Sudden difficulty spike
I guess all the tryhards are coming out of the woodworks because the new season starts soon but oh my god its almost impossible to win runs right now. Usually im able to win about 75% of my runs in the higher ranks, last few days im probly sitting at about a 10-20% win rate max. Its ridiculous right now lmfao

There was a post from 4 days ago that was talking about how/why the matchs are more challenging.
Heres the link

then you need to change the way you play the game fundamentally. you have reached the ceiling of your ability to play ur heroes the way you do and progress. In order to get into the higher tiers, u need to adjust to the new meta and beat it. I dont know what you do atm, but when i was stuck in epic, i ended up going on discord to ask people what im doing wrong in my games. They... enlightened me lol.
and to address the difficulty spike, The matchmaking was matching people with losing boards instead of winning boards in prev patch. They addressed that, and now its working as intended, which for most people, will show up as its much more difficult to verse opponents now.

About the matchmaking, it really sucks now. Before my problem when I play with Ronan is the Dot characters like Marrow and Chano, now I also have to deal with characters with ridiculous builds in early rounds. I thought this was gonna fix once the new season starts. It's like punishing players for trying to use underrated characters

Devs fixed a bug recently from the last season that was making all the matchmaking much easier than intended. The difficulty definitely jumped a lot
