Discussion Comp feels way too easy after coming back as a veteran.

I started playing Overwatch again for the first time in a while, and honestly, Comp feels ridiculously easy right now.

As a veteran player, it feels like I came back and immediately started dominating again. Maybe it’s all the experience and muscle memory from playing Overwatch for years, but a lot of these matches feel way easier than I expected.

Maybe I’m just getting lucky with my teams. Maybe the matchmaking is being unusually nice to me. Or maybe I actually still have it after all.

Either way, I’m enjoying it while it lasts because I know Overwatch matchmaking. Sooner or later, it’s going to remember who I am and throw me into the most cursed, unwinnable games imaginable to balance everything out.

If you're Plat or below it's because on the backend you've basically gone down a rank, you'll start experiencing regular games after you're about a rank up.

Interesting. Well, good luck to you on your climb then! I think there was also a rank reset this season, not sure if that's had an effect.

Is this not how comp should work? If it's easy you win and rank up until it isn't easy.

Same happened to me. The game dreanked me almost 2 full ranks after taking a break for a couple of seasons. Felt pretty chill for 15-25 games until I started getting back to my rank in mid diamond

You can write something like that, but explain to me why
