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.

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

sorry that destroys your whole point

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

no you earn less SR the closer you get to 5k… it’s that simple

Groups and Matchmaking in Overwatch

The Looking for Group tool in 1.25 is an exciting new in-game feature that gives players more control over their online play experience in Overwatch. It allows players to find like-minded or similarly skilled individuals who want to work together. Groups can lead to better team play with less negativity and, ultimately, more fun. Since Overwatch is at its very core a team game, there’s really no better way to play. We’ve seen some reluctance from the community when it comes to grouping, especia…

just read it from Scott Mercer himself

There are many other reasons for the SR gained or lost after a game to differ in magnitude that have nothing to do with grouping:

• What was the quality of the enemy team and your predicted win chance? You gain more on a win if your predicted win chance was <50%. You gain less on a win if your predicted win chance was >50%.
• Are you playing consistently? New accounts or accounts that have been inactive will see larger magnitude changes both upwards and downwards. This settles back to normal as you play additional games.
• Did your 3000+ SR recently decay due to inactivity? If this happened, you’ll gain more SR on a win until you get back to your “undecayed” SR.
• Are you a Platinum-tier player or below? If you performed particularly well or worse than what is considered a typical performance during a match, then there’s a small SR modification to reflect that.
• Is your current SR really high? Your SR increases less on a win than it decreases on a loss as your SR approaches the systemic limit of 5000.

Even if you do end up in game where your predicted win rate is close to 40%, it’s important to remember that it also means that your SR will drop less when you lose, and you will gain more SR if you win.

let’s say you play 10 games in a row and all 10 games only have a predicted 40% win rate. If you win 4 of those 10 matches, your SR be the same as it started.
