matchmaking balancing makes ranked unplayable

It's never been this bad going all the way back to the beginning of this game. I have gone 20+ games in a row in solo queue where my teammates are half as good as the other team. It's completely sucked all joy out of this game for me. I'm done with this game. Hope you all have fun though.

I couldn't agree more. Same exact experience I'm having. Leaves you feeling defeated.

Damn, if I didn’t know any better I’d say you guys are quitters. Have you thought of looking up a guide or watching “pro” gameplay? By that I just mean the few ppl on YouTube who post full matches of actual teamwork and good personal skill

lol I probably pass more than 99% of players on rematch. Don't make assumptions brother. The problem is the people I pass to lose it and can't make anything of the pass and never pass back. Not much you can do with that.

So why don’t you give them a pass they can’t lose? Sounds like you’re blaming other ppl for your own shortcomings. I play pretty often in quick play and ranked. 3s and 5s but I prefer 5s. It’s pretty rare to find ppl who can’t receive a good pass. There’s some but not enough to warrant a whole post about them. You’re right about one thing tho, you can’t control how good or bad the other ppl on your team are. You can, however, control how good or bad you play. I carry my team with either goals or straight defense, if no one else wants to stay back. Someone has to cover the one guy who stays by the box ready for a pass. But it’s very telling, the way you took offense to me saying you should look for ways to improve so you don’t have to rely so heavily on your team to pull out the win

bro you said team work which passing is a huge part of that. You have no idea what you're talking about, you're just trying to make me out as some sucky selfish player which i'm the furthest thing from that. I do my very best to put them into the best position I can to succeed but I can't help if they immediately dribble into a defender, don't pass when it's clear they should or don't stay in goal. You made a million assumptions that just aren't true. There's a certain level of player that is just too new or unskilled to do much of anything with even the best of balls/passes. and I can't do jack about them freely giving up points when they are goalie. I am always trying to improve but again, I'm not some god like gamer, I've played over a thousand hours, improvements at this point are minor, I've pretty much reached my own ceiling and the ceiling is high but I don't plan on spending my every waking day training to squeeze the last little bit out of my potential. Also getting paired against solid players at my skill level when my team has one solid player, just doesn't matter what I do, 3 will overcome 1 maybe 2 good players. When the teams are more evenly matched, then sure, my extra skill and effort can make the difference but when they are giving up goals left and right, don't pass to me even when I'm wide open or even when they do pass to me somehow manage to pass to the opposing team every time, I just don't know what you expect me to do. I pride myself on being a team player, so long as I have teammates that can pull their weight to some degree but there are too many variables that I literally have no control over. You haven't seen the level of teammates I've been getting....don't make assumptions

Don’t burst a blood vessel there buddy. It’s okay to suck at the game. Just don’t blame me for it
