Forum Discussion
@Balladalidila see my point is i dont want to play against ppl who are clearly better than me. thats why games usualy implement SKILL based matchmaking. its ok if you got your 4k 20bombs in bot lobbys but i havent got mine and i dont get bot lobbys. i have to play against pred and masters who already got both of the badges and i don't get a chance to farm it.
if you are not worthy to have a 4k badge if you cant do it in pred lobbys you are not worthy to play against preds!
yes i know i am bad and thats why i complain because i still end up playing against the 'best' of the world somehow.
also what server do you play on and whats your rank balla?
I didnt miss your point at all. I understand that you think you should be in easier lobbies where fewer players are much better than you, so you have a fair chance to get 20kill and 4k banners. But that is exactly what I was arguing against. 20kills and 4k banners, earned without smurfing in low tier ranked, ARE for those who are high elo players, i.e masters, preds and some lucky or very persistent diamonds. My point is that those banners would mean nothing if the matchmaking was designed to allow EVERY player at EVERY skill level a fair chance of getting them, which pretty much is what you are requesting.
I play on EU, usually Frankfurt datacenter, and I peaked at master a couple of splits ago but usually a typical Diamond3+ player. I am the kind of player that easily can get Diamond4 as solo in just a couple of gaming sessions, but really needed 2 good premades with alot of strategy, teamplay and grinding to get out of Diamond. I also have several 4k banners and 3k banners at almost all legends that dont have 4k.
One of your argument, or rather complains, was that you always get trash teammates and therefore stood without chance of getting those banners... This is the game when I got my most recent 4k. As you can see, my teammates were ALSO useless, which they are in 9/10 of my solo matches. In 9/10 of my matches, I am teamed with teammates who cant win a single 1v1. If I want them to survive, I have to carry them in every fight and be the damage dealer. I NEVER get carried to a win in pubs. In almost every of my wins, I do 2x dmg than BOTH my random teammates together. So I am in the exact same situation as you, with the only difference that I reached a certain skill level that allows me to earn those banner.
I think your argument is equivalent to saying: Can I get bot lobbies in ranked so I can reach Predator? Predator rank, which is something that I NEVER will achieve, just aswell as 4k 20 kill banners, are just not available for everyone unless they climb the skill ladder to required skill. I wouldnt call my lobbies "bot lobbies" but they are easy, approx. equivalent to gold ranked lobbies with a handful of preds/masters/diamonds here and there. Those who are better than me will have an even easier time and for them, pubs might feel like "bot lobbies". And there you have it. Its all about the RELATIVE term of skill and climbing the skill ladder (or accept and be content where you are which I am)
@Balladalidila ok seems like you are clearly better than me so why do your matches feel like gold elo with a few preds while half of my lobby has legitimate masters and pred divetrails + a few diamonds?
i think the badges are the only reason to play right now they are just a nice little thing everybody should be able to grind for just like every other badge. i think what really seperates the very good players (like popular streamers) from the rest is the fact that they can get multiple of those matches every day.
i just want a fair chance so i can get one maybe once a week so i can grind all the badges for all legends!
Do your lobby really have half pred/master/diamond trails when playing solo? What server are you playin on? I can have lobbies like that when I play full with my premade 3-stack squad with two expreds/exmasters friends and we play very well. But when I play solo, my lobbies are usually like gold with a 10-15 Diamond-to-Pred including us, and I have 2.4 overall K/D. If you have both lower peak rank and lower K/D than me, I find it very strange if you would have harder casual solo lobbies.
I honestly think you kinda forget that skill is relative. A silver player will get melted by a Platinum player, and a Platinum player might get melted by me just as I get melted by some preds sometimes. So when you think those high elo streamers get bot lobbies, its really the same lobbies and you and I, only that their skill is so high that they steam roll everything. Guys like Imperialhall smurfs in Predator games so OFC they will steam roll everyone and everything in solo pubs.
But anyways; Ofc I understand that everyone would want the best badges but the reason why they are the best is because they are the hardest to get. Would you really feel that good about them if you knew you were "handicapped" and matched with easier opponents to get them? I know I dont. I have several 20 kills and 4k damage badges also on my smurfs but I dont even wear them because I think that would just be pathetic and embarrassing since I got them when I was smurfing.
i just want them so i can't complain about versing better players (and because i like to unlock stuff) lol
the past 2 days have been ok with only 6-10 pred and master squads but before that i had rounds with 2 normals 2 diamond 2 masters and the rest preds.
i also play on frankfurt but when i play with mates the lowest divetrail is diamond and its 80% 3stack masters and preds. (our highest rank was diamond) and they hardly play anymore because of that.
my k/d is only like 1.3- 1.4 but my games are slowly getting easier the more i rage quit and/or take a few days break from the game
