tbf addicted people are more likely to play longer if they experience severe loss, so he isn't exactly spewing 100% nonsense. pretty sure blizz just wants you to spend more $$$ ;)

The problem is that you choose to solo q in the first place. But ultimately, there’s nothing a five man team can do a team of solo q players cannot. “They cordinate and talk to one another”, guess what? Solo q’s can also do that too, they just choose not too, so that’s on them.

The most that they, and any dev for that matter do though is try to prioritize putting similar sets against one another, then set ups as close as possible, bit then solo q’s if nothing even close is available.

Not sure why would people keep playing when they have loss after loss. Why would people spend their money on a game that does that. It makes no sense.

Is there any evidence to show that sort of happen. I hear this claim often but nothing to back it up.

Keyword is addicted, and you gotta have some ups to keep people in it.
Pretty sure it is almost same concept as gambling addiction and you can find plenty of study papers for that (not for video games, but that's because I didn't look that specific direction).

Hell, it even makes me wonder why people keep gambling despite that there will be definitely more losses than wins. But then again I also do "cant sleep until i win at least once" or something like that sometimes soo... (Not in OW2, OW2 is just pain for me to do that)

This is exactly what is going on. This game is set just like a casino. Even in OW...it always was win 10 games lose 10 games- thats how gambling is- this game isn't based on skill.

nobody communicates on voice half the time nobody is in it, and you cant type while playing what you suggest is fine on paper just unrealistic in practice when you que solo and you get a bucnh of solos or an od duo or trio they are playing for themselves not a "team" but the 5 man will always be running meta comps perfect synergy on all Ultimates that clear and wipe team every time. its not fair and not fun most times you cant even leave spawn you're just stuck there walking out and dying right away or just sit and wait for timer to run out

Simple answer your getting matched with groups of "casuals" which the matchmaking system uses you to push their mmr up against that sweat stack

All you gotta do is stop try harding for a bit and actively try not to win matches. Don't throw, but don't cap objectives. Push cart.. don't counter pick enemy players dominating your team..

After a bit your winrate and skill rating will deflate and it will revert back to being tolerable..

Do it to much and you'll start getting a lot of matches where you stomp enemy players.

Basically the matchmaking system punishes solo players for being good.. so you have to trick it into thinking your not as good as you actually are. To actually have any kind of enjoyable experience

The matchmaking system in this game is extremely easy to manipulate..

This is nothing except an excuse to try and pass the blame onto someone else and nothing more. You choosing not to communicate or work as a team is you and your teams fault and no one else's. This is simply put consequences for ones poor choices, and you're going to have to learn to suck it up and live with it.
