Basically since Season 13 started, from very first moment I booted the game after it updated, I’m getting nothing but defeats 24/7. Like, LITERALLY nothing else. My entire match history is a wall of grey entries with DEFEAT on them. Out of 45 matches listed, I’ve won 11. Yeah, I’ve actually gone and counted them. New Hallowen mode? I’ve not won a single one and they drag like crap with minimum 3 rounds. 6 matches in a row, all defeats. Played 4 more some time later, 2 were defeats, 2 I just left because we were getting just absolutely destroyed once again.
What is this nonsense? This new season entirely crushed my will to even play anymore and it happened like someone flipped the switch with intent to make my game as miserable as possible. It’s absolutely insane what’s happening. One thing is having a random losing streak, but this is some next level idiocy. It’s literally constant 10 defeats in a row and then it’s some weird 1 (one) win in between and then again 10 defeats in a row guaranteed. And you see it after first encounter with enemy as they just wipe the floor with you and you need to sit in yet another garbage match thanks to leavers penalties. Because thanks for having them in QP Blizzard, it really improves the quality of matches so so much…
They are the ones who ruin QP and other casual modes. QP is kind of whatever, but you’d think with the new mode especially, they would implement proper matchmaking. However, allowing players of all skill levels to have fun is clearly not what they’re going for.
New season, new players going through their first mmr calculation.
Or long time absentees returning and having their mmr readjusted after the decay that happens when thry don’t play.
Hahaha, I thought it was just me Literally the same thing I noticed and it happened to me too. The moment the Season 13 launched. I did not think anything of it in the beginning plus it is QP so never cared about wins or losses there but this is getting ridiculous. I lose 5-6 matches in a row, win one then lose 10 Another thing that is happening and never happened before is my team having literally 0 kills whole game, 0 kills and I am not exaggerating while the enemy has 0 deaths and 10+ kills.
I do not mind high ranked players in QP in fact I prefer them but not all of them on the enemy team and I get a gold Tank against a Masters tank at least spread them out a little bit
I’ve seen it happen in every season. I suppose it’s more apparent during a popular season like halloween.
The mmr decay happens in both modes.
If you stop playing a role for a season and return to it in the next season, you’ll get a few easier games on that role berore your mmr catches up again.
The mmr decay was also explained by the devs several seasons ago.
this is what happens when you push all casual players away in favor of high ranking Smurfs. Match maker has no one to put you against except the smurfs or the actual high rank accounts because everyone else is leaving
I dont mind losing as long my games are somewhat fun or balanced. The game is already in a poor state but lately the match quality has gone from bad to awful.
It feels like a complete waste of time and the matchmaker is so artificial you can clearly tell its time to step away and log off.
Even the games I win feel so “cheap” and unrewarding.
Also not all defeats/wins are equal. Just because you lost alot does not mean that each game was terrible.
For example, in game A you have to push the payload, you only push it about 5% of the way there because the game was a stomp. You end up losing.
Game B you need to push the payload, but this time you push it 99% of the way there and just barley miss the final push durring overtime because the game was much more balance. Ending up as a lost.
Both games where a loss, however they were 2 extremely different games. The same can be said for wining, just because you won didnt mean the game was fun or balanced.
My personal advice is stop tracking wins and losses because OW game quality isnt really a binary system, its more a spectrum ranging from good to bad.
A loss doesnt mean a bad game, and a win doesnt mean a good game.
Simple. You didn’t buy the battlepass. So you’re being used as fodder for rigged matches in favor of those who did buy it. Someone has to lose.
The reason you’re losing so many is that there are tons of people buying the BP this season, and with it being Halloween themed, that makes sense. So there are tons of people online spending money, and blizz has to give them their dopamine shot as a reward for handing over their cash. They need to stick someone on the losing team, guess who they pick?
This was my thought. Because wait times are about the same as before for EU region, 2-3 minutes between DPS and Support, but quality has gone straight down to 666th level of hell. It can only be they are covering up lack of players by matching totally unfit players together in same match. God knows how many of them in pairs and using comms. Something most in QP just doesn’t do. Pinging is already a lot.
They’re also mixing PC, console, and switch players into the same lobbies. So the realtime match balancing (DDA) is cranked up to 11. The harder you try, the more dead weight you’re given to carry.
I feel exactly the opposite. Lately I mostly have 20 win 3 losses ratio in quick play. Some times the games feel good when you carry with 30-40 kills. But sometimes i feel I didn’t even have to do something becouse my team would win even with 1 less player.
But I’m currently playing on my second account becouse the main account isn’t working on steam for some reasons. However I always try my best but only play quick play and no comp.
