Your game is broken. This is the 10000th post about it

No but it was in one of the dev talks. Dont have the link on hand unf.

Ok. So it could quite conceivably be exactly the same as OW where it is just adjustments based on your MMR compared to the lobby average and such like.

It would not surprise me if it is as close as a exact copy of the system as they can get away with. Afterall (despite what the few people on the forums claim), the OW system works relatively well.

Nah, mvp and svp definitely gives you higher gains/lower losses, and thats not rank-based. And as i said, ive noticed i get rewarded less/punished more when i play worse, as it should be.

I dont personally think the ow MM works very well, but if you like it you like it.

I don’t like or dislike it, it just exists. It is just simple to prove it is fairly accurate at distributing players.

Just Googled “Marvel Rivals rank boost for MVP”… probably the wrong choice of words as all I’ve got is 20 articles about rank boosting services and 1 with tips on how to get MVP every game :rofl:

edit…

Found an answer, not sure if it is the conclusive one… “No, being named MVP in Marvel Rivals doesn’t directly give you more rank points. However, being named MVP is a way to show off your skills.”

(jesus, there are so many articles of people crying MR forces 50/50 and rigs games… I guess you can give the stupid player a new game, but they will still be stupid).

Odd, i just searched “rivals mvp more points” and got the opposite answer.

As another data point - i started playing with a couple of friends, starting our accounts at the same time. I gained more points each game and started outranking them quickly (theyre not big shooter players). Tough to justify how we started at the exact same time and got different amounts of points if there’s no performance based adjustments.

That’s Google for you lol.

I think it is safe to say, they’ve not been upfront and transparent about it.

My mmr is pretty high compared to my visual rank on my other acc, and I always get smurfs like 70% of my games are smurf infested, almost always on the enemy team. Internally my skill level is high diamond/masters, so I am getting masters smurfs almost every game, with plat teammates most games. I literally don’t even try anymore either, I avoid skill heros like the plague, and do the bare minimum or play a different game. Usually when I’m going against smurfs, I will get the same enemy smurf 3x games in a row if I hit queue right away too, never on my team, always on the enemy.

Doesnt explain the different ranking speeds between my friends and i though. And we have only played together on those accounts.

MMR of account, MMR of lobby. so on so on. Theres always a reason.

The match maker averages MMR in the lobby. The ranks are all 5 apart max, but MMR can wildly vary. The game knows it, but you dont. We aren’t allowed to know whats really going on under the hood, because it would cause mass anger among players to know what the actual truth is. The game spits in people’s faces, rigs matches from the start. It already knows whose smurfing or likely smurfing, already knows who does poorly every game, it knows who your synergized hero pool is, which players will desynergize with you, which enemy players main heroes that are your hard counters to your main hero. It knows our real ranking within a division that we can’t see, and will lock us into a visual rank that doesn’t mean anything. 1 plat game is real plat, the other is actually a diamond/masters lobby. When you see your top 500 idols climbing thru plat/dia, ever stop and think why all the players act like bots too? They’re all running out in the open, lost in the sauce, missing all their shots, playing off meta heroes. The game is trying to get them out of that rank asap before their winner queue expires. New accounts get winner queue to cause player retention. If you don’t land high elo when you’re new, you’re pretty much done. You’ll never really get past diamond, and your MMR will get higher and higher, to the point you’re constantly fighting masters/gm smurf accounts and others who got stuck in that mid-elo bell curve rank. Whats even worse, is when your MMR is high, and you LOSE against a team that averages a lower MMR, you actually lose more % than you gain. So you end up in like diamond 4 for example, gaining 19% for a win (expected), but your losses are always 20-22%. This causes derank sprees every season. Ever noticed it? Start a season, drop a few ranks, rank back up later?

K now i know youre just trolling. This statement makes no sense given the context i gave.

Youre a weird chatgpt prompt or just a weird dude.

So you’re saying the devs are geniuses who built a program that can predict anything?
Nice.

No. I am just saying, they’ve not explained it. It is quite likely the same as OW.

So the difference between what you and your friends gain is probably just down to MMR and their position relative to the lobby, and the 2 teams average MMR. Like OW.

Lol nice try.

I told you that we started at the exact same time and only play on those accounts together.

Weird chatgpt prompt that is told to ignore contradicting evidence or just weird dude

Do you only play together, and never seperately?

I don’t know why you’ve decided to be weird and hostile. If you want to be toxic. That is on you. I’d rather stick to the conversation.

Yes. Only together. Every game.

We play on different accounts for mains.

And yeah, youre chatgpt. No wonder all your accounta get banned.

Yeah. Probably just an MMR thing.

I’ve not logged into others for awhile. If they are, I’ve not seen anything.

Tilt less please.

I found this thread looking for an answer. My winrate on Rein was over 62% and I was Plat 4 this season. I just signed in to try and do the drive and I fell to Gold 3. I have about a 20% winrate this season after today because of the matchmaking and boosters wanting to get it on their alt account.

Good luck mate, last drive event I went from Tank Plat 1 all the way down to Silver 2 and I had never been that low in the 8 years playing OW. Thats when I decided to quit, tired of being used as filler for all the new and bad players just so they can have fun and do whatever they want. Im not a pro player, I cant carry healers with 1.5k heals in 15-20 minutes or 3-16 sombras 10 matches in a row.

A team is geniuses would’ve done a better job making the game fair. No, it’s just a group of many devs working together tweaking a system for nearly a whole decade. You’re sarcasm is lost
