It doesnt help when matchmaking sucks too. Near the start/mid of the season I was rolling through heroic 2 I think, and we were getting slapped around. I checked the stats on the players against us and one was a mythic 3 and almost legend. How the hell are we supposed to have a chance at a win when you're against somebody that's literally on the opposite side of the skill spectrum?

I feel the pain. My first time to Legend got halted at 5.2k. Got up there fairly smoothly, lots of even games but not too many setbacks. Then I got slapped by 10-something landslide losses in a row due to bad matchmaking and went straight back down to 4.2.. took a while to crawl back up. What bugs me about it was that I still did reasonably well those games. Unfortunately, either my random teammates bled the lives away so I only had one life per round or the match were the three higher-tiered players vs the three not-quite-as-high-tier players.
