If you're playing a game to warm up, you shouldn't be too concerned with winning or losing. You should be focusing on keeping up with your macro, etc. and "warming up"

what I wanted to ask or discuss is....why the hell is something like that even theoretically possible? I mean, basic probability theory tells us that I should be the worse player in about 50% of all matches;



Well if you're in diamond then you're in the (for the sake of arguement) top 5% of players. Add to that the fact that more skilled players probably play fewer 2v2s, and the vast majority of players who queue for a game will be worse than you.

Now of course the MMR should compensate for that... perhaps there aren't many players of your skill or above queuing for a game at the same time as you, so it's hard for the system to match you with those players.

I use team games just for fun! In a 4v4 I once built up a 200/200 army of almost entirely ghosts with the original intention of just getting the "Professionals Have Standards" achievement but wound up playing one of my most hilarious and fun games. I highly recommend the "all-ghost" build for someone looking to have a good time.
