Masters 4's RT is infested with plats and golds now, don't like the new system at all. Masters players who team up for RT (i.e. 3 people team up for 4's RT) will dominate even harder now...
dont get me freaking started on this. played 8 or so games in random 2v2, half the game i got gold partner vs double diamond team. the whole game is 1v2. if people think theres a huge difference between pros/GM and high masters (which there is), the difference between gold and top masters is even more mind numbing

I think blizzard needs to give the player the choice. Like in some fighting games I've played, their matchmaking gives you the option to play people at your skill, widen the search range, or vs anyone for the fastest possible opponent. Something like this would appeal to different kinds of crowds.

its terrible. Ive just been crushing noobs all day. I dont mind one or two here or there but its giving me the illusion that the builds im testing are good when its really just a case of everyone else sucking.

I'm playing against a lot of gold players today. My placement match was against a high-diamond, low masters player who auto-quit his game, and my next match was against a plat player who auto-quit his game, but the rest of my matches were against mid-high golds who tried to play legit games (of varying quality). I'm platinum, and yesterday I lost a ton of games against low-high platinum players. However, I won the vast majority of my games against gold players today, which was a nice bonus but I'm still disappointed that everyone I played against are not a challenge. FYI, a 3 base Terran is better than a 2 base Zerg with no Hive tech fuck I'm drunk.

I don't like it here either. I've been facing high masters like 5 games in a row omg I had no chance against them. Checked their rank and they're like 15-4 and similar, some guy I checked was in the same top 8 as liquid'ret O__o

i just had a zvz, me platinum he gold and it was... well, very onesided. i think nobody involved had fun and having fun is one the main reason to play this game.

Keep in mind that you only get matched against those players if your MMR is that low.

Keep in mind that the match making process changed for this Season.

Im pretty sure this has to do with the changes in the match making system, otherwise it wouldnt have been 60k points for me and 35k for him in a normal macro game.
I also won 7 of my last 10 games vs other people in platinum, which shouldn't match me with a player one league under me.

So far, I'm feeling pretty positive about this. I never really got a chance to see how far I've progressed. My first match was against a platinum protoss and we had a few engagements in the middle of the map. As soon as I started putting up my third, he just started crumbling and the final engagement was 190 supply to his 110 supply.
Next match was against a high diamond protoss. We both did some early game shenanigans with units out on the map for nearly half the game. We both get on 3 base and max out at the same time. It was so crazy watching the replay. I lost the last engagement because I positioned badly and couldn't get effective emps so I lose.
Last match I played was against a diamond Terran but I guess he was matching up with all the low leagues. Dude fast expands and techs to BCs. I get a quick third a little after I see his FE and mass marine/viking. Either he didn't care or he hates TvT, I don't know.

Hey, I think I might like this.
As a platinum player, I often find myself in games where I just just win or get beaten. And sometimes it gets frustrating to have such close games. I would love to sometimes know that I dominated my opponent or got uterly smashed by another, because it keeps things interesting.
My opinion is that I often don't enjoy laddering anymore because of long, close games. And since I won't be roflstomping people all the time, I don't think it will get boring either.
So I'm looking forward to this little experiment :D

I dont know what they made of changes, but i already hate it. just got into gold after being silver last season. i have played 15 matches today, all of them i was matched with diamond and platinum, wtf? I used to be silver, i suck at both macro and micro, having an impressing 85% loss rate, and still not meeting anyone at my level. why change something that is working ...
|
I dont like this really, been playing Master players whole day and just getting stomped by every single one of them.
|
i just won against silverguy and in the statistics i was 80k points above him. i got placed in bronze.
now i am playing against gold players who only build hellions and dont know shit about the game...just like the last 4 seasons....fuck my life i will never get out of this bronze league

You don't know how the mmr thing works eh? You should search TL and read up on it.

Why are there so many people responding who clearly didn't read the OP?

Yeah, the random team games seem to be really messed up. 3/4 of the games that I play, my teammates are diamond, or platinum, even gold, matched up against 3 master, 1 diamond or similar teams. It's really kind of pointless when you know your teammates are outclassed - it's not even their fault. They should be playing games with players of their own skill level. Instead, they just get mad at losing horribly.
|
I'm not feeling the change at all for the moment. Still playing a fair mix from low diamond to mid master like previous seasons.
|
Hm.. I didn't feel the change yet. I've played a few nubs but that's normal, the vast majority of my games were still around my MMR.
