No More Unfairness: We Need a “Disable Premade Matchmaking” Option for Ranked Team Lobby!
The current ranked team matchmaking system is incredibly unfair. It makes no sense to allow a premade team to face a team of random players. This gives premades an overwhelming, insane advantage.
Premade teams almost always win ranked team games. They know each other, they communicate seamlessly, they speak the same language, and they execute strategies impossible for random teams.
A vast majority of premade teams use the same tactics: rush + cavalry spam or rush + archer spam and attack 3 vs 1. No one enjoys playing these kinds of matches, and it only drives away new players. We urgently need a “Disable Premade Matchmaking” option in the lobby for ranked team games to ensure a fair and fun experience for everyone.
While I agree with you that premade teams and lonely-wolves-teams shouldnt be matched togheter, I hardly see this happening. The playerbase is too small for that, unfortunately
that would be a complete success because nobody likes facing premade teams in team ranked! Nobody likes playing at a disadvantage! Nobody likes playing 6 minute team ranked games! Nobody likes facing a 3vs1! Nobody likes facing a team that only spams cavalry rush Nobody likes wasting their time facing 1700+ teams that always do the same troll play all the time because that’s boring!
It would cause issues like taking longer to get a game started and because of how the systems works in the games with expanding the Elo ranges after failing to get a game started within a certain amount time there would be bigger mismatches of Elo in games that finally do get started. AoMR doesn’t have nearly enough players to separate from randoms and premade teams.
How do you expect new players to get interested in playing team ranked matches? if when new players try to access team ranked, only to encounter premade teams of troll players who harass new players with toxic plays like 3 vs 1 rushes or spamming only cavalry, and on top of that, they insult you! No one can report them because they are a team of troll players
Does it seem fair that a random team of 1000 ELO new players faces a premade team of 1700 ELO troll players? Isn’t that just a waste of time? It’s more than obvious the 1700 ELO team will win. Wouldn’t it be better if premade teams only faced other premade teams? Why make players waste their time? or at least the freedom to choose not to face premade teams
No one wants to face premade teams in ranked matches because it’s a guaranteed loss, especially on water maps! For that very reason, no one wants to play water maps!
You make it seem like people que as 3s in a 3v3 to abuse other people. Thats how the game is meant to be played. If you want to throw a dart in the dark as to who your allies ill be and you are not 100% of the time happy with the outcome you gotta accept thats a downside to resfusing to do a bit of social work to play with other people of similar skill.
This is the only thing i agree with you on. Some people are petty and toxic and that shouldnt be tolerated by this community.
You seem to hold a grudge against people that are simply better at the game. They arent looking for a match to troll people most of the time. They are also looking to do with what they get. Usually better players like a challenge and want an even match. But if you are getting a team half your elo you gotta do soemthing to enjoy that match yourself. Same reason people impose self challenges in other games, you make due with what you have.
ITs true a coordinate team will beat a random one most of the time, even despite having lower Elo.
Sadly AOM is not big enough on players for this to be implemented and work in your favor. Not only would queu times go up but you can also just end up with a 1600+ guy in one team that still will win the game by himself very fast.
Low elos dont like to play them on 1v1 either so that isnt really the reason for it, but i guess its harder to win water if a random ally doesnt go water to begin with. On the other hand it is easier to win a game if you dont go water and just rush your opponent as 2+ people.
Pre-made teams are mostly made up of toxic players. They only make toxic plays like 3 vs 1, cavalry-only rushes, insults, unfair reports, and excessively unbalanced matches. Many players are fed up with pre-made teams. Please developers, make it so pre-made teams cannot play ranked. Pre-made teams are destroying the game. Nobody wants to play the game anymore because the game has become an overly toxic community. Currently, many ranked matches last less than 7 minutes; you enter a ranked game and there’s only cavalry rush or 3 vs 1 and that’s it, and all of that is thanks to pre-made teams. We are fed up with pre-made teams!!
Pre-made teams = excessively unbalanced matches, impossible-to-win matches, toxic community, cavalry-only spam, archer-only spam, insults, matches that last 7 minutes.
People play team games precisely because they can be premades. Putting this option would even prolong the already pretty hefty queue times. Playing against premades can be annoying but the solution to this is to put better communication tools for others people so they can coordinate better.
Second thread about the same topic. Ohh it got adressed nice.
Imagine not being able to play a game with ftiends because someone else doesnt Want to do social work to find people to play with. Its an RTS. Real time strategy game. The point is to make strategies. The point is to play with other people (in ranked team match making).
You have the opportunity to go for matches solo and be paired with other people, thats your choice. If you Want to put the social work to make a team and make strategies with them and play together well ofc you are going to do better, you are putting more effort.
If you wanna control all the variables in a match, make a lobby and do as you see fit.
Ita weird for you to get angry at people playing for a win in a competitive Mode.
This is the only part where i agree with you. Toxicity shouldnt be tolerated. Yet that is not exclusive to people that play on teams.
Theres discords, reddit, communities. Would encourage you to find others to play with rather than try to bring every thing else to what you like or not.
