Kuma.1503 Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Duo with a partner. Less chance of an afk, thrower or wintrader on your team. And you have one person you can rely on to help you focus targets or plus fights. Dont queue if you get 3 or more blowout losses in a row. Theres a high chance of getting the same people again. If the blowout matches are due to match rigging, its a coinflip of whether you're on the winning or losing side. If you notice sketchy behavior, add the suspe ted player(s) to your FL and add a note next to their name so you can avoid matching with them. Now that you're set up to have (hopefully) legitimate matches, pick one or two classes and learn their ins and outs. Duel on them. Learn their matchups. Practice your combos on golems until they're second nature. Ranked is a bit of a fiesta right now, but hopefully this helps. Good luck. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why this happens and why it happens so often in gold tier, I don't know. Its almost as bad as no one going home in bronze/silver tier. One thing I've noticed lately is the game loves to put us in the exact same teams again and again (due to low population from the festival?). It maybe moves one player to the other team and that's about it. At least randomise it somewhat, geez.

shion.2084 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 (edited) Yeah I find gold 3 a crap shoot. I’ll have like 8 wins I. A row followed by a ridonculous streak of losses. Nothing to do but not take it seriously. Slightly better odds of random ing up if you have a partner. Then you get stuck in plat 1 🙂 Edited December 26, 2021 by shion.2084 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shion.2084 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 This season I had such a ridiculous streak of losses I ended up silver. I literally had to apologize to folks about the suck match making when I’d slaughter them in pairs. It actually made me feel like a super star for a bit… but my play hit sloppy. simeone hate whispered me to go back to play and leave him alone 🙂 point is the loss streak was unstoppable…. Nothing could touch me… I took 4 high scores a game and still loss after loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your team has no teamfight potential and the other team has core guard, dh and a necro mid fights are lost, so going far is the better option. If you don't wanna to play with the same ppl over and over you gotta wait 5 mins after match to q up again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing is just flawed, but its only super noticeable at gold 3+, I think. This is also a big part of why bots plague these tiers because the game thinks they're good because of carries, and doesn't push them down.

This is also a big part of why bots plague these tiers because the game thinks they're good because of carries, and doesn't push them down. Many competitive games are built on having a psychological "out" on which to blame failure. For example, strategy card games usually include some element of randomness so that wins can be attributed to skill, and losses to luck. GW2 and similar team games do this by having a team small enough to take personal credit for a win, but large enough to blame teammates for a loss. I don't buy the "hard stuck" argument. Matchmaking is (unless it's being gamed) random, so in theory you end up with bots or bad players the same % of time as everyone else. It's just that the players that belong in higher tiers will carry a little harder and maybe win some games that lesser players would give up on.

At least in theory, I played enough games to know that developers like putting their insanity into making matchmaking for some reason lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shion.2084 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 That’s the thing with stats… an average is for the average player… which doesn’t exist. Nothing stops you from rolling 1 on a die 5 times in a row. And if you have enough population folks are going to. Things average out on average… not in the specific unless you’ve got countless plays and endless seasons. The specific individual can just get screwed sometimes. And in fact there’s always going to be examples of that. so no things don’t average out for everyone given a limited number of games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shion.2084 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) My personal opinion is that if you rate 4 top scores and your team loses you shouldn’t be penalized. Clearly the match making that figures you’d have to carry even harder should be re-thought. it’s kind of stupid to apply mmr changes to an individual when team comp constantly changes and the other 4 players make more difference than any individual. It would make sense if you had a team of five you stuck with in a season and it was team mmr. If it’s going to be ndividual then it should be based on individual results. Which I cannot see how they’d do. One example is 4 top scores means no rank loss.

I hardly disagree with that, this season i got one account silver 3 and the other g1 after placements, both are g3 now, with 80%+ winrate, i remember losing just 1 match cuz i couldn't carry, all the other ones i lost it's because dude raged after getting killed 2 times and afk'd. I just added the afker to my friendlist and wait for them to get in a match before q up again. ps. the 80%+ winrate are in the after placements matches.
