this is the most pathetic excuse of a matchmaking system i have ever witnessed

First 15-25 games seem to be forced 1500 mmr or something. 
i dont understand it. it wasnt like this the first few days after release on my main where i was 2400 cr within 8 games
now im getting 8 rating a game being 10-3
i dont care about the rating so much as the feeling that im hitting a brick wall
Youâre still in placements, just queue up.
in every other game your mmr climbs with you in placements though to put you around teammates of your skill level
why canât this game do that after 20 years?
The permanent ban, now thisâŚitâs all coming together now
just trying to make sense of it all
miraculously not being toxic in game at least
Not sure brother. I get a lot of silly stuff going on in games at all levels of MMR. I know itâs frustrating to see other people climbing to wild CRs while it seems like youâre stuck (I experience it some too) about my only advice is thereâs enough PVP options where you can pick the one you enjoy the actual gameplay most, spam queue and hope it works out in the end.
I did arena for years while not really liking it that much, so Iâm just happy to get to do BGs that give potential rewards. But Iâm sure a lot of things could be improved upon.
You understand itâs not realistic to be 2400 after 11 games right? Whatever wave you rode before, itâs gone now. It will probably take you 100s of games to reach that rating as of now(All of my characters are going through a little of the same thing as I wanted to wait to push 1600 firstâŚbig mistake)
idk i just dont understand why shuffle mmr and placement mmr of blitz are so wildly capped
bad enough i have to wait weeks for 2400 to even be possible in shuffle for more than the top 5 players of each class
like i just won another BGB so im 11-3 now and i got FOUR points for winning
the silence from blizzard doesnât help either. it seems as though they arenât even aware of it and are too busy yanking it to the race to world first
i hit 2400 pretty easily last expansion on multiple characters and glad the expansion before that, but it feels like im fighting the mmr system more than my opponents this expansion
edit: nice now my power goes out because i live in the land of the useless at my apartment complex and DC mid match
The biggest problem I have with blitz atm is low mmr always have people in pve gear and they have like 2-3mil less health with no pvp trinket

im absolutely seething that i just lost 200 cr for dcing for literally 2 minutes because the game cant place me back into it once you dc
whoever designs this game needs to be let go itâs insane how far this system has fallen between the issues of MMR and the bugs that are clear as day that they refuse to fix
you have to be basically full honor gear to even queue blitz. not even team liquid players have high enough ilvl to queue blitz. how is some low mmr playing in pve gear?
Yes for 99.8% of people than you randomly see like a screenshot I posted of people that are like 3-10 in a 2100 lobby. I think all pvp brackets could go for different sorts of mmr adjustment right now.
that will be 1 thing blizz will never figure out is MMR neve has never will

Well itâs probably hard in its current state without knowing how participation will be. They could and should be on top of it more thatâs for sure. They tend to let things hit a breaking point before they intervene(aka things get so bad people cancel sub)

they wont tend and give the love to pvp as much as they give to pve thats where there selling point is
You would think thatâs true but I see it every blitz. Inspect that guy in your group with 2-3mill health lower than everyone else and tell me hes in full pvp gear and pvp trinkets. My last game had a disc priest on my team that did 38mil healing and I had to do 789mil to win us the game. Everyone in low mmr not always in full pvp gear just inspect and u will see
that can be true, but their min ilvl is 623. it would only be bad if they didnât have trinket set. they would need to be nearly full conq with pve fillers to average over 623, which makes no sense.
Iâm 46 games deep and losing more and more now, mmr still just fluctuating between 1300s mmr and 1700s mmr now, tanked below 1600cr (and my win rate was 60-70% range even at around 30 games deep, then I just started tanking more and more, and the peak mmr I saw was maybe one 1800s match).
I just donât feel like I have enough agency in a match to affect the outcome. Pretty much all but 1-2 of those losses felt unwinnable.
Obviously people are climbing though and weâre all subject to the same system, so apparently I just really suck at bgs, or at least this iteration of them.
This struggle after having made top 20 frost mage in solo shuffle about a week ago.
Having said all that, regardless of my rating, I think blitz is fun
