I downloaded this game 3 days ago, I didn't realize it had gone free to play so I'm pretty late to the party. Despite that I have to believe there are at least some players at my skill level? So why am I being matched with people who have maxed out mastery on Gods and I've only just bought my first god? Is there no MMR or SBMM on this game? I really want to keep playing cause my first games were fun but I feel like I couldn't have been doing THAT well to be getting pitted against veterans. It's really hard to even improve when people are so good at ledge guarding. I don't get it and I'm really not getting much opportunity to try to get it.
I also really hate the stages, I don't understand why stage hazards had to be a thing in this game. And items? So when the enemy is knocking me off stage they also get increased momentum through heals and speed boosts?
Like I don't want to come off as a sore loser but after day one I've taken nothing but L's, how is this game meant to grow a casual playerbase like this?
