How many SVP’s until I get to say it actually IS my team’s fault

You know your team dog shit when you go 2 and 5 and still get svp

I think 2 more just to establish a pattern

I am also on this same loss streak.

my goal is to de rank from gold to bronze 3 this week.

😂

Just stop playing after your second or third loss in a row

2-5 and still got SVP?! After that point, you have full confidence to blame it on your teammates cause wtf

I feel this me and my friend play support and there’s only soooo much we can heal and support 😭😂

I’m seeing a trend here, I’m not happy this is happening to you but I’m happy that more and more people are becoming aware of the matchmaking system and eventually I think they will address it and change it, I haven’t even began playing ranked yet this season because of this exact thing you posted and I’m not really willing to go from solo queuing to playing with others just to rank up, I’d rather enjoy my time by myself on quick play but sometimes I get a bit bored with quick play

How some of yall see this and still go straight to blaming OP😂

Not to play devil’s advocate, but getting svp doesn’t mean you were playing properly, just that you have decent stats.

You could be chasing kills, doing a lot of damage and inflating your score, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you were a good team player.

Stats mean nothing in competitive games, specially on a game like this.

You can watch competitive CS and a guy goes 6/10 on a pro team, but those 6 kills were more important than the 12 kills someone else did, or rather, those 6 enabled the other 12, being entry kills or forcing bad positioning from the other team etc.

As an example, if you are consistently killing another dps over the whole match, you stack kills, but they are rather useless for the match if nothing else happens, a defending team can easily stand its ground with one dps less unless the team that got the advantage takes action immediately, but people rarely notice the other team is missing a dps, usually only the one who killed him is aware (this would be fixed with communication but… yeah).

If you only have 5 kills but all of them are a healer at the start of a teamfight, you more than likely won 5 teamfights thanks to those, even if you instantly die after killing the healer, now one team is a healer down, the other is a dps down, the second wins if both teams play similarly, and you only got your 5 kills while the other dps get 5 every teamfight for doing the cleanup, which could result in a extreme difference of you being 5/5 and him being 25/0, even if you killed both healers and died every time, you’d be 10/5 and he’d be 20/0, looking at stats he’ll get mvp without doubt, but the teamfights were won because of you, every time.

Now, that doesn’t mean he is useless either, the cleanup HAS to be done, but you enabled it with your kills, meaning your 5 kills were the most impactfull, people rarely appreciate this until you are at extremelly high ranks.

The algorithm deciding MVP/SVP is bad aswell, now I’m not saying you played bad, you have decent kill/death ratio and aren’t dying 1x/min like many people do, so this isn’t a slight at you.

However, I often see things like a DPS with more kills, assists, last hits and less deaths lose MVP to a Moon knight who inflates his damage numbers due to having Area of Effect damage on his primary.

The algorithm deciding your highlight also sucks. 8/10 times it’s not my best play but just the play where I get the highest numbers on a heal/damage/… Instead of actual good skill/ult usage to win a teamfight.

Edit: those same 12-7 moon knights then flame the 18-5 Hela for doing less damage, while they undoubtedly had higher participation towards actually making kills.

Maturing in this game is realizing that just having high stats does NOT mean you are playing well with the team. There is a lot of context needed to properly understand stats.

Sounds like its time for a break. I stop if I lose 2 in a row, because I start playing worse after losing multiple times in a row. Makes the game a lot healthier. I’ll just go fuck around in quickplay

Matchmaking is ass in this game.

About that many.

Im having a similar issue solo queuing. Yesterday i went 41-14 on punisher in a game of domination and still loss. I had another game where i went 2-5 on luna and was my teams ace and SVP. Im flexing as both a duelist and strategist and every games my team finds a way to fall short. Its super frustrating

Needs more assists *shrug
