Matchmaking IS F*&%ED in Season 3


(zenious@hotmail.co.uk) #1

In Season 3 Matchmaking is beyond a joke!!!

I have had games where in a single queue my team of 2 silver agents and 3 lower bronze players were matched with a pre-made FULL Clan team of gold players.

Then there are EXTRA joyous games like one which was over within 4 minutes and the second half was a straight spawn camp 4 Gold and one Cobalt Vs 4 silver and one UN-RANKED

This is ridiculous!
How can this happen ?
What is the point of having divisions in Ranked ?
If you are just going to match up Full teams from different divisions, then why have Divisions AT ALL ?

What is the point ? how can you climb the ladder with crap like this. The whole point in having divisions is to play with people in the same skill bracket or play better and climb the ladder.

Lately Season play has been less climbing skill ladders and feels more like playing snakes and ladders. Play one or two games within your bracket climb a little, then one or two stupid bracket miss-matching games or 4v5/3v5 games and slide right back down again.

Its extremely frustrating to the point where I think I’m going to stop playing all together which is a shame because I really love DB.

I think since they change the matchmaking system where solo/duo pool will face against another solo/duo enemy, and full party vs full party, to “better faster matchmaking system”, if timer reach 4 minutes and no match was found (maximum skill range reached), then imbalance must happen in order to make faster queue time.
Last season in Asia is like 15mins+ of waiting time and now is less than 5mins, and I face the full party enemy like 2 times (update: 5 times in my first 15 match) and we got spawncamped.

Yup that seems to be what has happened they did away with the solo/team queues and mix them together. Also at the same time they did the same with the divisions too.
All in the name of shorter queue times which is stupid because people would be more pissed about getting spawn camped every game than waiting an extra 5 minutes for a well balanced game I think.

I agree to play with slightly better players. That way I will learn a be a petter player after every match. But I do not agree to situation when I don’t even stand a chance against others. It’s ridic
