Matchmaking Balance Problems

MartianGlob··14 votes·904 views

Anyone else feel like since new (not very improved, whole other topic) draft mode, match making has been heavily one sided? I dont get a fair, balanced game.. not one since release. One sided domination in my favor and against me... is it maybe since it's been implemented people started coming out of the woodwork to play again??? Cause holy explicit this game is not fun when it's one-sided mayhem. explicit RITO!!!

Yeah almsot all of my games feel like that now. I would say about 1/4 games maybe even 1/8 is sort of even. Sort of. However, once a team gets a solid lead the snowballing effect it has on either team just makes it so one sided. However, all games start 0-0. It's your job to make it in your favor.

I've noticed a ton of lolskill win changes around 56%+, which is highly unusual. Normally they're in the 50-52% range. I would suggest there is significant deviation, which might be because of queue times and role selection.

Maybe, not sure, the longer you stay in queue the more likely your match will be "unfair".

Yes. Yes. Yes. Our Bronze 1 ranked team has been matched against a team with a Plat or Diamond 5 out of the last 9 games. Not fun at all

I'm Silver V, yet in many games I've been matched with high Gold, low Plat, and on 2 cases even a diamond player, all while playing with Silver friends? And in some games I've been matched against under 30 players. This is just a guess, but I believe the new system haso a new MMR that was set to 0 by default so it will take a couple weeks before everyone gets back to normal.

They haven't changed matchmaking at all.

Any change was due to other factors.
