If you can't distinguish a player who's playing poorly from a player who's doing poorly due to bad matchups/poor support but playing well, then you can improve on that. The point is, it's something YOU can control, and not just a random factor of matchmaking. Being able to judge how good each teammate is matters for winning pubs on EVERY role, not just support. A lot of people complain about getting bad teammates in matchmaking, but I don't think it's actually that common where people get 4 teammates that are all bad (and when you do, you just shrug it off and go to the next game). I DO think its common that you'll get 1-2 good teammates and 2-3 bad teammates, and then see the good teammates get put into a scenario where they cannot carry the game. A mid hero in a bad matchup, an off-laner against a strong duo-lane/tri-lane, a carry with a bad support. You need to recognize those players that are good and be sure they can be put into situations where they can make good on their ability. This is true on any role, but is more so for support because you can't single-handedly take control of the game--you NEED one of those teammates to actually win the game when you're a support. A team doesn't need all 5 players to be good to win in a pub. There are plenty of pub games everyone wins where there was that one guy who fed and was useless, but it didn't change the end result of the game. You don't lose games because you had 1 bad player--you lose games because your team put the game into a situation where how good that bad player was mattered. Its however worth noticing that the definition of 'bad' or 'playing bad' is not a constant. Meaning that it is a relative definition which scale differently by your skill level. This results that unless you are the absolute best/worst player in the world, there always exist somebody who is better/worse than you that is near by your bracket. The outcome in term of game play is also magnified by the factor of line up which is different from game to game. It is really freaking hard to judge player skill level via a pub game rather than judging the skill level of a team as a whole and seeing how you ranked in the overall scale in term of coordination and execution. That to be said, 99% of the pub matches should not be taken too seriously but just for fun matches. The game is balanced and designed via captain mode and should be judged using team match making. If you are complaining about public match making system, you are doing it wrong. | ||

People will only get more ridiculous as they go an entire two months without a new hero. And I will laugh and laugh and laugh. | ||
