Hello,

I just wanted to share some feedback for you to consider, as the game is becoming increasingly frustrating for me and I’m slowly losing motivation to keep playing.

To be honest, the matchmaking system in its current state is quite poor. Whenever I queue solo, I constantly end up with players who seem to have little to no understanding of the game. They don’t grasp even the basic fundamentals and often just play their own way without contributing to the team. For players like me, this is extremely frustrating. Of course, everyone has to start somewhere—but there are clearly players who don’t even try to learn or improve.

At the same time, the enemy team often consists of highly overpowered or much more experienced players who completely dominate the match. In a team-based game, it’s simply not enough for one player alone to perform well. A certain level of game sense and basic understanding should be expected, but many players either lack this or ignore it entirely.

Because of this imbalance, the matchmaking system urgently needs improvement. Otherwise, you will continue to see more AFK players and quitters. Many of these issues could be reduced significantly with a better, more balanced matchmaking system

Additionally, character balance is another major concern. There should be ways to counter stronger opponents, but right now that often isn’t the case. For example, against a character like Eden, if the player has even a basic understanding of how to use him, it feels almost impossible to win. The same applies to Khaimera. The game needs much better balance in this regard

I understand that the game is not as large as League of Legends, but you are also losing players because of these imbalances. As another example of the matchmaking issue: I recently queued for Ranked in Bronze III and got matched with Silver players. How does that happen?

Please consider making improvements to the matchmaking system, as in its current state, it is simply not enjoyable

Yeah, match quality sometimes just ends up being your team trying to backseat that “one player” i feel you brutha

#

Try getting a duo or trio so you can deal with that easier while you wait 4 improvements

What Im annoyed of in matchmaking is that its not ranking „you“.

its ranking your team, your average team vp/mmr.

What do I mean? Im in dia 3 right now, but in one match I have play with and against gold/plat players. so the matchmaker drags me down in lower elo lobbies.

in the next match Im in a paragon/diamond team and have to fight 2 top 10 players on my duo lane.

So how is that possible? Im a gold or platin player or am I a top 10 player?
Im not any of this, Im a diamond 3 player.

I want to beat other diamond 3 players until im in diamon 2 to beat other diamond 2 players and so on.

my problem is, that im in diamond 3 and I have to be able to beat top 10 players consistently to become paragon.

this just feels weird.

EU and NA face different problems in EU there isn't enough high elo players so in order to climb in high elo you have to play against the top players (that is 100% a player base problem not on matchmaking).

in NA it's a problem of player base again but in a different way. In NA everyone wants to hands diff and ego each other so even in diamond everyone is still egoing and trying to hands diff. We even saw it in PCC some teams don't care about draft as much in NA and just want to skill diff their opponents and not think as much about macro like dropping waves and stuff like that. But the NA issues are for sure not on Omeda.

The only thing I can say is marketing in EU needs to become better is the only real fix they need for matchmaking.

So why do we have ranks if they mean nothing?

Im playing against gold dudes and against top 10 players the next match.

Sure, its a playerbase problem, but it shouldnt be that way
