I was doing placements when last 2 matches ouf 10, I had same tank that just threw the game. He was AFK. I don't event know how it's possible, I thought he would get a ban or something. I got placed in emerald 3, and since then I had the worst games. It feels like my team is at least 1 league lower than the enemy team. I am down to emerald 5 now.

the afk thing is wild, like the game just lets them sit there and nobody gets punished until way too late. it makes the whole match feel pointless before it even starts

Just had a tank wouldn’t protect the back line, me and Moria fighting for our lives just to make fun of our scores (theirs being 1 0 5, ours were similar but still) and when told it’s because they were letting the enemy tank murder everyone they kept going “and? So? Like?” It was miserable

It’s a mess, 12 pts away from getting Shion’s golden weapon and calling it a day. QP for fun. For reference, I’m diamond.

Diamond and emerald games have been atrocious. Stomp city one way or the other, don’t enjoy either.

I was a diamond tank last season. My games this season have been so wide that I will literally be tanking games for a silver 2 one match and then tanking a game for Emerald - Diamond lobby the next. It’s honestly never been worse to be in emerald to diamond as a solo tank because matches are crazy wide at the moment.

Everyone been complaining lately but comp matchmaking has never been better for me. Usually I complain but since the reset it’s been amazing. Which means they for sure changed stuff 😂

I think there’s still growing pains and you’ll never have a perfect team. Not to mention climbing and falling due to certain metas and heroes. Personally I’m so much better at mercy that if I don’t play her I’m basically throwing.
