I've noticed it especially in the Siege game mode. On average I have around a 60% Win rate across arena/conquest/assault/3v3 joust. For siege that win rate is 30%. In alot of the siege games I play I'm the only one going positive in my entire team. Either my team mate in my lane or both team mates in the other lane die within ~2 minutes of the game starting and then continue to die until around ~8 minutes in by which point we've lost both lanes and are completely screwed. This has happened to me so many times that I can literally predict how the loss will go by this point.

This is why I stopped playing 3v3 joust. I now average 5 losses in a row before finally getting a win because the matchmaking either pairs me with poorly-skilled/newer players to have me fight absolute pros. I'm level 30 with rank 10 AMC that has 3.0 KD/R and rank 10 loki with 2.5 KD/R. I shouldn't be getting teammates of poorer skill than me.

I've found the matchmaking is more generous in higher populated modes like arena, though. I still lose sometimes, but at least it boils down to actual good matches rather than which team is competant enough to steamroll the game. I worry, however, that the lack of league arena means the population will continue to dwindle.

I really don't want to start getting into conquest, I hardly play that mode if at all, and my lack of understanding of the meta is going to cost my team dearly.

This happened to me ever since I hit level 19. Just one loss after another. And to top it off, it happened during the free gems/double favor weekend.

None of my teammates want to communicate, I had an Anubis on my team who didn't speak english in a siege match AND he didn't build any items at ALL except sprint and some other active. I had another anubis who autolocked, went 0-10 and kept calling the rest of the team noobs.

I used to have a 70% win rate in joust, now it's more like 40%. I keep playing against players who have level ten masteries and legendary skins, while my teammates and I had level three or four masteries. I've pretty much stopped playing except for match of the days since No one cares too much if they win those or not.

I just posted a thread about this in the technical section... good to know I'm not the only one. It's like Smite has selectively picked players to stick with a$$ teammates. I went from having an amazing win/loss record to being in the 40% range in every game mode. It can't just be my fault as I'm usually the best on my team every single frickin game. It's weird man...

All that I ask is that premades with 3+ to a party, get matched only with other 3+ party premades.
