Force lose streaks stronger than ever

Win two games
the next 3-4 in consecutive

Game 1 -Insta lock 5 dps, nobody in voice chat
Game 2 - Some Quit because we lost the first point
Game 3 - Solo players on diamond+1 Master vs six stack of Master/GM.
Game 4 - See game 3 , same players.

Is literally impossible to climb on this season, the MM puts you on games that you gonna lose no matter how good you are.

Use LFG then? Its not that bad

i play high plat/diamond every season. this season, i had a 23 match loss streak. stayed in low gold a few days. then suddenly BAM! had a 13 match win streak. I dont know why the matches always seem to come in streaks like this, and typically its a steamroll. super easy, or impossible to win.

It doesn’t exist. The system doesn’t control people’s choices.

yes it does, see blizzard has a system if u win too much Blizzard puts players with lose streaks on your team and players with winstreaks on the other team. Its an actual joke

there is no forced lose streak, you just climbed into an elo that you are not good enough for so you drop down again

the rest is confirmation bias

I got a win with an amazing team, the next game I got a guy who only plays torbjorn

WON that

next game got a 4 man who all wanted to play DPS

WON that

next game got a 5 man who could not land a shot for the life of them

I WON THAT

it’s not always clear how matchmaking works but you gotta stick with who ever is given to you

(oh yeah then I lost like 6 in a row but that’s besides the point)

never heard bigger bs in my life LOL

Game 1: Doesn’t happen in LFG, as long as you use proper settings.
Game 2: Much, much less common to have rage quitters in LFG.
Game 3: This sort of thing might happen, but if you are the serious underdog, you will lose less SR on a loss, and gain more SR on a win.
Game 4: Repeat matches happen more in LFG, especially if you are in a region/platform/rank with not many groups.

On all the accounts that I own, I’m on a winstreak. Forced losses are NOT a thing. Flip a coin. Sometimes it’s head, sometimes it’s tails. Sometimes, 5 times tails.

Btw. Screens or it didn’t happen.

that’s funny, you think me saying that blizzard is not rigging your games is the biggest bs you heard in your life.

how???

so why do you think blizzard is after you especially? because if it were true for everyone nobody would ever climb SR ever. so blizz must only rig some games. why would they choose you?

also the matchmaker doesn’t remember past games, it takes your stats, at the very moment you press “queue” and finds people of similar stats which leads to a calculated probability of winning the game as close to 50% as possible.

you know what that means?

the teams are even and either one could win. and ideally it is you making the difference.

it’s the exact opposite of what you believe it is.

Their MatchMaking goal isn’t to get as close to 50% as possible, it is to keep your SR as close to your MMR as possible. If your SR is above your MMR you will get placed into matches that have a closer to a 40% chance to win than 50%…if your MMR is higher than your SR you will get matches that are closer to 60% chance to win…if you don’t think this occurs NOR has any effect on your game play experience you’re oblivious…

If the goal was to create games with as close to 50% win chance for each team you’d see much less stomps…at lower ranks its generally a one sided game.

Even if the teams are matched 50/50, stomps will still happen. Fair team doesn’t always mean a close game.

Momentum is a huge part of overwatch so rolling over a team can happen easily.

It doesnt exist (20 characters)

Yet you completely dismiss the fact match making tolerance for a predicted outcome is 20%…

Aimbot calvin said it perfectly in his stream yesterday.

“I shouldn’t be placed in games against players I COULDN’T QUEUE WITH due to the SR difference (>500 in gm/top 500)”

…yet hes 4500 being thrown in games with 3800 players on his team at times as if that isn’t an attempt to keep people from hitting or exceeding 5k…

THERE IS A REASON THE LIMIT IS 5k AND NO ONE COMES CLOSES TO PASSING OR MAINTAINING 5K…FORCED LOSSES LOL

and you get more SR for winning a 40% match and gain less for winning a 60% one

sorry that destroys your whole point

and lower rank games are more onesided because lower ranks are highly inconsistent in their skill

No it doesn’t, you dismiss so much by stating something so simple. Their algorithm literally REQUIRES forced loses or HIGHLY predicted losses to maintain their 5k SR cap…people are so oblivious I can’t even…a SR cap destroys YOUR whole point

People have hit 5000 SR before… And no one hits it these days because at that SR you lose more than you gain.

There’s not enough players at that SR to always have completely balanced games.

These problems do not affect anyone lower SR though.

People have hit 5000 sr sure. Please show me the long list of those players… You still remain oblivious to the fact it is a CEILING and to keep really good players from exceeding it they are thrown into matches with very low chances of winning…if you can’t see how that SAME algorithm is applied universally in the 40%-60% tolerance for predicted outcome then you must have an IQ below room temperature. I am done trying to explain the alphabet to you.

Or… or… and I’m just spitballing here… You’re looking for an excuse as to why you can’t climb to GM and it’s easier to say that a system is holding you down than to admit it’s your own skill holding you down.

Food for thought.
