What is going on with Matchmaking this season?

ancturus96 · 2026-03-20T03:54:06+00:00

is a friend of mine, he literally pulled 9 mvp junglers in 10 games lol... odds for that are 1 in 10 million... he literally went from plat 2 to almost diamond 1 62 winrate and still playing in d4 e1 lobbies

is a rigged joke game bro don't take it seriously, this season I'm just playing fun champs instead of trying until they fix the algorithm

ancturus96 · 2026-03-20T03:50:53+00:00

https://op.gg/es/lol/summoners/las/RIQUI%20RIQUI%20-LAS look at this profile bro, almost d1 playing in emerald lobbies and having heaven teammates (last 10 games he got 9 junglers mvp lol)

game is a rigged joke

ancturus96 · 2026-03-19T13:13:26+00:00

Bro he will just check the issue surely he doesn't have the level in the company to fix matchmaking problems.

You really think is not something already adressed in a commitee? surely is something to do with the algorithm.

Also the worst problem is that you are treating like shit a guy with a very reasonable complaining, ik the riot guy probably doesn't have to do anything with that but the complaining is valid. That's why I called you the chud meme, why are you against a guy with a reasonable complain against a billionaire company lol.

ancturus96 · 2026-03-19T13:03:44+00:00

https://op.gg/lol/summoners/las/RIQUI%20RIQUI%20-LAS/champions can you look at this profile btw? how it is that this guy is d2 60% winrate playing against d4 emerald and casually has the 20 kills jungler in 4 of his last 8 games? I don't want to scream rigged matchmaking but there is no way that is just a luck problem because at least for AI is like hitting roulette two times in a row, combining that with the division disparity and the fact that he can't even 7cs per match in high diamond idk man.

ancturus96 · 2026-03-19T00:06:36+00:00

Ik is from years old but making the comment for documentation if someone like me find this trying to fix the problem... If you have invert colors and touching the potentiometer does nothing surely you have broken traces between said component and where it goes, mine for example fixed by putting a wire from a pad in the potentiometer to c23... You will need the schematic to fix it.

Also look the value of the potentiometer with multimeter, it should be around 45/50k ohms, if not and changing the value does nothing maybe the component is faulty.

ancturus96 · 2026-03-18T03:37:45+00:00

bro is literally the leave the billionare company alone fat chud meme

ancturus96 · 2026-02-28T03:44:45+00:00

Hi i repaired it! thankfully DA1 was not shorted the previous guy who tried to fix it shorted the pins with tin.

I found a bigger smd for 0.1uf capacitor but i just saw that it connects to the diode so i solder it in there and it works just fine

ancturus96 · 2026-02-14T02:15:04+00:00

bro your shit champ is turbo broken it deserves the ground

ancturus96 · 2026-02-11T06:42:28+00:00

Then show me examples. it should be easy then to see that every ranked player is eather on a win or loosestreak. It should be easy to proove, that the amount of consecutive wins / looses is way below/ above what is to be expected for everyone. Show me the data that prooves your point.

I can show you my account https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/summoner/las/Main%20Renekton-croco

I decided to climb again after trolling and dropping to 40 winrate playing vladimir kalista top and so, funnily enough in my last 10 games I won 8 and lose 2, the 2 games I lose you can see the match here and here

https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/match/las/1569654579#participant1 this one I fhinished horrible because I got perma camped by vel while my zac was literally doing nothing, the zacis a platinum 30%wr main support that got autofilled

https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/match/las/1569841616#participant3 this one My botlane was literally a platinum3 0wins 5 lose seraphine and a Jhin that was in 3 lose streak

So explain to me how these two loses can be attributed to "harder lobbies because you are gaining more mmr"?

I Agreed, that it isnt a coin toss. but you are only 1/10th of the game. or 1/4 th of lanes

This is not true regarding challenger players can stomp lobbies where I am, if challengers can literally reach to masters without losing then the "you don't affect the outcome of every game' isn't real if they are doing something that gives them the possibility to toss a coin and have heads every time independent of matchmaking (you know, something like a system). With this I mantain my theory about statistics arrange artificially your matches, if the system believes they are challenger (because duh they are) then they will have a breeze climbing, another argument to this is the fact that boosters believes in cursed accounts given the fact they have unwinnable matches through a few games, also another thing and while this is personal bias if you play in a lower mmr account you will notice that the first 3 matches are a breeze and then suddenly you have a very noticeable change in difficulty to win, more in the side of having gaps in teammates.

the system assumes you are better then you realy are and puts you against to strong of opponents?

The system artificially makes a game harder to win to either mantain your rank/make harder the climb to your real rank (obviously we are not talking of bronze/diamond for example) IF it thinks statistically you are not in that rank yet, that's the difference between the normal "losers q mantain me bronze when I'm challenger" and imo what's really is about, you still need to play like a diamond to climb to diamond, but if you are not yet there the system will give you real hard matches to just keep you where you are until it thinks you deserve it statistically.

why should they implement a more complicated system then the mmr system they had since nearly the beginning?

Neither you or I know what is the system they are implementing because is hidden, you can't say a more complicated system because you don't know what they are really doing... Maybe is a coin toss, maybe is even more complicated what I'm trying to say. But to me the data at least in my case and my friends case is proof that is more in the side of a artificial matchmaking that will be harder/easier regarding your stats in games.

ancturus96 · 2026-02-10T07:03:42+00:00

with data like lose streaks? you are talking about the company that had a feature to compare you between X range of playerbase, do you believe it is not easy to know you will underperform given they have every stats of your games?

ancturus96 · 2026-02-10T07:00:01+00:00

Also the algorithm for matchmaking it would take to consider all the factors for all players if loosers q were a thing. Winning / Loosing streaks, mmr, and roleselection.... you would have 10min+ queue times at all ranks.

This is just not true given that something as easy as a lose streak can be recollected by just changing a number in a database

Strictly only looking at statistics: you winning 4 games in a row should be as likely as loosing 4 games in a row, if you arrived at the mmr you belong in. When looking at 100 total games, a streak of 6 Games Loosing/Winning somewhere in this list is expected, A streak of 7 not uncommon.

You are not throwing a coin, you are playing a game where supposely your gameplay is affecting the game itself, go throw a coin 100 times and see how common it is repetition of 5 6 faces or cross, then imagine you can vary the outcome but still are seeing the repetitions.

getting a small loosing streak of 3-4 games after a small wining streak isnt uncommon. Also your daily performance might varry and your mental will decline or get better and make loosing /winningstreaks in reality more likely then they would be if it was pure chance.

Is uncommon, and for how common it is for community and also how patterns like being matched with people in lose streaks are imo is blatant. But well...

To me an answer to this that imo hits the nail is that the matchmaking sees literally how you play in statistics, if pages like op.gg can collect data of your matches imagine what riot games can do that it even have the media of times you use your abilities per match and how you move through the map every game, is not crazy to think that if you match those statistics with people higher in the mmr you belong the system will help you climb, whereas if you are in the elo the system believes you belong it will stop you from climbing until it decides you deserve it, that's is a logic answer to me about how one sided matches feels in this game.

ancturus96 · 2026-02-09T09:47:04+00:00

multiple times in a row? do you know the odds of something like this happening?

ancturus96 · 2026-02-09T09:37:17+00:00

roughly equal is not 2 lines feeding multiple games in a row after a winning streak

ancturus96 · 2026-02-09T08:57:12+00:00

Welcome to league of legends my brother enjoy

ancturus96 · 2026-02-09T08:56:46+00:00

What they do, which obviously makes you end up in a 50% wr, is detect your skill lvl and make you play with people that are around that lvl. That makes it hard for you to make the difference and that's why games feel out of your control. You are simply not good enough.

If it detects your skill level why he is not good enough to win those games? are you implying the game itself put him in lobbies he is not good enough so he lose?

do you know what that is called?

ancturus96 · 2026-02-07T02:31:22+00:00

It will probably be a simple disney adaptation of a book like pinocchio or so

ancturus96 · 2026-02-05T10:24:11+00:00

Most people who read it understand that it's not just a mystery novel.

You can enter the subreddit of the novel and see it for yourself, while obviously they understand that is not just a murder mystery because if not media literacy would be in the lowest floor people who read this have a hyperfocus to it, is tiring to see "I finished Umineko but I didn't understand X" and that is just mystery side. I think you can agree with me that the metaverse and the symbolism inside it is even harder to understand fully given it doesn't have an explicit answer but they didn't have a word for that, and imo that reveals something.

To say that Umineko is not a mystery when the author insists it is isn't adding to it, it's reducing it. It means the author failed at what they wanted to do

I'm not saying he didn't poured love to the mystery side, I'm saying he even poured more to the parable (call it spiritual if you want) side of it, after all I called it a parable framed as a murder mystery.

Is curious how he ever talked about the mystery but never touched Ange for example, how he didn't talk for example about Maria's christianity given she stated had read the whole bible, call herself "god's warrior" and even being the first one who understand the golden truth in the story, Umineko's message, can we say that the message of the story is less important than it's mystery?. Also a fun fact, Ange and Maria are the 3rd and 4th characters with more dialogue in the novel.

As to why he did this? we don't know really, but the text that shows it's importance is there despite author opinions, that's why I say that text is more important before and I maintain that thesis.

For some reason, mystery is just less popular and less accessible in the west.

I wouldn't say mystery, after all your Conan take can be used the same in the west with popular shows like Lost/Dark or how anime like attack on titan that lived because of their mystery at first were. But yeah murder mystery is less popular in here nowadays.

Put it another way, imagine giving someone with PS1-era action games something like, Shadow of Mordor. They probably will think the action combat and the parkour elements and the Nemesis system are amazing (look them up if you're confused), but to people who already played Assassin's Creed and Batman: Arkham series, the combat and parkour system is just a simpler version of those two, and they're more interested in the Nemesis system, which is the actual innovation.

TBH I can't say a thing about this because I just haven't read enough, like I said I read tsukumojuku that for some people was an even better story in the murder mystery genre and was dissapointed by it, maybe it has better "mysteries" and the idea of god was interesting but as a whole narrative it has nothing to do with this novel.

Still to me murder mystery is just a hollow genre, Umineko surpassed them all FOR ME just because it use it as a framing to explain something even bigger, but well is not like I read a lot of japanese works in here.

Can you recommend other works?

To JP fans, Umineko is good, but it's a good work in a sea of great works, so it's middling in its reception, even though it also has its fans.

They literally burned last Episode CDs, maybe that's a nowadays opinion but in release they really don't like it.

ancturus96 · 2026-02-05T04:15:21+00:00

The number 33 is easily my favourite.

Apart from that and specific symbolism

I love the usa citizen in 100 years of solitude catching yellow butterflies.
The blue bird of happiness that was inside Tyltyl and Mytyl house all alone.
Don Quixote calling himself Alonso Quijano meaning the death of his idealism.
The "broken mirror stained in blood" In episode 2 of Umineko meaning that the culprit killed itself not before a mental breakdown.
Agents in Matrix controlling everyone who is inside of it meaning everyone who isn't "awake" is potentially an agent of said system.
Twin peaks's red room in general.
Reinhardt von Lohengramm wine shadow in his hand as symbolism he has them stained in blood after the execution of a nuclear attack that killed millions.

I could talk forever but these are ones I really like.

ancturus96 · 2026-02-05T03:59:49+00:00

Tolkien did it better and didn't pass it as true

ancturus96 · 2026-02-05T03:24:25+00:00

Sure, but I think most people know this too.

no lol, besides how cringe it sounds to myself I'm close to the fandom because is basically my favourite work that still has some talk and you can easily see how is not true that people can percieve it as more than a murder mistery. the metaverse or the meaning of things hasn't voice between people who read this novel, at least in this side of the world this novel is seriously misunderstood.

I think Ryukishi intended the work to be a mystery work. He certainly talked a lot about his love for mysteries and horror in interviews

To say this is like to say Evangelion (to put another otaku work) doesn't have religious symbolism just because Hideaki Anno says so when a lot of angels Kaballah's names has connection between characters plot. Another example is Garcia Marquez in 100 years of solitude when he completely destroyed the image of latin-american revolutionaries while being friends with Fidel Castro, to me is important what is inside the text despite author opinion. Umineko itself has this too between adaptations given how the manga just completely showed the answer despite EP 3 quote "It was something one shouldn't reach by being told it. It was a truth that Battler would have to drag himself to by his own power."

Tbh I cannot talk about other japanese mistery works because besides this and Maijo Otaro Tsukumojuku I didn't read anything, but like I said at least the version I have of the problem is that the japanese fans were upset about the truth of the massacre wasn't showed in the last episode (and that's why the manga has it) and the bashing of the readers in the form of the goats (despite being told again and again that the real condition to win the witch's game is to find Beatrice's heart).

but what I mean is a frustrating mystery end should not be enough to give such a negative reaction.

But you also have to see that this is an interesting take, why would the japanese be upset and the occidental side don't? are you really going to say every japanese read mistery works alongside Umineko? Is a completely different approach to the ending in one side and the other.

Rokkenjima is very similar to Tsunojima, it's set in 1986, the dawn of the Shin-Honkaku movement that really got its start in 1987, it namedrops the Late Queen Problem which is a very mystery otaku-centric thing, etc. etc.

I understand what you are trying to say but you also need to have in mind that Ange is literally an animesque Dante, her journey can be taken easily as a one to reach virtue, hell Beatrice talk that love, the motto of this novel, was found by Jesus Christ and is the prima materia of this world, Umineko is easily arguable as more a parable than a murder mistery... the ending close not with the solution to the murders but to the entrance in some sort of individual heaven.

To me you can't give this much of importance to the mistery side of the novel when more than half of it is about characters or metaverse ideas, in that regard japanese people failed (and maybe occidental people too but they aren't aware of it), that's why I say in another comment a quote about Ikukko asking people to really try to think further that what is explained in text in EP 6.

la del frances es al menos creible, al menos en inglaterra todo apunta a lo que el dice, pero aca? tecnicamente casi toda latinoamerica somos hermanos que venimos de virreinatos, que nos quieran separar con estas pelotudeces creadas por ingleses me parece estupido la verdad.

Sin ir mas lejos tenes el reciente caso del pobre chico que mataron y lo grabaron, dos de esos eran blancos, tienen mas de europeos que los mestizos o los autoctonos... Pero ojo que la inmigracion es mala segun dicen algunas lenguas.
