I’m registrating the best blitz mode on my next alternative character, I get 8 wins in a row and raise my MMR to 2.2k, but all this time I’m playing in teams with 1.7k MMR, and in the next 9th game I lose with my MMR of 2.2k in a team with 1.8k MMR (for some reason I don’t get thrown to opponents with 2.2k MMR) and they give me -410 MMR, and I want to ask why I was never given opponents and allies of my MMR. So I wanted to know why it happened that having 2.2k mmr I was the only one who play with 1.8k mmr team, and how can I continue to play this mode after that?
I’d attach a video and screenshots, but in 2026 I can’t do that on Blizzard forums.
I can’t even reply to you because of an error, so I’ll respond to everyone one by one in a single post and provide more information.
I queue up with a 2200 MMR, end up in a 1700 MMR team (the second player after me has that MMR, and it only goes down from there)—so that’s why I got thrown there if I’m playing solo (were there no players at my MMR??? Let the matchmaking take 15–20 minutes, but at least give me opponents at my MMR level, rather than making me play against guys with lower MMR), and the result is that after the loss, they just took away 450 MMR from me for no reason—why did I even bother leveling it up just to lose in a single game because my team was weaker than the other one (and I wasn’t even playing at my MMR level)? All I can say is, the player and opponent matching is great.
For some reason, this didn’t happen with my first two characters—the matching was normal and balanced by MMR, and everything’s fine there now—but with my third character, the game is just unplayable: my personal MMR goes up, but the teams and opponents don’t.
I couldn’t even reply to your messages because of the issue, and I have to rewrite the post due to this bug

You don’t have to ask why the MM is garbage. You have to accept that they don’t want us to PvP at any level, but they afraid the backlass if they cut the content.
So they take even the good things of PvP and slowly make it as much garbage as possible with queue times , MM , balancing every 5 years … till we will just stop playing.
That’s why…
What i noticed and (several other people i talked to after blitz games) is the following.
When you hit a win streak of around 3 sometimes 4 games with people who communicate and make callouts - pings. You all of a sudden get hit with a ZERO comms lobby, (sometimes one or max 2 people communicate). The rest No response, you try to coordinate with those other people and do what you can but the other 5 … do not respond to pings callouts or instructions. They just act like bots basically! (not capping bases or not moving to uncapped bases just to try) For me it happened the first time around 2.4k MMR with a deep losing spiral of zero comms, all the way down to 1.5k (i was stubborn and tried to break the lose streak by retrying that day)
Today i talked to a Priest who was the only one communicating in a Kotmogu, he experience the same thing today, 3 wins followed by 6 losses in a row with me being in his last one (my second game at 2.1k mmr today). I’ve talked to a few people lately and they experience the same thing. It usually happens (from the info i got from them and my own data ) around 2.1k - 2.2k sudden ZERO Comms Lobbies. You fall down to around 1.6k where you meet ppl that communicate, you climb 1.7 - 1.8 …. at 1.9 the games are getting better ( both teams fight for a victory) and here a loss is justified, one mistake you or someone in your team makes which is fine since you actually played PvP and a loss still feels good the other team beats you it’s fine, a second loss fine it’s fun…. and then at 2.1 - 2.2 it starts over again No Comms and it just repeats like a cycle…
Someone on my server was in the same cycle until he had around 300 Blitz games played this season … then he started to have almost none of those no comms games and was able to progress
It almost feels like what i said earlier, bots (like Traning grounds was actually to train their bots
instead free gear). Is there a shortage of players in a certain bracket that they are trying to cover up? Dragging people down to stay in a certain bracket so that you encounter more humans
it sounds weird but … maybe …
Mm is garbage? Mm hunt is anything else but garbage dude. Why is it always coming from dh , paladins and hunters that complain about?
You are telling half story .what was the mmr of the other enemy team ? If both teams have similar mmr then there is no problem .
There is not a single pvp game where the developers strictly will only match players in a team very close to eachother mmr.
Even overwatch 2 has sometimes people matching from different mmr in a team together .
You sir have what we say in common language as “skill issue “ .mm hunter is far from garbage this season .
it takes 30 placement games before the MMR rating levels out
the game wants you to be at a 50% win rate
but MMR stops dropping by 150 each games once you have played exactly 30 games
dont look at your rating, just queue up , on your 31st game you’ll notice no more 150 MMR drops
but you will get +30 or -35 mmr
my shammy is 2100 rating with 2700 MMR in blitz with 35 games played
when i lose i lose 35-40 mmr
when i win i get about 35
People at 2400 MMR are still unable to use Heroism. I get it all the time in my games.. 1 mage and one Resto sham couldn’t even use heroism. I just don’t understand someone that are 2400+ and still not able to use one simple button.
ahhahaha… Match Maker!!! MM. Marksman is kick azz i play one too!
