140 game losing streak

You call it fair— I call it miserable.

I think the common misconception is that high skilled players want to run through lobbies and stomp. I assure you I don’t want that.

I want variance and I want choice. I don’t want every match to be as sweaty as possible— I want my ranked games to play like this. If I am a master-level player, I want to be performing better (overall, regarding win and kill ratios in ranked AND pubs) than players who are gold level regarding skill. As it stands right now, my buddy who can’t break into plat has a higher KD and win loss ratio than I do. He enjoys his pubs and I lose the high majority of mine. He is playing regular people and I am constantly playing iTemp or iStayGoated or SoarKobi—- I am clearly not better than these players but I am always in their lobby.

What’s worse? A lower skilled player occasionally running into these guys? Or me ALWAYS running into these guys?

And trust me, I have done plenty of research on the SBMM algorithm across various accounts. Players are typically dropped into lower lobbies after 40 losses. Something has changed over the last month regarding the algorithms aggressiveness and it’s hurting players who are above average.

But screw us right? We’re the minority so who cares. Matchmaking should be prioritized around maximizing The lower skilled players’ experience and making the most amount of money possible.
