yeah most of the time either my team is getting steamrolled or we are steamrolling the other team, very rarely is it an actually close and fun game (because it’s not fun when there’s no way you can win because the entire other team is much better in skill than your team, or when your team is really good and the other team has way less skill and it’s to the point where you barely even have to try)

The people excusing it and saying it’s a skill issue are wild, poor matchmaking is a common issue in many fps games

I think it depends… Some days i get a bad losing streak other times wins. This is also a mixture of either me doing really well or not being able to do anything and just rolled by the enemy.

I would like to also think that possibly maybe region comes into play? I usually play on AU servers and the quality of games are much worse compared to US or JP/KR games in general might be a placebo effect but I havent got as many bad strings of games ever since i switch servers now.

End /early of season is also typically the worst time to play even though ranks doesnt reset until S9. But even QP is kinda ass too.
