Dude these games were so fun. I was casting high elo Rioters playing Clash and they slammed their whole bracket. Felt like Blitz never missed a single hook dude was a GOD HAND.

Even tho I like to talk trash about champs I believe are overloaded, I'd like to ask y'all to keep all the bullshit in my twitch chat and not harass anyone cause u don't like a champ. That shit ain't cool.

Good thing you didn't pay too much attention to my lane phase in games 1 or 2 :)

hey my Clash team played against this Riot team yesterday too! they were a team of basically all Grandmasters against a plat Clash bracket, and they crushed all of us in under 18 minutes...absolute shit tier matchmaking

Yeah yesterday's bracket was weird, looked into it after and found an oversight in top MMR tier matchmaking for Clash, which should be fixed going forward.

Out of curiosity, did that affect lower-level matchmaking as well?

It wasn't awful, but my team was historically all Tier IV (the highest rank any of us has achieved is Gold IV--we're all currently Bronze/Silver) and we were put into Tier III against Plats and even a Master.

Unlikely it's the same issue, sorry. This specifically affected matchmaking for the highest mmr folks, and we saw the matchmaking dramatically improve for them on Sunday. Possible something else is going on though.

Any chance that's related to this first Clash tournament of the year not requiring players to be ranked in order to play + the start of the season having most players in an elo inferior to their previous season MMR?

Not related to that, had to do with other matchmaking changes a while ago that Clash wasn't 100% configured for.
