Basically i'll try and keep it simple

Ever since I got Mastery 9 on Ne Zha, I've been getting almost nothing but my *** handed to me.
The teams I'm getting are horrible and have no synergy at all (Not saying the players suck).
Before hitting mastery 9 though my games were fairly even, more wins than losses, more kills than deaths.
But now it's the otherway around.
Just today i've had 2 wins and 8 losses so far.
Playing with friends wont work for me since all my RL friends are non-gamers (well they play xbox and playstation).
The fun great people I met on my way to level 30 have seem to stopped playing.
And coming across new people isnt working either.

I was on a roll untill this point in the game, and sometimes end up with 10 deaths.

This is in Arenam by the way.
I feel the matchmaker is overestimating me, or groups me with people who are new to the game for some reason.

I'm just wondering what's going on.

Well I just know me and 2 guys without god ranks just handed our enemies their ***es on a golden plate made out of all their level 10 legendary skins >:D

I've had games like that, for some reason the tides have just changed and I'm on the high mastery side and losing =/
Perhaps its just extreme bad luck, I don't know.

Well my matchmaking is a bit weird too. As a lvl 20 you don't expect to play against some lvl 30 (reconigsed it too the beta ymir skin) and even win.

When I was fairly new. I thought I was the ****. I won every game by such a wide margin it wasn't even funny. Then when I hit around level 25, it went downhill. In that one game I went from playing complete scrubs, to decently good players. So then I really had to learn how to build, the meta, all the other good ****. Now; finally, I do pretty well again.

So you just need to practice my friend. And practice more. Then more. And a little more after that. And learn from your mistakes.

It's not so much me as it is the entire team.
For some reason the group synergy is just horrible, I end up in groups with barely to absolutely no communication, people running in chasing enemies while there are 3 others coming their way, then expect someone like me to jump in and save them, which stupidly enough I end up doing and get killed myself in the process.
Again, not saying I'm great, but it just feels like the groups I end up in are insanely different synergy and skill wise than what I got a couple of days ago.
I've had groups with players that just complimented eachother, and even if we lost, I really didn't mind cause I know we gave it our best.
But when you continuesly keep losing cause everyone in the group dies 10 times than something really feels off in the matchmaking.
And I heard they did infact admit that it is not working as its suppose to.

Perhaps I do indeed suck.
But going from good synergized teams to teams with absolutely no synergy just doesn't make sense to me.

I've had this for several days. Just my last game in siege we had three people at 1-5/6/6 and one person at 2-5 and myself as Athena of all people at 7-1. Literally nearly every single game I've played for the past week has been everybody but me [sometimes me too!] going negative - VERY negative. It feels like I'm back at level 1 all over again. Maybe they've had an influx of new players and the match-making is weird? For reference I've been level 30 for ages now with masteries in all gods but Osiris so It's not like anything changed on my acc that would affect this.

Well come to think of it, it actually started when they changed the Arena queue time from 3 to 2 minutes.
Perhaps they changed something in the matchmaking (silently) and totally screwd it up.

Could be, I noticed some of the lobby times were decreased. Maybe as a result the more frequent games = a more desperate match-making system, so its just randomly taking newer players and putting them in the same games as older ones. I could be wrong, it's harder to tell since they removed visible god masteries and replaced it with an optional logo.

How convenient, I came here to make this very thread. Every match I play, one of two things happen: My team is incompetent/foreign/full of *******s and we lose because of the issues that come from having a team full of idiots/foreigners/*******s. If that doesn't happen then the enemy team is comprised of nothing but legendaries/hackers/a premade team. Either way we have no chance. I'm only allowed about two wins a month. When those two games come along then it's either against a team who fit the description of the first type of match, or the god of gaming possesses my body and I pull out a 33/2 match and wipe the floor with them. Something needs to be done about the matchmaking system, because it obviously doesn't work how it is now.
