Is new Matchmaking Flawed.

After the MMR shuffle was released, my team members in solo Q seem to be lacking common sense, some constantly rush far only to get repeatedly killed over and over by the enemy ranger that is just STANDING on the point. Very low priority is taken into the defence of home-point. Some players just rush far when we need them for the teamfight.

Some even rush for orbs when the enemy has 3 points capped. I only seem to get ONE reasonable player in my team per match. Last game, players were so shuffled around in the map, that a we almost lost a 4v5.

Could this be a bug? Or is the lack of players for Solo Arena so bad and am just unlucky with what I get grouped with. I’ve been loosing ~80% of my games, and dropped from position 30 to ~115 on the LBs.


no

the bug was before – when you was rank 30 than you had always top team and faced most time low teams

maby you are higher ranked than you should and now it need some time

Did you take the time to read my message, I was complaining about the lack or reasoning my team members had, NOT about loosing LB rank(who the hell cares about that?), my position was only an statement to support the idea that I should not have incompetent players.

The only advice I can really give to those who want more advanced tactics and strategy in their play is to form a group and play team arena.

We want solo arena to be a bridge from the casual play of hot-joins to the more serious play of team arena. We’re going to continue to improve matchmaking, but playing with less skilled players is likely to always be a possibility in solo arena.

Team arena also has no roster shuffling, so you can play with exactly who you want to.
