    What's with all the godly Rep 0's?

    A TON of matches lately it seems like its matched up with a bunch of noobs but they're insanely good, I mean I'm only rep 17 and my highest class is rep 9, but I'm not terrible but these guys are on a whole other level and its alllll the tiiiiime!!! Why is this happening? Its really screwing up the matching BAD and its completely unfair.

    Are these guys who bought new games just so they could appear to be new to the game? Smurfing/Seal clubbing? Because its getting way too out of hand now. I can't even get more than 1 takedown half the time because its an entire team of them. Its making it literally unplayable.

    Do you play on PC? Those players could be console player who bought the €15 version on Steam.

    Yeah its PC. Its just insane, one guy and 2 of his friends we looked them up, they'd been playing for 32m, sometimes less and cruuuushed everyone, top 5% in everything and it happens so often with so many different players I just can't even play anymore. They're THAT good, one highlander took on the whole team the whole match and never died a single time, and his 3 teammates were probably a group and were the same. I just can't see this being a good things for the game. Luckily I suppose eventually they'll move up to fighting on their own level but right now its just killing gameplay. I can't see any new players wanting to continue playing when even experienced players get smashed that hard. I worry about the player base.

    Or maybe you're just severly low skilled ? Not as good as you want to believe ? Think about it .

    The skill ceiling of this game is pretty high!

    those guys will quickly be matched vs better players. so dont worry.

    There are 2 ways to die.
    -1v1 vs a better player in that round.

    -or to bad tactics, where you allow yourself to go 2-3 v 1. i still got alot to learn on that one.

    one advice or 2, which you did not ask for; check ekspert guides for your class. it helps a lot.

    and if a HL rips you up, spend 1 hour vs the lvl 3 HL bot. i had to spend that time on shaman to turn that corner.

    im a sadomasochist so i first mained valk rep 11 and now orochi rep 8.

    i sucked a lot but now i think i can beat just about anybody with them.

    so keep at it

    Probably someone who played on one system jumped to another system. I had this game on Xbox and PS4 and I smashed people when I started off on PS4 after a month or so on Xbox. Since I didn't want to grind myself back up on PS4, I stopped playing it. Exclusively Xbox for this game now.

    Lol if I were you I wouldn’t talk to someone else about been low skilled... remember when we were discussing centurion and you were so certain that you had more skill than me, but then the stats proved that wrong and you disappeared real quick...
