I went from 67% Victory to 34% in 2 half days. Every single team I ended up on has pretty much lost. I had very bad matchmaking teams with top gold players vs low silver players. I had teams which don't get beacons and sit fireing artillery . I still managed 2.7 kill rate per game sometimes I have had 8 to 6 beacons a game still loose.
Has this happen to anyone else.
I'm on long streak of loses
I guess the challenge is to get victory rate back up,
But I feel I learned nothing from the losses apart from wishing i could kill my own team m8's

Yes, MM will occassionally seem to have it out for you.
Post your hanger and plenty will be happy to look at it and suggest any adjustments that might help.

Yeah, I swear the MM tries to frustrate me with long strings of MM fails, hoping I'll respond by spending money. It eventually gives up, so just keep at it and focus on how well you did with what you had.

Have you changed anything in your hanger? A bot or wep upgrade or change? Are you playing at a different time than previously? A seemingly small change in your line up can blow up MM, especially if you do something that increases your hanger score.
The other thing is that if the player pool is low when you are on, you will be pulled into all kinds of crazy matches (overpowered to underpowered) as MM tries to form squads.
Cheers

Get hangar help. If you don't play in a good clan or platoon, below low gold, this game is all about carrying the game on your own, with a little help from blues.
Even with bad streaks, you shouldn't go below 40%. So I guess your hangar might need some optimising for your tier.
And yes,MM does seem to match you with a streak of noobs at times. Sometimes I see 4 blue Natashas, I quit and start a new game, gets me out of their rotation so I don't have to queue with them and I don't have to wonder if they are humans or monkeys.

I thought it was only me? I went from 78% to 42% in 2 days It was like toucher, I watch my teammate pass a beacon straight I capture 7 beacons an still lost Then to see most of these guys higher level than me but their win rate were 46% an under
It took me 4days to make my stats look good again I'm 60% right now ?

That's not called good team. That's just a team, using the best light bots available, to bully some noobs...

I've been hovering in the 50s-low 60s in win percentage --- can't break mid 60s.
I play random in GT/TT, so it's a MM roll of the dice every match. MM looks to working for me, as I suspect Pix wants 50% win rates fir randoms.

Matchmaker seems to have it in for me, as well. I've started losing more games, not because it's putting my up against that much stronger opponents, but because I keep getting matched with really lousy teams. Like me and one other person trying to carry the whole team. Me and someone else will have top 1 and 2 with 2-300k damage, and the rest of my team will have 50k or less. It's very frustrating.

These bad MM streaks can be demoralizing. The only positive thing I take from them, is that it gives me an excuse to switch up something in my hangar or even drop into silver tier to get my confidence back up.

Been happening to me too lately.
No bot or weapon above level 9 in my hanger (yet), but I've been getting steamrolled by maxed out teams. Part of me enjoys the extra challenge but the matches are ultimately always lost through their sheer brute force. Amazing what a difference those extra few levels make.

I run a low gold hanger. Recently swapped out my 6/9 TT boa for a 6/8 DB rhino, and got hit by MM craziness as well. Win rate fell from 75ish to 40 something in 2 days. I don't mind the low win rate itself but it just takes so long to complete the tasks (had to do 20 games to complete "win 8 battles task" LOL). Keep getting placed in teams where 1-2 blues bail (0 dmg, 0 beacon) and remaining blues are 3~4 bot hangers; when I do win, it's because I got bumped in with max hanger dudes so I get zero Au. At times it does feel like MM is out to get me, but doubtful that the algorithm is capable of targeting individual players in particular? (I'm not a programmer so don't know) I think it usually happens when you change something in your hanger and it takes a while for MM to figure out where you belong. Platooned with clanmates for a few rounds and win rate back up to north of 70% now.

Shields beacome virtually impenetrable using plasma and your normal DB bots take 2 salvos to kill a rhino and 1 1/2 to kill a Griffin. You are also so very low damage in midrange and trying to out gun other midrangers is not possible. Pretty much renders your bots useless overall.

Ok i teamed up with 1 clan member and did not change 1 bot or wepon.
We played 2 3 hours and i got back to 54% i belive we lost 1 game in like 10 on average.
And teams m8s were lot better
We were both getting gold and top spots in team.
Before i had 3 Nasha Zenit team m8s next game 2 Nasha Zenit team m8s then 1 Nasha Team m8 then 2 Nashas Zenit team m8's etc.
