Algorithmic Handicapping (MMR) is Wrong for Overwatch

No theyre all different games.

So im supposed to be a same rank player for every hero in the game?

? Wut face now? No if you mean that you should be as good with every hero. How does that have anything to do with the fact that in the first pic what I said could have increased the chance of you winning instead of staying on hog farming medals? Your a hog one trick? ps. i can see ur not hog one trick

No im not a hog one trick I never stated that but if ur arguing that every player in the game should simply flex to fill vital roles then i agree. But the reality of it is that the majority of the player base doesnt do this. Also flexing does not increase ur chances of winning I tried it and completely failed. The best way imo is to learn a handful of hereos from every role.

Im not saying every player should flex. But your just one more stubborn player who goes 6 dps instead of trying to form a comp? I said you would prolly had much better chance if you went a main healer instead of padding medals on hog. But its up to you, I see lots of ppl like you on ladder and I do not respect them.

There is no better chance when the team itself in game is frankly not a team.

Sure why not. Stay stubborn and play every game what you want and post images on forums how others should have flexed, but not you.

I never stated i dont flex that is what you assumed

So basically you do flexing but you decided to take a example where you didnt and you just padded medals?

Im posting those images to show that ow comp “matchmaker” is not really a matchmaker

What am i supposed to here?:

Dear diary. Today in my match we didnt have healer so I took a tank.

While there pics of me healing that i posted you seem to not care to give them a look.

Whether or not u actually want to look doesnt matter now since im pointing out that matchmaker is flawed. Regardless if i didnt went healer in all those pics it doesnt fix the root issue which is the matchmaker itself.

I dont understand pics of u being stubborn as everyone else means the mm is flawed. Isnt it just good that they pack people who cant flex all in 1 game?

Really so the matchmaker shouldnt take account what all 6 players in a team mostly play?

Just match 6 players who have the same sr/mmr and throw them together?

Again how would me those games where i didnt play healer change the outcome?

If ur going to say “it increases ur chances” then at the same time your confirming overwatch comp is not a mode where the community learns how to play the game but rather how to increase their chances in a mode that is essentially glorified quickplay.

So if u wanna play something else than ur most played? Are you forced to play only 1 char now?

I dont understand your questions elaborate.

No but the matchmaker should atleast match players with similar sr/mmr while taking into account that hey maybe all these players with similar sr/mmr play only dps/tank/heal and i shouldnt maybe match em base on that.
