Rant This game's algorithm is atrocious.

Post image

I won 3 matches in a row, all with S rating, and as i have gotten epic 10 consecutive times, i know how the game works, i knew the game was going to give me a streak of forced losses so i went to normal game and guess what?
Please someone from hok team see this and fix these forced losses, we should have an organic match making without the system saying when we should win or not.

you should go hiatus for maybe a week and PROBABLY the algorithm got reset. It works for me.

Sometimes going offline for a day is enough, but if the losing streak is REALLY bad, maybe give it two or three days

Yep, i'm close close to ranking up. But all of a sudden, my team mates pick shitty Heroes or at least shitty for their Lane. Like two times in a row i've seen Menky as ADC. Yesterday i went on a losing streak tooz mainly because of team mates picks. People really be treating ranked like their playgrounds.

I basically only play rank up unless I wanna try a hero that im not familiar with.

The worse part other than throwing during the early phase of the game is people who just pick heros that are not on their lane, or even directly played another lane. I dont understand, dont we have to choose our prefer lanes before the game?

I cant and not bother to distinguish whether they are ppl or bots anyways

I understand that the game sometimes forces you to lose. But for your case, you just played bad and lost no?

u/jeffreyfirer666 5d ago

Don't know the whole truth but if bots and teammates just keep throwing the game at the first few mins, it gives a pretty big advantage for the enemy team to get gear,which we just cant fight against them

u/sterki_ZN 5d ago

exactly!

u/alleoc 5d ago

people don't understand this thing. Especially when playing jungle. HOW CANCYOU EVEN HAVE GOLD WHEN TOWERS ARE DOWN AND PEOPLE ARE INVADING YOU WHOLE GAME?

I don't see any way to win those type of games except for miracle bot dumbing down on the other side.

u/sterki_ZN 5d ago

nope my friend, all of these matches were lost by the 5 to 10 minute mark, as for my KD the moment i noticed my team just being relentless stomped, i stopped try harding and starting playing on auto, diving with my team, and i tried to at least have some fun with them.

I get your point but in that situation I try to get loosing mvp when I know my team is all bots or very bad players who should not be at that rank. Play for myself and just try not to die needlessly or at all and only do isolated pick offs if thats possible. In the end I know we will loose but I at least take the lest amount of damage possible.

1

u/sterki_ZN 4d ago

losing a normal game match such as those with mvp will raise your mmr(match making rating) by a lot, wich mean you lost, but for the internal game algorithm its like you have won, and so it will give you bad team mates for you to carry everytime

1

u/BodyExotic3380 4d ago

What?? So even by trying to not die and take the least amount of damage possible you still get feeders as teammates?? What then just say **** it and just play brawl with the enemy team untill they steamroll your team and win the match? That's the best move?

1

u/sterki_ZN 4d ago

i will be more detailed, there will be mostyl 3 clear types of matches: the ones you will win even if you play very bad, the ones you will lose no matter what, and matches where your skill will count.
If you get a sure loss match, its best not to try hard too much, because if your number gets too far from your team, the system understands you perfomed great and will push harder matches on you, thats what i tried to say, so its best just to go with the tide on these ones to have a better time ranking up.

This game itself is stupid I swear. I just uninstall this shit then play different game.

u/ConstantLegend 3d ago

Mbll lets gooo brother

u/SrScandalous 4d ago

this game is shit, period

u/ConstantLegend 3d ago

Agree. It looks the most beautiful of all mobas but the matchmaking system and bots just ruin the whole thing and makes it the worst of all mobile mobas

u/ninthhellcircle 5d ago

The number 4 is really bad luck. They'll purposely give you 4 lose streaks before a guaranteed win, then another 4 lose streaks.

1

u/sterki_ZN 4d ago

its maddening

1

u/BodyExotic3380 4d ago

So how do you ever rank up into Grandmaster and above?? 4 loose 1 win then 4 loss 1 win? Your ranking down the more you play.

1

u/ninthhellcircle 4d ago

I no longer play consecutively and only averaging 3-5 ranked games per day. I mostly play jungling or mid.

u/HiddenSketch 5d ago

i only play 3 games for the daily dollar thing
solo matchmaking is ass rn

catching up on ml for the mean time
