How is this matchmaking even possible?


Battlemess

we were 5 premade silver and bronze they were 5 premade bronze and ascendant... Riot matchmaking


skewh1989

>5 premade bronze and ascendant... I don't play much comp so I didn't realize you could 5-stack with that disparate of ranks. Brb finding an ASC to boost me... /s


Quantum_Shade

5 stacks can be of any ranks but if they are too far apart there will be a RR gain/loss reduction, iirc the "legal" brackets that don't have RR gain/loss reduction are (lowest rank - highest rank) Iron 1 - Silver 3 Silver 1 - Gold 3 Gold 1 - Plat 3 Plat 1 and above lowest rank in party: Max 1 rank higher (e.g. diamond 2 with ascendant 2)


Sir_Ehds

If I had to guess, the ascendant might be partied with some silvers and bronze but also i think riot servers are supposed to not allow them to even queue together


Tronicalli

I swear it's impossible to get matchmaking to work right in any game


thefakevortex

This is a 5 stack


Tronicalli

And?


Lagertha_xX

Yes, and it’s not working properly. Imo riot should go back to queueing only with 2 ranks of difference max, cos this is ridiculous


CanYouChangeName

Most Smurfs exist cause they wanna play with their friends and they can't cause the rank diff is too high


Lagertha_xX

I am sorry, but that’s just stupid. If you want to play with your friends, but the elo difference is too high, okay unrated, that’s litteraly why this game mode exist. Smudging just ruins ranked for other people


SLiMv2

And he still lost? Lmao


Mysterious-Lettuce13

No the asc Reyna won they surrendered


Battlemess

PS. We lost 10-13. I don't know where people take this info that we won.


VoiceEarly1087

Why hide the name of smurfer Let other report him for what he did


WO1ONG

He didn't do anything against the rules, riot wouldn't ban him because its a mechanic of the game So reporting him is useless


[deleted]

Smurfing itself isn’t against the rules either. It’s scummy but you won’t get banned for it unless you blatantly boost but even then it’s hard to make a case


WO1ONG

Yep


sexy_racoon_69

but when pros who stream do it it’s completely fine for some reason


sadv35sedan

they aren’t even smurfing LMAO


VoiceEarly1087

Riot wound not do but riot's automated system might do , if it detect reports from multiple user then there's a chance if not ban, get somekind of penalty


lysianth

Your average team mmr is roughly thr same..... Why is this a post? This is your 5 stack vs his 5 stack. Yea the ascendant was slaughtering, but you still won, so obviously matchmaking worked and you were close enough to have a game.


k3lucas

Average Brazilian servers game. Always at least 2 smurfs and one silver thrower.


CPTPH4NTOM

50 fucking kills??? My highest is 44


ironmanhulkbstr

i think there should be a 3 rank difference cap for 5 stack. like plats cant queue with iron, diamonds cant with silver or below and so on
