Subject: Does Matchmaking not work anymore...?

Been in nothing but lopsided games the past couple of days. Nothing even resembleming parity in my last few games. I mean, it's always been a bit...loose with who gets matched with whom, but lately it seems really bad.

It's always been like this. Truskill doesn't exist outside Arena.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

New kids got Reach for christmas and second accounts using Christmas gold deals.

Search for skill.

Squad Slayer just makes it so parties of 4 and 5 only match other parties of 4 and 5. That's all.

Ah, allright then.

Guess I shouldn't be surprised by those games then, considering Reach's sterling record matchmaking elsewhere.

"She is starting to damage my calm."

I gave up on Matchmaking a long time ago. Players of exceptionally low skill like me don't stand a chance getting a fairly matched game. There's always several players who are exceptional and take great glee in killing me repeatedly. I know there are plenty of bad players like me out there, why can't we be matched together?

Because there is not Truskill, or even a good Ranked playlist (lolArena), so the best players get to match up with even the worst or newest players. It's not fun for either side.
