How are games so unbalanced? Where is the Match Making Team at?????
I have been playing since season one and historically games were almost always close fights. Once in a while, there was a shut out game that felt really good or really bad depending on which side of the one side fist fight you are on. Its rarity that made these games fun and even sometimes enjoyable. However, Riot wants to keep up with faster-paced games like Fortnite and the like. So what do they do? They tried to soft rework the game to end sooner and for the likelihood of long games to be less common. Yet, when I have looked at what the differences are from then and now that could be making that goal a reality, I see that your games are no longer based on having teammates and enemies around the same rank. I remember games used to be based on 10 people all being around the same rank, but now all my games have people that can be mid to high gold vs people mid to high bronze. The only defense I have heard from riot employees is that everyone is still around the same rank. True if I go on OP.gg and look at the average team rank, both teams average pretty close to each other, but let's be freaking honest, who is going to win? A Gold 2 Fizz or a Bronze 2 Lux. Ever since matchmaking is less about everyone's ranks being close to each other and more about the teams average rank being similar, it's true that games are faster but a lot less healthy. Nowadays it feels like its nearly every single game that is a hard stomp. whether my team is going 46-17 or 17-46, neither game feels good and thats almost every game so no game feels good, accept the rare neck and neck game where both teams are equal in kills and its a tough fought but well-earned fight. I miss when League was strategical, now its just a bunch of hard stomps. I am legitimately considering uninstalling league. This isn't the game I fell in love with. I would much rather a longer Queue time if everyone in the game was evenly matched in rank and skill so games could be closer and better. I would pay for that so I wouldn't have to deal with the trash Queues that are shorter but leave teams getting obliterated.
