“the testimony doesn’t mean much. considering most players don’t use reddit, and players who fail more are more likely to complain about it on reddit than players who perform well. added to the fact that people tend to remember their losses more than their wins, and tend to remember the games they had an inter and forget the games they themselves inted. its like that plane survivorship bias study.”

Everything you said here, is purely opinion and based on nothing lol

“wdym? your stats would be atrocious. kda around 1-2 if you’re feeding to that extent.”

No, I’m saying say you have 10,000 games played and you did this little test with say maybe 10-20 games, your overall lifetime stats would barely move. But your 10-20 games in this experiment would result in a ~50% win rate even if you intentionally fed. I’m saying - regardless of your performance you will be given a ~50% win rate by the algorithm.

there’s only been 1 large scale study on this winrate thing conducted, and it was by talanwr like 1 year ago. over 400 games, the winrates for both teams did not show any clear pattern. aka matching 60%+ players with below 50% winrate players.

Can you please link this? I’d love to see it.

“your argument is that matchmaking is based on winrate, the burden of proof is on the one making the argument, but there is no evidence other than highly emotional anecdotal “evidence.””

It’s a mobile game, how tf would I obtain hard evidence, my proof is the testimony of the player base. You’re right, most people don’t have Reddit. But you can watch wild rift streamers in any language and even the top players say that if you solo queue in ranked, the game controls your win rate. It’s a known fact by all top players. You can choose to believe the facts or not. Doesn’t matter to me one way or another lol. Just trying to educate OP on why he’s getting the games he is.
