That is true, Overwatch isn't the only team game that could improve the matchmaking. The problem I've had in Overwatch these past few days is that it really feels as if the game doesn't even try to match me up with equally-skilled persons. I am always matched with/against much higher skilled players than myself. | ||

So now I'm only 3-18 this week. | ||

And being matched against "higher skill" players is a good thing, in general, because it means it's trying to correct for what is seen as a skill discrepancy from where you are and how you're performing. If you're in Gold league and getting matched with Plat/Gold opponents and teammates, then the MMR system probably thinks you're close to being in Plat. | ||

If it was just a small difference (I don't know what the proper word here is) in skill level, then fine, I could accept it. But with differences as big as they have been for me the last few days, it is not fun at all. | ||

He dives me, I miss and miss, body shot him, he's on 80 hp, surely someone will notice. Nope. Game awareness is hard. Might be my biggest frustration when playing soloque. Sure it's partly my own fault for not using a mic so I can call for help, but people have the lowest sidevision and map awareness imaginable. I've seen Roadhogs happily stay behind the Reinhart and try to hook the enemy on the other side of the shield while a Genji with ult kills the entire team right behind his back. Or how when the enemy has a Phara and I'm not the one playing soldier, she's consistently hovering right above our heads and never ever takes as much as a pot shot, because people are too fucking blind to look up. I'd almost go as far as to proclaim Phara OP in soloque because she just absolutely rips apart an entire team by herself when no one contests her..which they don't. | ||

About matchmaking, for some reason someone thought its enough to have just one number for matchmaking in team games that have multiple roles, that require different skill sets and have rps elements involved. I think Overwatch does pretty well at giving me people at my level (population is rather important here). Doesn't mean we are evenly skilled at mechanics and decisionmaking. Those can vary greatly, but even eachother out in the end. But that doesn't concern the matchmaking it seems. So you end up with teams that have 6 dps players, that lack strategical knowledge. Or with 6 flex players, that will end up having too much trouble stopping an enemy carry that has superior mechanics. Would be cool if the matchmaking would give solo players roles depending on what they play. And use that to balance out teams. | ||

I can't complain though, new defense meta allows me to play Mei solo everywhere. Well you can always play Mei in SoloQ and carry 5 derps with you. Or in team Sombra. It's so amazing when your D.Va feeds you 20% ult every 15 seconds in a teamfight. SoloQ people are to dumb to walk to healthpacks though. They prefer slowly dieing to a D.Va, Luckily people are dumb enough to chase a Sombra on the left area of Hanamura, where you can win 3v1s rather easily. | ||

WHY CANT I WIN A FUCKING GAME Like you I'm insanely sick and tired of losing at this point, but unlike you I don't think it's cause I'm playing bad. It feels largely completely random whether I win or not, and that randomness having ended up in a major losing streak lately. And this season is by far the worst when it comes to leavers, trolls, people flanking with Roadhog alone, complete lack of teamwork, and people who instapicks Hanzo (seriously just remove him from the game already. He's not fun to play, he's not fun to play against, he's impossible to balance unless you make him overall bad or way too good, and anyone who picks him, at least on my level, plays like garbage). | ||

So you can even prevent your noobs from feeding until they can solo ult someone ! Starting to think Phara might be OP in my mmr range. Of the few who even notices her, even fewer is good enough to kill her, and absolutely no one is willing to change to a hero that actually can (or is able to as often someone useless has locked Soldier). | ||
