Its really annoying that I can tell who's going to win a game 80% time just by going on OP.GG

You go on OP.gg and look up your match while it loads and you can usually predict who will win quite accurately just by looking at your team mates win rates vs the enemy team mates. I do not understand why Riot can't balance matchmaking even slightly better.

Because balancing the matchmaking won't make money.

I think you have a confirmation bias.

Thats just basic self fulfilling prophecy; if you assume youre going to lose, then youll play poorly and make yourself lose.

Seeing the last video they did talking about Balance, they said that they feel its Balance. They like the idea of high damage, and games being very fast. So it looks like what you have is not going to change.

I don't like having worse players on my team every single game even in wins it feels way to hard compared to the enemy teams feel like they're just breezing us

Balancing is impossible because every player has attempted to abuse the system in order to get easier games. People deliberately queue with smurfs so its the player's fault.

I went into a ranked game with a 27% win rate and I played vayne in the bot lane and won that game. You can't judge someone by their loss streak.

So you are complaining that Riot doesn't check every player's win rate, and then distribute the win rates so that each team has half the good players, and half the bad. Wow look, 12 upvotes on a thread that is literally asking Riot to rig the matchmaking and enforce a 50% win rate.

I'm getting matched with < 30 players. Riot's match making is abysmal. If the developers think they have done a good job, they clearly have no idea what they are doing.

That’s not true at all

use blitz.gg honestly it's so much better and displays everything you need to know.

Riot probably could, but that'd take work and increase queue times.

Don't go to op.gg. U'll be surprised by the effect.
