Broken Matchmaking

The last three games all ended up with me against High Gold - Plat players, while my team (including myself) are all silver (minus maybe one gold) or lower. What gives? How is that fair?

I've noticed more violent swings to create the artificial 50% win rate effect.

That is basically what I am at now. 1:1

It is not ranked so the MMR they have earned in ranked means nothing.

Also premades groups are rated higher than solos.

Was it in teambuiilder? Because this always happens to me in teambuilder due to the damn adjustments. The worst matches are the first ones on a champ because you get matched against high elo players also playing champs for the first time (first time in teambuilder anyway). >_<

Teambuilder is awful at match making. Again I feel great that they think I should be mid silver player but what games are they using? My Elo in Teambuilder can't be that much higher than my ranked status. It's a little frustrating getting smoked because you are facing players so much better than you are. I like being able to call out my lane prior to the match. Saves so much BS time. I love Teambuilder but not when they put me up against players I have no business playing against. Guess ranked is the only way to truly play against people of similar skill and be competitive.

well of course, if you have like a 90% win rate against people your mmr clearly, you dont belong here... you are too good for these people andd you ought to be matched up with these high golds and plats

so ive been told atleast, idk about the rest of ur team being terrible tho
