Arena matchmaking
What happened to the sweaty games that would often result in 5-3 or sudden death? It's either 3-0, 3-1 or 0-3,1-3. Winning half the game I play and losing the other half isn't the definition of 'fun'...

@BaldWraithSimp That has been my experience most of the time with randoms. Welcome to the club.
After playing Arenas exclusively for over 28 hours, I have come to the conclusion that Arena suck. At least keeping in mind the crappy hidden 'MMR' they have, you are left with nothing but cheap, hollow and lifeless victories against sub-par opponents. And when you do get a team that's around your skillset, the game gives you the same sub level 100 teammates that have zero clue as to what they are doing. Already said above, either a 3-0,3-1 win or 0-3, 1-3 loss.
And going back to BR, you realize that it had made you worse than you were. Ofc you will bounce back to your original skill eventually, but first few hours of BR will be just pain and suffering.
Enjoyed it for the first week but now it's back to crappy MMR. Don't play only Arena, it's not any good in its current state. I would rather get third partied into oblivion.
@xKatieRKhaosx I am not optimistic about Ranked, but I guess we will see.

@BaldWraithSimpArenas has serious potential, especially for competitive people with friends.
I prefer a mixture of games tho.
- @hayhor I just hope it doesn't turn into crapfest that Platinum IV is. And leaked version only suggests a 'badge' as reward lol
'tier demotion protection' is the pinnacle of stupidity, proposed by some Bronze tier dev. I wouldn't be surprised if they put the same crappy system in Arena ranked.
