Overwatch matchmaking

Hey everyone. I started playing overwatch and im only level 9.
These days, overwatch is taking too long to find a match, like 3-4 minutes each time and when i get a match the other players levels are between 20-50. I would like to know if there’s anything I can do.

Nothing you can do, since it’s and old game most players started playing a long time ago and it takes some time to find new people to match you with, I know how long queue times can be and it will stop when you reach level 40-50.

damn that’s f*cked up since I can barely see my enemies before dying XD.
Just keep losing games and when I win it’s because I got carried by my lvl 35 mates.

Most of the “new” players are smurf accounts anyway.

If you look around, you will find that the difference between level 9 and level 20 is negligable. Yeah, it’s double, but the majority of players are well over 300. There just aren’t that many people who start the game every week, meaning you have to get matched with those starting within that month.

Also, try and forget about that level, it means very little. Yes, playing the game for longer means more experience, but the general idea is to match people according to skill, not according to time played - 2 numbers that don’t always correlate.

Get used to it… the waiting time is going to get better, the game quality won’t
