Ranked solo queue matchmaking is brokenly unfair.

My team has all diamonds. Enemy team has 3 challengers and a master. This is the second time it has happened as well. Either the matchmaking system is really broken or my teammates have just recently bought an elo boost because they are legit bronze.

If you checked all your past matches, you'd find plenty of times where your team greatly outmatched the opponents. And I bet if I checked your comment history, I wouldn't find a single instance of you complaining that the enemy was at a disadvantage.

If you want to learn your Matchmaking works, read the FAQ from the support page. It's working fine.

Wow. You don't know what MMR is, do you? How long have you been playing, again?

So we have to take Riots word for it as they wont release MMR so there is no proof their Matchmaking system is broken? how do I keep getting 3 ranked against me in solo when my team is ALL unranked then? utter rubbish if it had to do with average MMR then that wouldnt happen as the team would be more balanced

Matches are going to be much more even once you get into Ranked play. Normals have a more lenient matchmaking so that it's easier to find matches, and your MMR in Normals is separate from Ranked. Lower levels also frequently have mismatched games because it's harder to find people of similar level/experience, and is more easily skewed by veteran players leveling a new account.

Basically, hold your judgement until you've spent some time in Ranked. That is where you should aim for if you want the most accurate matchmaking.

Division is irrelevant and largely random. MMR is what matters.

Can't be working fine if we play with total feeders or agains them. I haven't had a single fair match and I'm doing my best to get out of silver but with this matchmaking system seems impossible. We either get a troll or a smurf, or enemy team does. Playing loses all sense.

While i'm not going to directly say there is a problem with matchmaking, there is sure as shit is something wrong with Riot's continual resistance to releasing "MMR." I'd love to actually see what my actual ranking is than getting some glorified division ladder that supposedly could be Miles away from my true rank.
