Normal Matchmaking-Is it balanced?

CptCobbio·Jun 6, 2014·1 votes·52 views

I know I'm not the first to complain about matchmaking, but me and my 2 buddies that I regularly play normals with have been getting screwed by matchmaking it seems. We understand losing to players our own level, but when the other team fairly consistently has a much higher average ranking than ours the game becomes painful to play. Every now and then we'll play a game where our team actually has the higher average ranking, but either way, it seems like games are always a landslide.

The day normal draft put me, unranked, against a plat leblanc.

Yeah. It seems to get even worse when you queue with friends. Supposedly that bumps you into a harder "bracket", if you will, but we frequently end up playing against other groups of people all queued together who have a much higher top end, with me being the top on our team at gold III and the other team's top being somewhere between plat V and diamond v
