Is Matchmaking broken? 5 solo queues vs a 3 stack + 2 solos?

Is Matchmaking broken? 5 solo queues vs a 3 stack + 2 solos?

Surely this isn’t a fair comp? Visibly you can see a synergy the solo queue team didn’t have with the opponent having a 3 man.

Surely Blizzard should be matching a team of 3 vs a team of 3?

Blizzard, this cannot help with regards to a fair match/good balance?

I have the code if you want to reach out, alternatively just look at the match prior to this post.

#Blizzard

What mode were you playing

If it’s open queue, none of that matters any more. You all just get lumped together.

Competitive - fillingthetextboxwithstuffsdfw3er42342

Open queue or role queue.

Role queueueueueeueueee

Probably just a time of day issue then.

Unlikely as it was 5pm UK time. The wait time was not long either.
The matchmaker looks like it has bugged.

Blizzard please investigate.

Good luck with that.

Thanks thanks thanks

This is normal in OW2, since the game is dead, overawtch will match you vs 5 premades with a fully random team, to save que times.

In open queue it can do this. Not in role queue.

What the op got, if true, is just an unfortunate evening (or fortunate if you prefer to play stacks)

But “ow is dead” people have been saying that for years, but it is still thriving.

It just keeps getting worse and worse after Brigite and becoming free.
Remove the smurfs and this games population will drop by 75%.

Match quality, thats subjective. But player numbers have been around the same amount for about 2 years.

A little exaggerated that, even with adding alt accounts to that lol.

Overwath youtubers cant even get 100k views anymore. They are all at 30-60k views. No twitch seen, no intrest in OWL as well. How is this triving? Seems like a cope.

OWL doesn’t exist anymore. And the Overwatch streamers that are still about aren’t exactly the most charismatic bunch.

Thriving because player numbers are still solid. People play the game, they don’t watch it.

Player numers are too irrelivent, you can remove chinese player since they are on their own server expluded from everyone else and they are a huge chunk of the players. EU is besically dead, long ques, bad matchmking cuz lack of players, engagement optimized matchmaking, free to play as well with predatory micro transactions, they also screwed over the russian players to be cucks for Ukraine so even less players that arent even involved in the stupid war.

Steam numbers are the global count of players, divide that into regions and its a supper sad story for a game that was once of the same level as league of legends and others.

Again, I really dont see how this is triving.

Because the only metrics that matters for them are active player numbers, and money made. It is doing ok on both.

steam numbers are just the players on steam. not battlenet. not console

Console players might as well be illrelivent, its a whole dif game and community a non competative one as well.

Idk, if you are a gamer looking to game and no life, this just isnt the game anymore.

Stupid balanced and no-skill inclusions just took that alway. The game is just static atm.

OW is only surviving on FOMO and predatory microtransactions as such.

If OW was triving blizzard would flex with numbers and they dont cuz its not, all they can do is scap as much money as they can for investors and share holders.

Static is probably the best way to describe it tbf.

Whilst numbers are decent, they haven’t really changed much since the initial launch spike.

They really don’t care how you play it, or how seriously you take it. As long as you play, and spend.
