Matchmaking problem honestly gonna kill the game

[бургер]

just had 10 games losestreak. It was okay before, valve, what is so hard to revert to old beginner/medium/pro lobbies?

People got better at the game with time. (Crazy)
SBMM in a game with so many diverse components is a challenge. Its not a proper release yet so give them time.

I'm not sure this is entirely the case. Seems like it lately they've widened the mmr pool for players.

Did they break something just recently? I tried duoing with a friend and for three games in a row we performed as well as or better than most of the other team with 2-3 teammates getting crushed in lane, not farming, and taking 4v1 fights over and over. The only time we could feel like we were contributing was laning phase and then it felt like a 2 or 3v6.

I heard they made the mmr scores more parabolic. Meaning the ranks are more flattened out now.

It used to be fine but now it kinda sucks, especially for ranked where unranked or low ranked are pitted against high rank people, not kidding one game was like we had a tier 3 or 4 against practically an entire team of tier 5 ranked people.

Network stability has also taken a massive hit in the last few weeks. Melee attacks hitting from far away, shots not registering when they should, people still moving after I stun them. Makes the whole game feel terrible.

It seems like that because the playerbase has shrunk significantly. The matchmaker is having a harder time placing you in balanced games because there are less players at your level in the queue - particularly if you are one of these people who still insists on maining popular heroes like Haze and never learning anything else.
