Matchmaking problem
is it just me facing this problem?
almost every match i got is my teammates rep is around 10-80 but enemy team is 100+-300
and system even said my skill and enemy is on par how the hell is that possible?

We got the opposite problem, we rep 191+ and are matched with reps 1-30

Nope, had the same problem for awhile. But it's became more noticeable with Hulda's release.

I personally think something with the Matchmaking algorithm as gone screwy.
Less players --> less players to match together with similar skill lvl.

I just recently decided to come back as no chinese hero felt interesting to me nor BP nor hito felt interesting to me. First match I play today in PVP, I'm alone with 3 COMPLETE noobs (less than 5 OVERALL rep) and I have 86 overall rep. Thing is, as I explained just above, I didn't play in about 10months easily if not more so I'm essentially back at noob lvl. And the enemy team has 2 noobs with less than 10 overall rep but 2 really good players that clearly never stopped playing like I did with each having 90+ overall rep.

Needless to say, it was an extremely frustrating experience. I don't plan on returning to FH anymore. Getting decimated by players that just never stopped playing since release is not fun. In a fighting game, I expect to face opponents of similar skill lvl to mine.

How is the game supposed to know you took a break and aren't as good as before? It can only go off of your reps and win rate which haven't changed at all.

Its not like it could check the last time I logged into the game...noo thats impossible to do! /s

Edit: there are MANY games that deduct/lowers your ELO/rank/skill score whenever you spend a certain amount of time without playing the game and, the longer you stop playing, the more it gets lowered.

Yeah there are games like CS:GO that lower your actual rank when you don't play but as you know the ranked mode in this game is dead.

Yeah, but the regular matchmaking should also have it incorporated (if it's coded for ranked, 90% of the job is done to code it for non-ranked) plus my point was also about how I was also the only person in my team that didn't just started playing For Honor in the last week or so while the enemy team had 2 players above 90 overall rep.

In short, even without considering me (that is essentially a noob after not playing for so long), my team had 3 fresh/new players while the enemy team had 2. That kind of game shouldn't be a thing where you have players with a handful of hours of experience with the game that play with/against ppl that have hundreds of hours. 5 players with not even 20 hours on the game play with/against ppl with EASILY 500+ hours lol...

Believe me I agree that the matchmaking needs work and I do hope eventually they get to making it better.
