How can u call this matchmaking valve?

[ValveFixUrGame]

Valve does your whole dev team consist of icefrog? You've done nothing with the game except this terrible non-matchmaking system and hats.
I have 1000+ games of experience yet I play snipers who buy Vlads, What are you doing?
Takes 5 min to get random people together as well, why does it take that long when you obviously aren't pairing up people on my level.
I know this is another Matchmaking thread but Valve is just not doing anything about it so I need to say something. Valve fix ur game before its too late.

Also LoLs matchmaking system matches you up against ppl ur lvl as well as taking 30 sec, how riot beats you in this area I have no idea but they are.

Maybe even after 1000 games, you're still really shit.

[Indefatigable]

Because the only defense Valve-knights have against the terrible matchmaking complaints is "YOU'RE SO BAD HURR DURR"

[Dortayo]

Sniper bought vlads.. MM faults or someone doesnt care? What should valve do? Make it impossible to buy vlads for snipers in certain brackets?

pretty much this.. i find it really weird if ur still playing games where a sniper buys vlad.
it could also be a stack with a player bringing a lower leveled player in a higher game.

I can provide you with replays to prove to you that I'm not "shit" if that helps you.

A sniper with Vlad isn't necessairily a terrible decision. Can you give us the match ID?

He's playing in a team with 4 melee heroes, none of which took Vlad.

1x Vladimir's Offering
2050 gold = 4x+16% lifesteal, 5x+15% dmg, 5x+5 Armour, 5x+0.8 Mana Regen

Is that really too expensive?

Sure, someone else could've built it instead, but they didn't.

If he had built a second Vlad, then I would agree with you, but when you add it all up, I'm not sure there are many better items, in that situation.

It's going to work better than 5 Dominators, which cost about the same as one Vald each, since +15% dmg is better than +20 dmg in the majority of cases.

5x Helm of the Dominator
9250 gold = 5x+15% lifesteal, 5x+20 dmg, 5x+5 Armour

What would you spend the 2050 gold on instead?

This looks very much like yet another case of misunderstanding a build decision, leading to a belief that the matchmaking is broken.

[Dakarai]

A Vlads isn't necessarily a bad option - I've seen pro teams build it on a ranged support on a team with only one melee hero just to get the 15% damage aura and armor aura.

In this game especially, four melee heroes on Sniper's team, none of which have a Vlads as well? It's still a decent item if only for the damage aura.
