So, I've noticed a lot of grief about the new matchmaking mechanics. For one reason or another people tend not to like it, and I can't honestly say I blame them. Now the thing is, I don't really think all this crying is really affecting anybody that matters. Pixonic is laughing their butts off at your frustration while they roll in the dough. They aren't going to "fix it", just as long as they get paid it ain't broke.
So if you really have as much of a problem with the MM as you say you do, then break it.
Repeatedly quit matches, AFK in matches while you're not actually playing, do beacon capping only and refuse to fire on baddies, do everything in your power to throttle your precious ranking straight to the floor...
Then, once you're a six-story tall death machine amongst a flock of defenceless lambs, slaughter them mercilessly and wear their bodies as trophies.
Break the game. Make it literally unenjoyable for any new players. Eliminate their market. Leave them no choice but to implement a different match-making algorithm.
Or, just, y'know, keep crying into the abyss.

I don't like the new MM but do see your view. Pix is running a business and if they lose $, the game will shut down anyway. I've said that before. I just disagree with the debates of some who worships the new MM on arguement that games should be played like this or played like that. It's a computer game. People play how they want. And some exploits the system... so? As long as it's not hacking which is criminal act. Pix will know how to fix these exploits anyway. Just that no one made anyone the 'police' of this game. To those who don't like the new MM can quit, but to those who don't like the loopholes existing in this game can also quit, yes? As for me complaining the new MM, this is after all the rant section  So complain away bwahahaha |

Well old coke would at least please the hipsters, and new coke would be just as well off... But not everyone drinks cola. As far as not giving them more money... Well, I disagree to an extent. They deserve to be paid for their work. And the blastronaut reference eludes me m8  |

Oh, forgive me, I think I do get the reference now.
And forgive me again, for I haven't made myself clear. I certainly don't dislike the game. I like it very much and have very much fun playing it. Merely, I was trying to offer a solution to those who dont, and feel helpless.
Granted, my efforts are a drop in the bucket (or pool in this case?) But even if 1/6th of players didn't like the new matchmaking, and subsequently throttled their ELO maybe higher ranking players wouldn't even notice... but you bet the newbies feel it.
But in any case, play the game however the heck you want! (: I'll happily continue fluxing between curb stomping everything and grinding out against lvl 10s either way.
