I know exactly how you feel and before the âit is all randomâ and âgit gudâ crows flock in to pick on your body: Comp is rigged and forces some to lose all the time and others to win all the time in order to incite 50 percent of the community.
Why, you may ask?
Divide et impera.
Bye
yes. i understand. BUT WHY 30 GAMES IN A ROW?
Cause levels doesnt matter with the skill or the rank you have.

Again, level doesnât equal skill.
But level does equal knowledge, and knowledge equals some or what skills.
Go 1v1 someone lvl 1600 golden banner and you lvl 50 see the results.
Because lvl ? Do you know how many bronze accounts are out there where players have gold or plat accounts too?

Didnt I just said this?
Maybe you should try to learn how to answer & ping to right person mate.
Because you are the 500th person I see who comments âlvl doesnât equal skillâ and doesnât add âlvl does equal knowledgeâ.
Oh really huh?
Levels literally doesnt mean anything buddy. You seriously need to realize that.
(You can be low level player & have great aim but awful gamesense, etc and you can be high level player & have trash aim but great gamesense & such)
So I really dont know why you do care about levels so much like this 1 guy is aswell.

Although I think 30 is an exaggerated number, if you flip a coin enough times you will eventually get 30 heads in a row.

because youâre not a team player and probably have bad engagements

i have 1700+ wins in 700 hours on my main thatâs diamond to high gm over all the seasons (2700+ wins if u count the bit of qp i play)âŚ
I 100000000% agree with you my friend. Iâm just glad someone else has a brain to notice it.
The better you play or bigger win streak you go on, the more likely your teammates will be outright incompetent VS smurf gods, great teamwork, amazing counter play. All while your team stays on the same heals, tanks, dps the whole time⌠even if you start to carry their team will easily pick out your carry and stagger your team into oblivion.
if you tell me its something other than artificial manipulation. I just find it impossible to believe⌠something like saying there is no life or impossible to find life anywhere but earth⌠nope just not gonna work ⌠sorry guys but i believe in conspiracys

Iâve met silver and gold borders that arenât better than newbies
That said obviously they know the game more than a COMPLETE newbie
Newbie accounts are scarier to me, they are more likely to be smurfs or aimbots.
People who yell rigged mm are just looking for something to blame. Like it makes no sense as it literally accomplishes nothing good for the players or the developers. The system like almost all mm is based off the same principles weâve been using to rate skill in zero-sum games since the 70âs with the Elo system in chess.
If you win you gain points, if you lose you lose points. The more expected the win/loss the less you gain/lose and the more unexpected the more you gain/lose. If you are ranked too low youâll win more than expected and rise, if ranked too high youâll lose more than expected and drop, all until your reach equilibrium. In the case of a matchmaker it does this but also restricts the level of players competing to within certain bounds. There is NO NEED to rig anything, there is NO REASON to rig anything, the is NO EVIDENCE anything is rigged, there is only people frustrated looking for something to pin that frustration on.

Meh Iâm a believer. Felt free winning streaks and losing streaks too many times not to plus Iâve never played any other game where so many people report the same phenomenon (forced lose streak). I know you will climb so long as you are better but itâs harder than it needs to be in this game and thatâs because of the purposely lop sided games you are given when your outdoing your rank several games in a row.
When you are on a win streak or lose streak you will eventually face harder opponents or easier opponents respectively. The longer a win streak goes on the more likely you are to lose as you will be rated higher and higher. People assume the game is giving you worse teammates, but itâs not, itâs assuming you are better and fitting you in under that assumption. Itâs balancing under the assumption that you are better as you keep winning. If you are better than your old rank youâll eventually reach equilibrium and start losing about half your matches. If you had a lucky streak or were playing better than usual eventually youâll be overrated and the matchmaker will put you into matches it thinks are good but are more lopsided than expected because you are worse than it thinks.
But really important to understand here is that there will ALWAYS be inconsistencies and volatility that make it somewhat inaccurate. Players themselves are not consistent and so their rating will never be perfectly accurate to how they are performing at that time. The game is 6v6 so you have 11 other players who have influence on whether you win or lose any games making the data noisy and requiring more games to settle. The game is very synergy and teamwork oriented making it so that different groupings of players with the same skill will have inconsistent performance depending on how well each group plays together. You have balance and meta changes that make current data stale very quickly as peoples best and worst heroes get nerfed and buffed. You have people with different understanding of the game making different assumptions about how things should and will play out.
Basically, there is a lot of noise. Win and loss streaks are a natural thing to happen, and the system with all the noise makes them not that uncommon. The system also makes it so they become more and more likely to come to an end as time goes on because the system will rate the player higher and higher or lower and lower as they continue a streak, eventually reaching equilibrium.

If those ânewbiesâ are in the same rank as you itâs because they are playing just as well as you. Time played is not equal to skill
