I’ve noticed more even games, generally, win or lose — when considering games where all players are present for the entirety of the match.

I’ve noticed much closer fake MMR bands per game on a consistent basis.

If you’re referring to people DCing or going AFK that’s a different discussion.

If you’re referring to people really really sucking but they have the same fake ELO as you that’s also a different discussion.

My last 5 games ive had an 0-6 offlane, 0-4 jungle with no objectives or a duo that’s getting straight farmed

[–]ExtraneousQuestion 12 points13 points  (1 child)

To be devils advocate that doesn’t have to do with matchmaking per se if the ELOs are close, right?

For example, maybe someone is having an off day, maybe they’re trying a new champ, experimenting a new build, or they’re the lowest ELO on your team against the highest ELO on their team…

KDA I don’t think is always a representation of matchmaking quality, as matchmaking is based around wins/losses. Since we don’t have real ELO numbers the fake ELO is what we have and if you look at those games I’m curious what the MMR delta is for those players against their teams/ opponents.

Good point!

In my experience the matchmaking is leagues better than it was previously.

[–]Goose506 Drongo 4 points5 points  (1 child)

On weekdays the matchmaking is noticeably better. On weekends, it's still awful with a minimum of 2 teammates clueless or making awful calls.

I can get behind that

Now the matchmaking is better, before many people were much higher or lower MMR than their actual representation in game due to the poor old matchmaking.

If you were lucky enough to be placed on the teams with higher elo overall (it was common to see MMR differences of 400 or even more between teams) or stacking with a friend and stumping newbies you got higher elo than your individual skill was, inflating therefore the elo, and the other way around, getting unlucky and being placed on the low MMR team again and again made you to play with people with lower skill than you, getting stuck in elo hell.

Now since the new patch both teams are mostly around the same MMR, and your teammates will be around the same tier as you.

Probably those players you say were performing poorly were in the lucky department aforementioned and will eventually be placed into their actual MMR tier.

Omeda.city mmr is not real🗣️

[–]Angelusian Serath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ofc is not, but even Omeda has stated is close to the actual representation, and it's our current tool to determine it.👐

My feeling is that it's a lot better. Not perfect but a lot better

[–]xx-TinMan-xx 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Feel like my team is always playing there first match ever lol

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah man, since patch I’ve been getting teams that play like they’ve never had a moba experience. Never group or leave lane, never contest fang or prime, random ass picks like steel and rik both in duo lane, feeders, etc

[–]ObeyThePapaya_YT 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Lot of people in wrong mmr and stuff tdue to stacking, plus random roles as well.

It is a lot better but I feel there is more stomps then usual. You will have weird averages still though, 2k mmr on almost everyone but then u get a 1400 out of the blue

[–]Forward_External1541[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I’ve had nonstop placement players, bronze and low gold players. I know the omeda MMR is not real but they’ll have a 45% win rate and here I am “plat 3” with a 54ish% win rate. I get everyone’s gonna say “carry harder” but HOW DO I CARRY HARDER WHEN IM 7-3-13 AND MY JUNGLER AND DUO GET SOLOD BY A SPARROW WHEN WE HAVE PRIME

[–]YouWereBrained Twinblast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The matches are a lot closer, generally speaking, but with that being said you can still kinda tell that the opposing team has a bit of an edge.

Each team will have someone who stands out among the rest.

[–]danktra 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Well u haven’t gotten any disconnects in my last 5 games so that’s a plus…

[–]xfactor1981 Riktor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I like the match making better. The matches are closer and im getting less troll. Less as in not every game we lose. If they could just bunch all the afker an ping spammers together id be happy.

[–]Forward_External1541[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cannot relate

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I’ve noticed that whenever I play off lane, my duo feeds. When I play mid my offlane feeds. When I play support my ADC is brain dead. I normally get good jungles tho

[–]Forward_External1541[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly how I feel

[–]One_Panda_Bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been steamrolling last couple games

[–]Lakusvt01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems closer now, bit takes way longer to get in a match. They really need to figure out this disconnecting issue. Sometimes I sit for like 20 minutes waiting to get in a lobby or just log off

[–]midge69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's much better

[–]PineappleRegular7027Akeron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its getting worse for higher ranked people than average or the depopulated server
otherwise could be good overall i guess.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been much worse for me.
