Re: I can't believe this "1 Experienced 2 Newbies" matchmaking is still a thing?
@bosourd
This is 95% of matches anymore. Has been for... years now? It used to irritate me, but in the rare matches with "equal" skill teammates I still end up leaving them on their own and they still end up dead early game. Sure, they do more damage and maybe even get a kill, but their entire mindset is "attack moving objects until kill or die." The skill level may be different but the mindset is still the same. There are no sensible people left in this game regardless of skill. And I've finally got to a place in my head where this is freeing. I can't really help them so I stop trying and stop feeling bad for what they do to themselves, and then I can get on with doing what I CAN do in a match - gear up, stay alive, position carefully, and patiently wait for the right place to come together with the right time.
