My only loss in my last 11 games was due to having a 4 stack on my team. My all time record when playing with stacks of more than 3 is probably 1-100.
I could tell as soon as it started because they all had stupid names and they all picked Moira as their only ban. They also all picked Moira as a preferred hero.
Also why is my “winning trend” over when I’ve won 10 out of my last 11 games? I swear losing trend would have already kicked in after 4 or 5 losses in a row.
Why is that?
Are you saying all of them are just throwing?
Neither are based on wins/loses in a row. They are both based on last X matches.
Not sure but there is always another stack on the enemy team that is way better than the one I get. I just don’t want to play with or against them. The full solo queue games are almost always much better quality.
Mine finally kicked in after 1 more win. Upon checking again I had actually lost 2 games so I needed to go 11-2.
Since that I’ve now won 4 more straight games with the bonus so 15-2 and 2 wins away from diamond. Therefore I am predicting 1 more win followed by a 20 game loss streak.
It seems to be statistically impossible for this to happen every time, doesn’t it?
Maybe stop predicting that.
It will help you,
Not if it’s by design
Should I predict the sun will not rise tomorrow too?
Why would this be designed?
Coming after you personally?
Why not the solo-player in the other team?
You can do what you want, but I wouldn’t put any money on this one.
(Except you live near the north-pole I guess…)
But the game is not out to get you (or anyone).

You’re just working against yourself.
I often wonder myself. My only theory is the game knows I am the better solo player, therefore I get the worse stack to make it “fair”. Except that games are decided by the better stack, not the better solo player.
Not understanding your own conspiracy might be a sign there is something wrong with it…
Yea it actually went loss win loss loss win win win win. Now I’m back in diamond again.
I’m probably getting chat banned though because I cussed out a Bap and threatened to throw his game. Which I kinda did just not really intentionally. (That was in the 3rd loss in the above sequence)
I don’t even know how to respond to that.
Sorry but it has been proven Activision Blizzard uses an algorithm in their games to increase engagement. This includes a forced 50/50 win/loss and other sh*tty mechanics. Most clear of these are the loss streaks to force you down in ranks in ranked modes and make your climbing harder (than if it was purely random teams vs same rank people) to ensure you play more.
They literally have a patent for this sh*t and it has been proven to be used in CoD, Heartstone, Hearthstone - Battlegrounds, Overwatch and almost every other game they running, though I admit in Hearthstone its harder to rig matches since its 1v1 and there are usually 1-3 winning deck builds each season. In other games its easier since you control the players (who plays vs who) and what cards they get (Hearthstone - Battlegrounds).
Where was this ever proven for Overwatch?
I’d really like to see this proof.
Also:
This already does not fit together.
Loss streaks are the worst thing ever for engagement.
I played some solo open queue last night. Got matched with a 5 stack.
Game was fine. Don’t see what the issue is.
It’s like you don’t even know how to use a search function in this forum or you are just too r*tarded to not to be able to search the web yourself…
And sad to see you have no concept of human psychology to understand how losing / winning streaks affect them… Its not like gamblers stops playing just because they lost a few times, you know…
I’ve been here some time, and I’ve never seen any “proof” of any of this.
Unless you count some dudes whining as “proof”.
Fortunately, I don’t have to either!
As it was already researched for me:

No need for being so angry little boy.
It has not been proven anywhere. They do not force 50/50 on anyone either.
It seems to affect you quite badly.
Such anger and hate when they get called out. Such an easy argument win for me again. Thanks for making me laugh kiddo 
Is that why you didn’t give an actual answer to any of my points… again?
Sure.

You’ve only won yourself over by getting so upset over nothing.
