Match Making Imbalance still After 3 Years
It's been 3 years since I started playing this, and the match making is still laughingly broken. Sure, there are a few games where everyone is actually close in skill, but it's the exception more than the norm. The norm is having 5-6 'bad' players out of 10, with 1-3 smurfs and the rest being average. When I said 'bad' 'average' I'm talking relative to the average skill of all 10 players.
When I started playing 3 years ago, I quickly noticed the tendency of the match maker to not really give a fuck about what the average skill of the players is, rather, just find any game as quick as possible. I got better at the game, and no the issue never went away. When 9/10 games are a steamroll either for me or for the other team, and 1/10 are actually evenly matched, it gets old fast.
It's not fun when I get matched against people who are ridiculously worse at this game, whether on my team or the other team. An easy win is not (usually) fun. It's not fun when I get matched against people who are worlds better than I am, whether on my team or the other team.
No one wants to play a game where the enemy falls over like a house of cards. No one wants to play a game where your teammates are dying every 30 seconds cause the system is too slow at detecting smurfs. The real fun comes when your team works together to secure a victory.. helping each other instead of 1-2 people carrying the whole team. It's honestly a joke to see that happen almost every single game. That's all I have to say.
