moses , Your right in terms of that game, sorry I should have explained better.
My win rate has dropped through the floor over the last few days. Normally running slightly above 50% (peaks and troughs +/- 10%), but has been in the 20's for the last 2 days. Hit 22% last night currently 28%. I could count on one had the amount of times its dropped below 40% since I started playing the game, until now of course.
I am playing a lot at the moment (for me anyway), running over 2k activity. Trying to do the event properly so playing games to win and picking up the tasks through regular play, no tanking or fading or fanking or whatever its called. Not running a beacon capping hanger for those tasks either, the only bot that ever changes on tasks in swapping a Rog for a lance.
I would not normally give a monkey's about the stats other had I'm trying to get that second cheattrain and need to string 21 wins together. Sat down yesterday after dinner to make a dent in the 21, only manged six in about 4 hours of playing.
There could be a few reasons for it:-
- Luck of the Irish has finally run out? (I'll try and find a leprechaun and rub him on my ipad, I hear that works).
- I'??m playing crap? To be honest that would be the best answer, I can fix that, but I'??m consistently the top end of the damage tables certainly don'??t feel like I am having many overly bad games. Getting loads of clan invites, which I know mean FA but I tend to get more when I am playing well (or maybe they just like my activity level, IDK).
- I have climbed too high on the backs of clubbed experts and the machine is finally beating me back down? Again, would not bother me in the slightest. But its not actually beating me back down the leauges, perhaps a little bit, but I am normally the top half of the damage tables on the losses so not dropping many points.
- The player base is too small now for the MM to force a 50% win rate?
I think it'??s more the last one if I am honest. Let me explain.
I have been playing a lot in the evenings GMT (in Europe), not sure what the peak times are globally, but I keep seeing the same players over and over both on red and blue. Almost feel like I know them at this stage, the pool is not big all (playing mostly BR). They are all champs, good players, lots of my games are really good, some very fair down to the wire games. But then there are the squads, seeing lots more or them, every second or third match I played last night was against a top 100 clan squad. While there was the odd upset most ended predictably enough. (Again I don't mind this one bit, I actually really enjoy those games, they are always going to end one way, but I like taking what scalps I can and having a go at them.) But in the up until a few days ago the MM would through you some easy games (yes some experts would get clubbed) to keep the win rate at the magic 50%. Now all the games I get are either 50/50 nail biters or maxed DIESS walk overs, hence win rate down the toilet.
Anyway, it is what it is. Just need to play more, upgrade some ?poo-poo? and just be better.
P.S. There is also some funny stuff going on with clan drops. Had a lot of weird games where I am pulled in as the last random and then one or other of the red of blue squad just drops straight away. Had one match were I had to face some Russian squad all on my own? Must be trying to do synced drops and firetrucking it up?
