I am convinced overwatch matchmaking puts you in lobbies to lose games so you have to play more. I ranked up to plat 3 two days ago and dropped to gold 3 today… The reason I say this is because I have been checking the ranks of my teammates and they’re always worse than the other teams ranks. One game I was paired with a silver 3 dps and the other team had a Diamond 5 dps. Explain how this is fair? My team got rolled.

I had similar type games today on tank.
They need to fix the queues.
One game diamond and masters dps, next game silver 5 dps?!?!?! WTF Blizz??
Oh yeah its broken as #$%^! Ehh whatever, win some you lose some, what are ya gonna do lol. Its okay dude I had B5-3 DPS and supports V high plat tank and all gold DPS support. That was fun. Engage, wait for team to get owned, disengage and back off, regroup and repeat for an entire match. Very stupid!
can confirm after the fake rank updates it has not gotten better. as if they did nothing to it. resting on my judgment they created a problem they dont know how to solve. sad to watch .
Same crap different day, WIN / LOSE / Win /LOSE Get stomped or do the stomping.
In season 1 and 2 at least I could usually predict if I would go up or down after an update. It was just a question of how many divisions. In season 3 I have been wrong about every single update on dps. Deranking when I expect to climb and vice versa.

Nahh bro we just need to quit this game until they make a true major patch because you cant rank up and all what u get mad and in some case u will break something in the house. So just play like a hour a day or quit and should be fine
I got to one game/win off masters 5 then experienced a massive losing streak over about 25 games played (my gameplay is the same). I’m diamond 5 now. Support main. Solo queuer.
I reinstalled Metroid Dread on my Switch. I put in so much time and effort to improve and rank up. What a waste of time.
I went to Open Queue and won a ton of games because the MMR didn’t have a stranglehold on my experience yet.
Since then, the game adjusted and gave me like 30 unwinnable games in a row.
On purpose. Thanks to Blizzard’s rigged, unethical matchmaker.
It’s beyond ridiculous.
I’m talking we had a Bastion who ulted on OUR TEAM.
People say it is for faster queue times but the matchmaker prioritizes creating stomps. It searches far and wide to create unfair matches. The longer queue times is because it is looking for stomps, not because it is looking for fair matches. It uses every metric and advantage/disadvantage they can find to create one-sides matches. The system will not let you into a match if you’re due to lose and there are only winnable lobbies available.

that’s why you always have in your team this player who plays even worse than my dead grandmother who never touched a computer, RIP granny, and it gives an unwinnable 4vs6 match

Same, i ranked up to D5 with like 80% win rate and now all i get when i play is Moira who can’t even dps, after first fight he didn’t even go out of spawn and then just trolled.
I’m conviced now that MM is AI who is fed with bunch of data to make predictions and it will do everything to make 50/50 match for you.
You’re fully aware that this was just about confirmed by Blizzard, yes? They have admitted that they want players to have as close to a 50% win-rate as possible, in order to help people feel like they are contributing to their matches. You get actively punished for doing good in other words.
