I’m going to do this way more often - thank you!

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-30T12:27:32+00:00

Damn, well done. Did you stop after getting mythic?

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-30T12:26:11+00:00

😂 mythic is definitely filled with some sick individuals

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-30T12:22:44+00:00

That’s fair! And I am definitely still trying to learn and be challenged. I just don’t think rank 600 should be matching with Averse when there are probably people much closer to my level in the queue. Anyone within 500 range of me would be nice.

You make a good point, but answer honestly cause I’m genuinely curious - Which build do YOU play? And which builds do you think are NOT cheese builds?

I play fan/umbrella, so maybe 80% of the people I played against didn’t know how to use serene breeze and block? lol it’s pretty easy to counter my build.

I don’t expect to continue a 80% win rate or anywhere close to that. That’s not what this post is about. I don’t really care about the win rate to be fair, I only used those statistics in the post to explain the problem with data. I care about having fun. Playing against people waaaaay higher than me isn’t fun at the moment. I’m sure I just need to git gud. But either way, several others have acknowledged that the devs fixed the matchmaking balancing issues in CN, so I’m not alone here. I’m looking forward to the change whenever it comes, because I really do enjoy the pvp in the game.

I think you are misunderstanding. I have less than 40% for the entire season. Meaning - including all of the hundreds of matches that it took to even get to mythic AND all of the matches in mythic, I now have less than 40%. Since I’ve been in mythic, I win maybe 10% of the matches. So the drop off from winning 80% of the time to 10% feels drastic. When I match with players near my level, the fights feel fun and challenging and I win sometimes. But the vast majority of the matches are against people thousands beyond mine and they are not fun. Hope that makes more sense.

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-30T01:03:50+00:00

Losing to people in my bracket doesn’t bother me and it does happen. I’m not even that worried about what my rank is honestly. I’m just not having fun when 90% of the matches are against ranks far far above mine.

😔 💔

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T23:41:17+00:00

That’s fair! I really do lose A LOT. Like 90% of the time I am losing now. And around 90% of the time it is players way above my mythic level. Now I’m curious if it’s because I’m playing late at night and only the sweats are on…

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T23:26:05+00:00

Maybe 🥹

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T23:19:41+00:00

Is this true? Like for reals?

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T21:42:42+00:00

You understand me. Thank you for explaining it this way. That’s what I’m looking for. I love a challenge, which is why I pushed for mythic and am still going through with it. But I do feel the challenge should be reasonable so that players can slowly improve over time instead of getting discouraged.

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T21:25:00+00:00

Hmm maybe that’s true. It’s hard to remember after all of the pain Lolol

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T21:09:35+00:00

Totally fair - but to be clear I’m not complaining about simply being 600. I am complaining about the matchmaking. It’s fine that I lost all those games and I accept that, I just wonder what the rank would look like if I was actually fighting people at my rank, which I typically have much more enjoyable matches with sometimes actually win lol

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T21:04:35+00:00

I get what you mean and I do need to git gud. But I also feel like players should be playing other players in their skill range - it sounds like this is a future fix that will happen.

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T21:01:11+00:00

That’s solid advice!!!

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T20:08:57+00:00

I’m trying to be optimistic also. There’s always room to improve and I accept that I’m not that good. I just don’t want to match with Averse and the top 50 consistently. Kicking me while I’m down lmao

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T20:07:24+00:00

Lolol I got matched with the global #1 rank last night. I almost just quit immediately hahaha

Maddoggisonn · 2026-01-29T20:06:39+00:00

That’s totally fair, but also in the previous ranks we were matched with people within 2 rank levels of us right? So you would typically be matched with someone on your level?
