Lets Try To find out why Matchmaking is BAD

BD007

Hello guys, How are you all? I think everyone is doing fine.

Last couple of weeks i am seeing many threads and posts about matchmaking specially rank matchmaking.
Its my job to find out users feedback and pass to mlbb official.

One thing i need to point out that i am talking about solo players only.

And personally i found out similar issue with my account too.
In this season i just cant reach to mythic easily.
Every time i win 1 game i loose like 2-3 games minimum.
Now i want to find out why is this happening, and if this happening to you  guys too.
And possibly what is causing this.

Now about my personal experience.

In many matches i face someone who picks odd heroes at first pick.
Like rafa as first pick.
Or nata as first pick.
Or layla as first pick.

Now this type of pick at first pick make the team spirit goes a bit down.
Because your team has players who can play and showed win rate of meta heroes but instead you ignore them and pick non meta hero.
This type of players are worst than those who ban your favorite meta hero even it is your team's first pick.
Now lets find out why is this happening.


It is safe to assume that he/she might lost last game or many games even if he/she played well.
So he/she kinda gave up.
But that does not give him/her right to ruin others game.
To find out to fix this issue is to improve the punishment system.
If the punishment system is capabale enough to find out the issue and punish stirctly, people wont do that anymore.
Instead of 2 or 3 point deduction for poor gameplay, deduct 10 credits.
This will prevent many bad case scenereo.

Now about other type of players.
They do pick good heroes but they cant play well or just burden for the whole team.
In this case i dont think it is mlbb's fault.
But here are some ideas.
when the game ends, sometime we see a pop up msg about watching live.
So my suggestion is to modify that msg a bit. Instead of asking to watch random live gameplay.
Why dont ask specifically? i mean the hero he just played, ask him to see the live of that specific hero would make some difference.


Not really sure but in this season i see many mythic players are stuck in legend or epic.
Now this is not good.
That means either the new players are that much good
Or there are too many new players who cant coop up with the team thus the team loosing cause  the pro or old players cant reach mythic anymore.
Now this is not good and i need your opinion and poll about what do you think and what should mlbb has to do in order to make this better.
Thanks.

I have not seen any improvement in the system to prevent 2-2 occurrence in the below mythical links.
Avoiding these situations would greatly improve the Matchmaking system.

I haven't seen improvement on 2-2 system either actually lol.
It's worse now as losing -2 points for a loss when someone goes afk/idle, feeding, leaving match, toxicness.

Can you make a full comprehensive list of GOOD vs BAD heroes? And why?
Let's tackle the BIG problem from that angle. And then get moonton to delete those heroes or permanantly ban ALL those agreed heroes from RANK (Draft or GM and below).
If we accept that there is a list of GOOD and BAD heroes to play in Rank, then Moonton, disable ALL those heroes from Rank! lol
Clearly when we ban 4 heroes at the start of Draft Rank, it's for a reason! We feel these heroes are WAY over powered,
Then we get into this massive debate here on on the forums, people raise in-game CS ticket, etc etc etc. on which heroes need to be NERFED, BUFFED, blah blah blah.

Moonton, DECIDE on a list of ALL heroes to permanently ban in THIS SEASON (or season 12, season 13, etc) from Draft Rank (you can't ban heroes from GM and below Rank).

Below mythic, it is very hard to do 3-1-1. Because too many players.
And for 2-2, Need to observe to collect more data.

so 3-1-1 means i should do team of 5 vs 5? Else will be very hard to rank up to Legend and above?

Yeah 2-2, needs more data. How is the data being collected for this, and in what format?

In my opinion, picking meta heroes doesn't really that good but doesn't bad either. Yesterday, I met someone picks Lunox (we get first pick). But he played really bad and got bronze, good thing we still won the match. He, indeed, said that he isn't good with Lunox but we forced him to pick her. Sadly none of us have Lunox.
I mean, why don't just pick hero you're good with? Not because we should pick meta heroes. I know with meta heroes, the chance to win is higher. Same case with tank role, some people forced to pick tank, especially slot 5 when no one pick tank. I mean, yes, a chance to win with tank is higher, but what's the meaning of using tank if he can't play tank. That's also why I always say when someone shout "we need a tank" repeatedly especially to s5, "Don't force yourself to pick tank, just pick hero you're good with". I believe the chance to win is higher when someone pick a hero they're confidant with. Sometimes I meet a team pick 2 mm or 2 mages without tank or melee to backup, and some people already toxic since from the start. And I always say "Let them". And yes, we won.

sometimes if you are only good at 1 hero, and someone pick that, and also your 2nd preference hero got banned, etc? For this player with Lunox, maybe they are just new and SHOULDN'T have been trying Rank with that hero, OR their main hero got banned?
