After a 600 SR Losing Streak I Quit the Game

yea and even then soft or hard people will still find a way to get back to bronze or wherever they were and then nothing has changed i think thats why they also dont do that.

Well to add some backstory to it.

I started out at bronze-silver borderline, got some luck streak and decent matches so i reached up to 1960. I was playing there for a good 2 weaks going with the usual 1win, 1lose circle what identifies that you are stuck in your rank because you cant improve but not bad enough to fall down.
After that suddenly i was hit by a lose streak what hasnt ended till i reached 900 sr.

Even if you call it skill fluctuation, this is still absurd and i had no intentions to get ranked even lower than i was at my first season in 2016 in the middle of a season in 2018.

Pretty muchā€¦ But Blizzard doesnā€™t even discuss it or even explain why they donā€™t want to do itā€¦ Their communication with their playerbase was reduced to: Here are our new events and skins, these are the balance and PTR changes and a rare developer update every quarter. But itā€™s just thatā€¦ updates thereā€™s no discussion anymore.

i was wondering about the trios lately. lost like 12 games in a row because i got matched to themā€¦

Everything Blizzard has ever said about matchmaking is linked in the references section of the opening post. Itā€™s really extensive.

They used to be pretty active here, but unfortunately this forum in particular has become too immature and would rather participate in Redditā€™s Overwatch communities.

Reddit, the unofficial online cesspool as opposed to the official one.

600 points is small-time. Weā€™ve all quit multiple times. Overwatch is a coin-flip game where half of the time, the games are great and thereā€™s nothing like it, and the other side of the coinā€¦ Well, yā€™know.

At this point I go in expecting to lose lol. There is to comp in this game anymore, itā€™s just another COD and all they can do is release one hero and one map at a time while changing meta. BORING. Donā€™t rely on SR anymore. It doesnā€™t do justice. Just play as if you are playing COD. Lol

This is such a good analogy for Blizzardā€™s treatment of comp in general.

Play cheap heroes youā€™ll gain your SR back in no time. Hanzo, Widow, Mei, Sombra. Get good at them and youā€™ll tilt the other teams into oblivion. I gained 800sr back by playing Moira alone because people have too much pride and donā€™t want to switch to D.va. Won 15 games in a row. First loss was to a comp with d.va. Play cheap win SR EZ game EZ life.

my boy, youā€™ve felt nothing. Iā€™ve gone through a drop double that with what I can guarantee you are equally horrifying matches. Not one win. Not one good match. I know where youā€™re at, take a break, get back at it when youā€™re ready. I went from mid masters to almost gold, it happens sometimes. I get it.

Id subscribe to that!
