Overwatch Pairing Algorithm

Is it broken or something? I bought the game a week ago, I am 24 lvl’s and I get paired with teammates around my lvl +/-10 and almost ALL of my enemies are 200++!!! They obliterate us at spawn! I would understand if it happened every so often but not EVERY game for 2 consecutive days! I earn xp solely by killing their turrets ffs! Anyone has the same issue?

level doesnt equal skill. you should have known this or are you new to competitve games?

Nope, I am not new. But level equals time spent and experience. If a platinum player loser 5 consecutive games he should not be placed with a bronze player who also has also lost 5 consecutive games.
Anyway, since you characterized me in your answer by asking if I am new and not the topic itself you have lost any credibility.

The way it matches your is a mystery to me.
I’m in agreement with you OP

It is trying to make your winratio %50. If you won too many games before, now it is simply destroying you. Don’t try hard to win those unfair games because you can’t do anything.

if its competitive you are talking about, you might see players from platinum who joins a game in party with someone else who is bronze. the raiting becomes avreage of those in the party. and they will probably play with people who are gold rated.

for quick play i think theres some hidden skill raiting or something to keep your enemies at similar level but it seems a bit wonky and unpredictable, especially for arcade. often in arcade you can tell if you will win or lose within first minute or so.

The issue is not with level, level don’t match skill.

The issue is when into quickplay you’re matched vs diamonds/masters when you’re a midplat ._. but they refuse to fix this, If I wanna plat vs diamonds I can go comp and play against smurfs and people boosting their friend. (yes is sarcasm with a bitter truth)
