Matchmaker flaw

Team 1:
4x one trick mercy player 3700sr
1x tank player 3700sr
1x dps player 3700sr

Team 2:
2x support mains 3700sr
2x tank mains 3700sr
2x dps mains 3700sr

and matchmaker thinks this game is %50-%50.

other example:

Team 1:
6x dps mains 3700sr

Team 2:
2x support mains 3700sr
2x tank mains 3700sr
2x dps mains 3700sr

Is this fair ?

Matchmaker logic has flaws. These are not rare situations. I get these type of games all day.

Matchmaker gives me 5 dps main. Everybody instalocks their heroes. Some of them throws because everybody dps main and matchmaker tells me your winning chance is %50 you will lose 25sr if you lose the match.

I just played 7 match. 2 games was normal. I win that 2 game with %60+ kill part. 1 game was free win. Enemy played 5 dps. Other 4 games was free lose. Everybody instalock dps. I just controlled 2 games. I did good and i deserve win. Enemy team tried hard. Other 5 games i did nothing. Uncontrollable games. I just wait for end because i cant leave match.

Matchmaking sites such as tinder and eharmony actually benefit from matching you with the wrong people. Because if they matched you with the “right” people you wouldn’t need to use their product therefore creating less revenue for them

when you join again games like this, ask all the players their streak/last games results and add them in those stats

I don’t see the problem it’s giving the mercy 1 tricks the options of learn new heroes and stay in masters or git out. Same with the second one. Learn to flex or get out

But i dont get fair match. I lose because of matchmaker. Not because im bad or not because im not belong to this sr. Mercy main guy played Tracer. Can you feel my pain :slight_smile:

In theory matchmaker gives you %50-%50 game but this is proof it not gives you fair game. Matchmaker thinks its %50-%50 but in reality its not.

Typical example of a game you are “meant to lose” as a part of gamifying your ladder climbing experience. Were these games followed by a few wins perhaps?

Nope braindead teams coming constantly. If they leave me tank position i can carry sometimes but generally i have to play healer and team doesnt even group up lol. I laugh so hard how dumb my team. My best hero Moira and i have %60+ winrate with her. My season 9 winrate %30 with her lol. Unbelievable things happening. Account doomed. Random and meaningless matches.

edit:

Yeah 3 lose more.
1- Everybody picked dps others throwed the game.
2- Mercy main played dps and did nothing.
3- One guy throw because of lose streak.

What did i just played ? 3 free lose. Master tier games unplayable. We need role select desperately. Its waste of time. I play for nothing. Keep losing for nothing. Wake up Jeff. Your game sucks. Are you guys really playing competitive ? This game shouldnt be like this. Somethings wrong. You guys really bad developers. Im not exaggerated here. If i play 10 games more than 5 games are like this.
