Dominion is even worse.

You're another one of those people who think that normal queues have the same MMR as ranked queues.

A Diamond player can have a low normal queue MMR if they don't play normals or they goof off in normals and lose to low MMR opponents. And considering that this website is creating its own MMR numbers (because MMR is an invisible stat), they are pulling those numbers off the players' ranks, for a NORMAL QUEUE GAME.

Apply some logic here bud.

The MMR system doesnt seem that bad, according to the results : http://www.noelshack.com/2015-28-1436470769-game.jpg

Heimerdingers farm was on his level, but they got normal amounts of kills. And the other below 30 had a reasonable amount of farm.

What's wrong with it? A couple high level ranked players with low normal mmr is all I see

My team has 2019 mmr, the enemy has 1656 mmr. We have diamond/plat, they have non-lvl-30s and gold.

363 team mmr difference is not fair, lol.

They're trying to sweep it under the rug. They disabled the borders on the enemy team so you couldn't see that despite moi being Bronze I, and my teammates maxing out at Gold V, there are a team of Platinums on the other end.

They removed it to tone down the defeatist attitude that you so blatantly possess. Do you really think they don't know that you will look it up somewhere else?

Remlap12232 votes

Nice subtle insult there chief.

But riddle me this, since I looked you up on OPGG...

Would you rather be matched against people in Gold and low Platinum?

Or would you rather be matched against High Diamonds and Master players?

Would you rather be matched with other Gold Vs?

Or would you rather be matched with Bronze Is like myself?

I don't think you really need to answer that question.

That's great, if only you could show us the MMR instead of the other useless stats your graph provides.

T RexHasTinyArms2 votes

Umm, but aren't those the wrong mmr numbers? It only lists ranked mmr right? And because it is a normal game the players have a different mmr then their ranked mmr, so op.gg using ranked mmr isn't an accurate representation.

Then you are obviuosly blind to the two below level 30 players.

What's wrong with it? I'm mid gold and have fought master league players...tell me that's not a problem.

slipstreem3 votes

Your normal MMR is separate from your ranked MMR, even though I was diamond last year, my normal games play at closer to a gold level because I routinely queue up with friends that aren't that great so when I queue up on my own in normals, I usually find it to be an easy win because I am not where I belong in normals.

I think it shows the normal MMR there since it's a normal game..

Arsames1 votes

It shows the normal mmr, not ranked, lol.

Guy Fox Teemo3 votes

THis is a normal game, meaning some of the diamond players probably don't play a lot of normals , meaning they'd have lower mmr then that of a diamond player, normal games don't account for your ranked status.

jersatt2 votes

I got used being one of those unrankeds that get to play against diamond V and platinum 3 ;_;

I also won against a challenger c: http://imgur.com/NBkskVk

I don't know what you're complaining about. Dong squad about to dunk on the whole team.

I'm talking ult grenade penta kill.

EDIT: But yeah matchmaking is broken. Since there's no real marker for smurfs accounts, you can't ensure that smurf don't get matched with new players while simultaneously ensuring that new players don't get higher elo players based on winrate alone.

BigPooStorm2 votes

This is me every other normal game. Me on a team with silver/gold vs a team with all diamond/platinum or even challenger/master. Normal match making is pretty retarded. It's even worse when I queue with friends who are in bronze/silver, and they have to face people in platinum or diamond. I literally never win when I play with my friends.

What i don't understand is if there is millions of player why do am I get teamed with same summoners or see summoners on the enemy team again and again if I grind matches? Is MMR lazy?

Delioth3 votes

1- they're probably close to the same MMR as you, and thus matched sooner. 2- If you're grinding matches... then the people you just finished with are probably starting to look for a game at the same time as you. As such, if 50% of the players in that match play another match, then the matchmaking system only needs to find 5 others at the sameish mmr.

LordGeovanni1 votes

you forgot that even though there are millions of summoners idk how much on this sever being NA. this is how much people made accounts some have stopped playing some arnt on at the moment some arnt playing matches at the moment some may be playing another game mode. then the other 2 points you made in that order

Kind of your fault for pairing alvl 19 with a plat.

lol. Such good match-making.

Rikari1 votes

Riot thinks of MMR as a scale,where Balancing two sides evens out the game,also,unranked is counted as roughly Silver 3. I know this to be true. It does not work. NEVER play Dominion.

MalzaharAnyLane1 votes

Me and my premade parties are also noticing that matchmaking is way more screwed this year in normals than any year I can remember.

If we're seeing anything close to 300 or 400 MMR spreads, that's going to explain a lot, because my winrate is about 50 percent, so my normal MMR has been where it's supposed to be for several years now.
