Is it just me, or is this whole... matchmaking forum... more about finding teams than actually what its name states... "matchmaking"? I mean, matchmaking to me sounds more like the algorithm that is used on LoL to pair teams together. Which is obviously flawed. After watching HotshotGG streaming for a while now, I have noticed that he is often paired with ridiculous feeders, against a very solid team. This may seem balanced because a very good player is paired with mediocre to bad players, but this is WHY the bad players are high enough to be paired with someone like hotshotgg. They get carried. I often see a certain character called Domho in hotshot's solo queues, and i apologize ahead of time if any of you are Domho, but he doesnt deserve his 1500 rating. I understand that teamwork is everything, and that is a bit of an oxymoron in solo queue, but come on. A lot of hotshot's games, he literally carries the entire team with Nidalee, sometimes going 19/1/10, while the rest of his team feeds. This is the issue, and I am not sure how to correct this.
Wow tangent. As for the whole "finding teammates" forum, I'm glad that DEWO finally made a sticky for it. So that blogs like this can be recognized in all the chaos.
