When you got a shitload of people complaining about having players of a much over rank that they are being played in ranked, you are gonna enrage people and spread out ELO hell/less skilled players to higher tiers which is gonna badly affect anyone that wants to climb.
It's one of the many reasons why S7 is so damn terrible.
I wear Givenchy2 votesits made so you dont climb and spend more time on the game. Everything is about profit. So, unless you're challenger and carry horrible teammates, you're going to have a long time ahead of you grinding games.
La Belle Sauvage1 votesI'm a terrible player, but I am climbing and I agree something must be done to improve Matchmaking. I just don't know what that should be.
Let's say Chess was 5 v 5. The following example would never happen, sure the average rating of the teams are within 10 points, however, Team 1 is full of Class D-Class B players, were Team two has 3 Master candidate players, plus a Exert level player. Even if in this scenario the Unranked player got to move without aide of the other team members, it would matter team 2 wins. Easily.
Scenario 1. Team 1 Ratings: 1650 1700 1575 1400 1625 AVG: 1590
Team 2 Ratings: UNRANKED 2000 2000 2000 1900 AVG: 1580
However, here is the scenario that bugs me.
This time, I'll use LoL players and ratings. Here, Team 1 loses most of the time. I'd even say maybe as high as 3 out of 4. And this frustrates me to no end. Or maybe instead of B1, we have a SV ADC with a sum total of 40 ranked games and only 15 of which are ADC, and of those ADC games he/she only won 6.
Team 1: SV +300 ranked games 50% (Losing streak) SIV + 500 ranked games 49% WR SV + 375 ranked games 52% WR B1 + 11 ranked games (with no more then 2 or 3 matches per champ played) 58% WR SV + 500 ranked games 52% WR
Team 1: SV +300 ranked games 52% WR SV + 500 ranked games 52% WR SV + 375 ranked games 52% WR SV + 121 ranked games ( Losing Streak) SV + 500 ranked games, ( Losing Streak)
