Out of every 10 games I play, maybe one of them is a close, even game where everyone is on roughly the same skill level - and that’s probably me being generous.
Almost every game has people on either team not just losing their lane but going something like 0-17. I know it’s early alpha and has had a huge influx of players recently so maybe it’s to be expected to some extent, but even back in my Dota days matchmaking was never this bad. This is like, public WC3 Dota 1 lobbies level.
How are you guys finding it? Anyone break through the MMR barrier into a point where you’re getting consistently good games? How long did it take, and what MMR? (you can check here
It’s not just you, according to the developer on discord the MMR system isn’t finished yet and isn’t working properly. There’s usually a skill gap in matches and it’s pretty common to see people that are clearly better than everyone else and rack up 20+ kills.
It hasn’t been too bad on my end, most of my games don’t feel too unfair. Sometimes though a game is just over 20 minutes in due to snowballing. I also did feel like games got better the more I played so it might be that it evens out over time.
I’m having a great time. I’m def low level, but I learn something every game. On the shit games with griefers or some cheese ass enemy comp, i just pick a thing to practice and I dont worry about winning as much.
I suck at the game but I still enjoy it.
I actually love playing against higher tier players and not having skill based match making. It’s how a grew up playing games and it refreshing running up against cracked players. It’s also how I learn to play better.
For instance I had a match last night that lasted 41 minutes. A large part of it was that I was so out matched I just pushed the objective. The other team had to keep running back to defend the base. Died 24 times but we won and I did my part. I also know I should never play Abrams. I suck at Abrams.
A lot of the games I’ve played have had DC’s, afk, people treating it like an fps and feeding a lane, and always a few consistent heroes.
I’m apparently in the top 6% and it really doesn’t feel like it. Either the MMR system isn’t very good or there are a ton of people still learning.

How do you know? How would I find out?
OP provided a link to and I found my profile on there.
Theres no way youre having that bad of matchmaking. Almost every game im in the matches can go either way. I found that the match is easily more likely to go either way than what you might find in LoL, smite, etc.
I barely started playing the game and havent had what youre experiencing.
Have you considered that maybe you just need more time to learn the game? Maybe you understand the game but perhaps need to be more diligent on changing up your plays and adapting to each unique match?

so true.
wtf, someone already has 803 games played?!
Sounds like someone needs to get good
But seriously, it’s brand new dog, give the devs a chance to level everything out, the bots that Valve have coded can barely play the game, it’s not crazy to think that people are going to have a hard time adapting

Toxic shit yo.
