If I understood correctly MMR will be reset for season 2. So It would be a good time to look at MM again.

It will or it won't...
@Wallachia told me everything would be reset, but then Hi-Rez posted an update saying it was going to be a "soft reset" where MMR will be slightly lowered, but not reset... So I'm not sure which it actually is. I'm also not sure if we'll be keeping our ranked borders or if we'll have to qualify again...
I'm also confused now. In my opinion a reset of the frame with no MMR real reset won't solve anything in most cases.
With a full reset, and a rework, start of season will be an extra sucky but mid to long term will make more sense.
Lucky you. Im still gold, but even pre ob64, ive always been matched mostly against plats, diamonds, a few cases masters, and of grandmasters (only karisray koorland and in casual though) even when im in solo queue. after ob64 though, things just got a lot worse because, at least preob64, teams were more or less balanced, just one or two players out of place. now however. its just shit

I think we're grossly misdiagnosing the problem. If the playerbase is just too low for the MM to work correctly, we should be seeing somewhat longer queue times than before. Queue times are still very short, but MM is somehow even worse than it was before.
"Calibrate" is not really a word that has relevance to a matchmaking system, to my knowledge. Can you explain what you mean better? What exactly does "calibrate" mean, here? Do you mean the MM needs to be adjusted somehow after each patch? If so, why?
IMO, this sentence from the original post explains all of the problems we're experiencing. Winrate is not really a usable parameter for a matchmaker. If you take all the people with 70% WR and start putting them into matches together, obviously their WR will not stay at 70%. Everyone's WR will gradually drop down close to 50%. Likewise, if all the 30% WR players go to the same matches, their WR will rise to nearly 50%, no matter how bad they are.
Thanks for making the thread and trying to help us figure out what hi-rez's definition of a "matchmaker" is. My best guess is that there isn't really much of a matchmaker at all. It sounds like the system is just grabbing 10 players and then sorting them into teams that have similar average win rates. That's...not a real matchmaker.
Uhh... Whaaaaaaaat?
By the way, these weren't players that don't play ranked. These were just new players. And I wasn't party'd up with any new players either, only person I was with was Caliban here.

Just a silly idea
Support Pip guide here!
Fix the Pip bugs! There are 40 of them, so can we fix them please?
When will the fucking matchmaking update be released?
I am...
....sick of being teamed with total beginners after 500 hours of experience.
....sick of playing against premade teams as a solo player
....sick of having to carry totally lost players who don't even know how to press Q
My patience is gone soon. Too many useless updates around the worst matchmaking system of all time.

So what the hell is wrong with the match making system... just played a match with all gold against all low level qualifying players. we steam rolled them, but how is this fun for them or me? Please change the requirement to join comp play to have higher player level, and at least 3 champions in each role level 5 or better. It makes no sense that we should be playing together.
