This is a question i am curious about as well.

I'm a Diamond players, not a carry force that reliably wins 3v1. Yet it seems the game quite often expects me to.

Is the percentage of new joiners really that high? Or is this by design to prevent some squads from being 3 stacks too often. If I que with 2 friends we win most games.

@Wingmannedbro maybe the game matches you based on the stats of your last used legend perhaps? Mine aren't anywhere near impressive but I've been one tricking Wraith to get atleast 1k kills before moving to someone else, and somehow the game thinks I'm capable of carrying two lv70 something players against a lobby full of premades with matching gamer tags and more kills on one legend than I have across my entire roster.

But if I play someone I've barely used for a few matches there's a good chance I'll see a diamond or pred in my team instead of the usual disappointments I get. Could just be a coincidence but idk.
