The match making system, it’s always either you crush the other team, or you get crushed in 9 out of 10 matches, why does this game have this matchmaking system for solo queue?
Why do you have to have a 5man team to have fun matches?
Sure blizzard abandoned this game years ago, but surely if they invested in a programmer that programmed a better matchmaking system it would be good for the game, when it comes to MOBAS i personally find the gameplay of HoTs the most fun.
During my 9 year old HoTs account, i’ve noticed clearly that in ranked solo vs quick match solo, you tend to get the worst possible teammates on your team which is not really enjoyable, due to this i have had more fun in quick match altho i prefer ranked.
What do you players who play solo think about the matchmaking system in this game? surely you agree that HoTs has the most fun gameplay out of all mobas that’s why we are here? but this mm system is horrible.
Also allowing 5man premades to crush solo teams is kinda not fun dont you think?

Best moba.
I don’t play either of those but I still have opinion and I think that qm should be solo only, at least have a solo mode.
I’m also of the opinion that there shouldn’t be a matchmaking mechanism for that, should be full random. Good and bad will all be random then which I feel is fair.
Those are my uneducated opinions.
I`m more worried about the player base.
In the lower leagues, i dont think any of them watch tournaments or streams or anything.
its just anti climatic even from the start you know your gonna hear those kill sounds just seconds in.
It is clear in the way they ignore camps, unnecessary brawling and lack of knowledge about what builds are viable. i mean i get laughed for picking bunker with blaze or wave of force with li ming.
Should make it mandatory to watch tournaments or something… i dunno…

In QM matchmaker is useless and horrible, in ranked however there is literally a draft and ban system which means usually you will get a well balanced team, however there of course are instances where you get someone on your team who doesnt draft accordin to what you need. Something i have experienced myself a lot this ranked season. But that is the players fault and their lack of abilities to adapt to what is needed in the draft, not the game itself. If you can actually get a 5 man team-up then of course you will have a better draft because you can communicate with everyone and make sure that everyone accepts their role, rather than the strangers who goes. ‘‘ill play whatever i want! Dont make tell me what to play!’’
There is a reason its called bronze hell, i have seen many players making absolute horrible talent builds or even picking heroes that are easily countered. (prime example, i loose my sanity when i see someone insta draft a butcher player and then sees the enemy draft Johanna, Lili, and Artanis all with blind effects. But that is sadly just life, not everyone is as well knowledged in talent builds, counters and good draft combos.
The games biggest problem was premades. I understand that people want to play with their friends but you simply cannot trust people to be honest when doing this.
I’ve yet to see a moba that bans premades entirely… I think it would be brave to do that but you’d get a lot higher quality matches.

The people that made the MM are clearly incompetent people that knows nothing of the game. They shouldn’t be allowed to be working in the gaming industry
I just had a match with:
Team 1:
Dehaka
Imperius
Thrall
Greymane
Hanzo
Team 2:
Li-ming
Nazeebo
Azmodan
Sonya
Kel’thuzad
This game biggest problem is unable to rejoin adequately. Also replace alone character with competent AI, or add function to join games where someone left to fill the spot. Give some rewards for players who fill the holes.
