@NerfMyAimPlzim talking pubs, and game after game after game i get 99% newbs, no matter my performance, time of day, queue time, ect. that would not be the case if it would be completely random.
my friend (lower KD,way lower matchcount,way lower total dmg) doesnt share the same experience and ill bet you wont either ... so im not that far off if i say : its rigged for some people !
You can still see they have bugs in the UI while summing up your K/D or DMG , some nasty rounding bugs that will make a 1.2 K/D to a 2KD and similar.
That leads me to the speculation that the MM might also have some nasty side effects due to rounding numbers the wrong way.
Either its a bug or its rigged, but in my case , it surely doesnt play out the way they described it in that infamous blogpost how the "old system" worked.
Yeah I agree with you that the matchmaking in pubs doesnt really set you up for a fair chance of winning all the matches. But how would even a matchmaking that allowed all players at all skill levels to have a fair match even work? I think its important to remeber that this is a very unforgiving game. Assume that we assign a number that represent skill, like the worst, bottiest noob is "1", the best pro is "100" and an average players, probably someone who is stuck around mid gold to Plat4, is "50". The problem is that this "100" player will easily smash a "90" player and a "50" player will get destroyed by a "60" player but easily smash a "40" player etc etc. To have a "fair" matchmaking in pubs would only work for the average player (more players in the queue).
I guess you have to look at pubs as a free for all tdm almost. You cant expect to have super fair matches in most of the games. If you want a more fair game mode, then I guess you have to play ranked which at least is better.
@NerfMyAimPlzi dont care about the enemies, i care about what i get as mates. you can put me in sweat lobbies, i dont mind the divetrail, but if so ... not teamed up with a 50 kill octane as every time !!!
Then we are back to square one; most of the attributes of a good teammate that you are wishing for has nothing to do with them being objectivly bad. You said you wanted teammates with "knowledge on how to use their legends ultimate, camping at chokepoints , fighting uphill battles, making unnecessary noise, giving up position , looting while mates are shooting , not paying attention to sound queue, ect." Most/all of those just comes down to different views how to play the game. Guess you cant demand that from randoms, ESPECIALLY not in pubs which is a casual mode. People just dont care about those things in pubs.I advice you to find premades who shares your ideas how to play the game or play ranked until you reach high elo like diamond3 where the majority of players actually take the game seriously. To expect people to "camp chokepoints, or not "making unnecessary noise" in pubs is like expecting people to give ADCs all the cs and not KS in ARAM in LoL =)
- @NerfMyAimPlz you are right in one point : i cannot demand something from another player, but i can demand a good matchmaking, even in Pubs.
Getting 99% bloody newbs is a borderline insult to me.
