I feel like there is something wrong with the matchmaking. I’m always going either 15 games win streaks, or 15 games lose streaks, and there are no in betweens, no matter how good, or how bad i play.

In other multiplayer games with ranking like league of legends, the matchmaking system will always make you having around 50% win ratio, and win streaks or lose streaks longer than a few games are extremly rare if you’re not smurfing. Meanwhile in Overwatch it feels like, the system is intentionally forcing you to go on these long streaks for whatever reason.

    I think so, personally. There have always been matches where one person dominates because they had a really good game, but a) this didn’t happen every game and b) it was still fairly obvious they were at my level, just performing well. Since OW2 released I can probably predict with 70-80% accuracy which way a match will go based off of the first fight. Cause there is almost always a clearly standout player one side

    It’s mostly to do with stacks if you are solo queuing. Like you can have a gold player in your team even if you are diamond if they are part of a stack. I hate that part the most. OW1 displayed everyone’s rank right at the start which they don’t anymore.
