds that got nerfed ages ago so we can have more variety.
It’s really a question of what’s feasible as far as I am concerned. Queues would explode imo if solos could only face solos and that’s why they are not doing it and its not going to happen so make peace with it. I mean think about it we already had solo queue at one point do you really think its because they want to punish you or something that they did away with it?
Yes I feel like I’m being punished every day for what I don’t know maybe something I did in a past life but that’s beside the point. I don’t agree with that whole feasible thing, there’s tons of solo players, solo players never had long wait times, wait times for them when soloQ existed was much shorter than it is now. The only people who had an issue with it was the few team players out there, To solve that problem all they have to do is make team players fill up their team completely before entering a battle then they can fight a team as a team and solo players could go back to fighting only solo players again. That’s the way it was in gw1 and it worked great, those were the funnest pvp days of my life. Also I don’t get how most people know its and unfair match most of the time and they are ok with that, Oh it has to be this way because the fair way wouldn’t work so lets just accept unfair matches….to me that just sounds crazy. I don’t have fun in unfair matches even if I’m on the predetermined winning team. Beating a team on equal grounds is a lot more fun than winning with an advantage….its called competition.
its funny how i see way more premades in unranked than in ranked but i have also won more games than i have lost vs those full or 4 man premades. Usually its just guild/pve teams practicing etc.
Yea sometimes it is PVEers in the premade in that case it would be easy to win, but in most of my matches the premade is not pvers they pvp a lot so its not gonna be a fair match at all. And the reason why they are in unranked is just like that guy on the premade said…They “love farming noobs and bads” apparently they love blow out matches like that and don’t want any kind of a challenge.

Which is just an out of context stat lacking the info to have any meaning
If the matchmaking isn’t totally screwed it has some meaning. On the other hand a few matches of some people have no statistical meaning. To be real, people who have bad matches come to the forum complaining, people who have good matches don’t come to the forum to praise anet.
you could have an overall 50% win rate of solos vs 5 mans, with 50% of the games being solo PvP players stomping vs inexperienced 5 man PvE groups, and the other 50% being 5 man ESL pre-mades on TS stomping solo PvP players,
What does that mean for everyone who lose against a non ESL premade?
“good match” what’s your idea of a good match, if it means a match that you have won well I have plenty of those too especially when the opposing team is all solo players & even more when I have a few people on my team that are premade. But its not a fair match which makes it a not so fun match & a this match doesn’t make any sense kinda match. Also tbh you sound like 1 of those people who have a premade team and enjoy farming solo players and don’t want that to change, its ok though, I’m sure it won’t change so don’t worry about it.
I’ve seen people in-game complaining about PvP too. When I was in Unranked a couple of weeks ago, someone on the enemy team in map chat said “I’m going back to Ranked, where people know how to play.”. That person just seemed to give up really easily. Obviously our team won the game.
Anyway, I responded in map chat and said “You won’t find any better matches there than in Unranked.”. Another person on my team also responded saying “It is funny though, how in Ranked you get some wins, then get a massive losing streak.”.
I’ve not experienced the losing streak that others have (fortunately), but I’ve become really bored of the current state of PvP. The blowout matches didn’t exactly excite me and it can’t have been very nice for the losing team.
Yea all I had was losses in ranked this season so I stopped after a couple days, also I could tell that every person on my team was completely new to pvp but the enemy team wasn’t…..who in their right mind would enjoy matches like that, there’s no point to it. If your’e not on the predetermined winning team then you are only there to be farming material for the other teams, no thank you I’ll pass.
Premade vs non premade….is it fair?
It seems to be quite fair with a small advantage for the solo players, because according to anet the win rate of five solo players is above 50% against five-person premades.
Only 1% of all Ranked matches played in season one were a full five-person premade group vs. a group of five solo players, and even then, the win rate for those five solo player teams in those cases was consistently at or above 50% throughout the entire season.

Well clearly some one is lying, all my matches go like the screen shots I posted…..premade win non premade lose and most of the time by a land slide.
