Ever since 7.34 came out I have had MAYBE 10% of my games actually be close. Every other game I either stomp or get stomped.

I’m totally ok with losing but these games aren’t even close when I lose.

I’m totally ok with winning but these games are hollow cuz it’s not even a challenge.

Anyone else having this same experience or is it just me?

    The games are like this cause MMR is just a number. There are gigantic skill differences. Esp since valve gave half their players a mmr boost with the last recalibration.

    For example: One quite bad friend of mine got to Archon I but he is one of the truest mid tier guardian players you can imagine. And where is he now? Crusader IV.
    Yes, he has dropped a bit, but it will take quite sometime until he is back at his “true” mmr.

    And that’s just one player in a game where 10 players are competing. I most certainly know more than one person, who is “boosted”. Now think of all the players in your friendlist who might also fit that “true guardian/herald/whatever” description,

    I either try hard and push my games beyond 50 percent winrate or I accept the matchmaking gamble. There is no chill way to play and just go with the flow. Half your teams calls just have to get ignored to keep your own game clean somehow. In many cases you can even ping/say that a bad fight is approaching and that your tp is on cooldown and they still run into a 5 man rotation and get washed away like a few brainless crabs.
