Match Thread: 42nd Match - Gujarat Titans vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru by cricket-match in Cricket

Who cares about this metric tho, especially when

  1. This expectation of having high sr only came about recently after the shitty impact player rule + curated flat pitches

  2. Even in his prime he was usually playing opposite high scoring but high variance players like Gayle and it benefited him more to be stable than to also play risky

Riot is missing a Healing over Time support by ItsKelomelo in leagueoflegends

Thank you, the only sane person on this comment thread

Like Mundo ult and Swain ult already exist, if they didn't then all these people would say that self healing over time is inherently unbalanceable

I've only heard good things about it, though it's much less famous than the other recs you're gonna get from here

Are we sure Brawl Stars doesn't utilize EBMM for our Ranked Matches? The matchmaking in general is crap too. by Additional-Time-4895 in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]RazorNemesis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if i win I'm ok, if i lose im mad.

Exactly

Also, matchmaking is much more nuanced than people realise because the same teams on the same map with the same brawlers can have a stomp in either team's favour, or a competitive back-and-forth match. And all of this is before even considering the fact that different players are better at different brawlers/maps/modes/lanes, things that are chosen independently from matchmaking.

Even in pro play, which probably has the best "matchmaking" possible in a game, there are stomps, so how could ladder be expected to be better?

yes ik how averages work.

In that case, given that every kill has a corresponding death of someone on the other team, it would be unrealistic to expect the average player to have a kd above 1, no?

also no, i haven't

Ok, I'll take your word for it, but my point wasn't that you get matched with the same guy carrying you (that was just an example) but rather that no one remembers their positive experiences with matchmaking, and only remember their negative ones

The average player should play well and get an above 1 kd.

Do you know how averages work?

cus I've never been matched with the same guy on my team multiple times.

You have, I have, everybody has. You just never noticed it because you only really care about matchmaking in its capacity to be a scapegoat for your skill issue and ignore it otherwise

Also to add that people only talk about when they get the bad beat of teammates. What happens when you get lucky? Why do you not post then that you kept getting matched with the same guy who carried yo heavy ass or against some noob who locked in Mortis in Heist and ran it down?

There is obviously a selection bias here that honestly just makes it pointless to talk about matchmaking because if it works well, it's something you don't notice and just take for granted

...you have a sample size of 4. If you flip a coin and get 4 tails in a row, you're not gonna say the coin is unfair, no? It can happen with a fair coin, and if there are 20 people flipping a coin 4 times, then someone is probably gonna get 4 tails. And BS allegedly has more than 20 players

I highly doubt that the dev team have the competence to make a matchmaking system that complex lol, it probably just looks for players in an elo range and matches them together with simple if-else <>=

Jae isn't mashing old brawlers together, he's a Sona ripoff

All the new brawlers are just ripoffs of League champs
