TL:DR , Matchmaking stops me fighting in the top tier
So
Dear good players :good game , I will miss you
Dear pubstompers: Your tears are tasty, in case you could not tell I am using "dear" in an incredibly sarcastic fashion.
Dear people that say complaints about pubstomping are unfounded: Please don't be really stupid it does frustrate people that actually bother to think about what is going on.
I am in the lower tier when it comes to match making so I will not be fighting the impressive players that counter my
attempts to help my team in an awesome way. Part of me does not like being outclassed but my better side likes watching a good show.
An analogy would be the Stuntmen for the movie "Game of Death" that asked Bruce Lee for a show and he gave them both an impressive lightning kick to the balls that they grew to appreciate after time had passed.
However CCP has made the right choice using Tiers even though I will see less amazing play, there is a good side to Tiers. I see less amazing play but also see less pathetic things like a group pubstompers shooting newbs on a spawn point. There are SOME cases where it is clear that pubstompers are ruining the game for everyone else so they can lie to themselves about being better than others. It is also very clear they are lying when they say "I am just being competitive" when they get mocked for their depraved behavior.

Are you in the upper or lower tier?
If the latter, you'll be promoted over time, I'd expect.
If you're consistently in the bottom half of the former, I'd suspect a similar if opposite demotion.
I am in the lower tier so I only play against lower tier players, I do not see lower tier players,
I simply do not have the fine motor control to get promoted to the top tier so I will never see the higher tier players again.

Some clarification
What happens now is CCP has a formula for working out if you are a lower tier or an upper tier player and matches you
accordingly
I am in the lower tier so I only play against lower tier players, I do not see really good players in games anymore.
If you are a bad player and look for a game now you find you will not get outclassed as much as you were before.
So new players with fine motor control and reasonable situational awareness will start in the lower tier and eventually move to the top tier after learning the game. I simply do not have the fine motor control or the situational awareness to get promoted to the top tier so I will never see the higher tier players again.

I think you are overthinking the simple, People don't like assholes so they complain about them, my position is not as contradictory as you think |

I understood Mu was used to separate queues into groups then the same Mu was used to balance teams within the groups. If that is correct there is no upper and lower tier overall it's decided at the point of queueing relative to who else is queueing.
I could be wrong on that though as I can't find the post.
I think that is what is going on, Scotty splits everyone in the queue into a lower group and a high group and
then it makes a match for the lower group and it makes a separate match for the high group, So if you are in the top 50% of the people in the queue you will be in a battle with the other people in the top 50% of the queue. |
