Every game vs masters

Last three days my each 2v2 game is with atleast one master star player on ally or enemy.
I dont see much of a light any more getting out from silver 1 league.

Previously getting into gold was very easy, just needed to get like 5-3 stats… I currently has 20-12 but didnt still have uprage to gold 3… I feel i start to soon lose mass amount of games with these pros.

These guys may have 10k games meanwhile i has only below 800.

You still get matched with players around your MMR.
There are some problems with leagues assigning, a lot of players in leagues Bronze-Diamond got into Master league without necessary MMR. It doesn’t make them play better, though.

I know but most diamond players I see has been detoned from their league into gold or even silver. I see players similar stats than me with silver but they have massive amount of games players and I dont feel they belong into silver… Its wicked kind of there isnt low tier players anymore at all just splitted lowest ranked master diamond into silver gold

I made you an example of my last ladder game so you can see what type of players I face almost each game.

The first two was opponents and then there was ally and least player with gold (highest) was me.

Do you think this looks fair?

You are matched with players with gold MMR (what means they’ve been losing recently in platinum). With an exception for 3rd one.
The first one played a lot of 1v1 which is different in terms of strategies and build orders.

My Total Career Games shows 2117 total. But there are games vs AIs and others counted as well.
In fact I played 148 games total in 1v1 and just slightly more in team modes. So their 5000-7000 doesn’t exacly need to mean they played so many games in 2v2. Also some people have hundred of games played each season and stay within Bronze/Silver/Gold leagues. So that doesn’t exacly mean they are favoured. Their experience don’t give them advantage.

So you are close to Gold and promotion, that’s why you play with such players.
Is it also cost of shortened waiting times for games. Most popular game modes are 1v1 and Coop, there are not that many people playing 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4 so it’s sometimes tricky to find an opponent across all leagues.

It’s not perfect, but I wouldn’t say it’s particularly broken in this case.
There are other indications that the system doesn’t work particularly right now, though.
