Anyone else struggling to enjoy the game due to insane skill gaps and horribly lopsided matchmaking? (feddit.nu)

Out of every 10 games I play, maybe one of them is a close, even game where everyone is on roughly the same skill level - and that's probably me being generous.

Almost every game has people on either team not just losing their lane but going something like 0-17. I know it's early alpha and has had a huge influx of players recently so maybe it's to be expected to some extent, but even back in my Dota days matchmaking was never this bad. This is like, public WC3 Dota 1 lobbies level.

How are you guys finding it? Anyone break through the MMR barrier into a point where you're getting consistently good games? How long did it take, and what MMR? (you can check here

Even games are amazing, they are the reason I keep coming back to this game despite most matches being frankly more frustrating than fun.

It was the same for me, but the last five or so games my teams were stomped. I think it's because I stayed in a match after everyone had been disconnected which maybe screwed up my rank, I dunno. Anyway, I stopped playing because that was a bit too much to be worth it.
