Mhms..
It gets like that. It's unfortunate when you're matched up against the same bronze n silvers over n over again too. No point throwing cause it's not fun for either team - but stomping isn't fun either. Cool of you to team up with them!!
In saying that though, the opposite still happens to me to. There are some players I know by user name that I get this feeling of dread when I see them cause I know it's gonna be a one sided patootie beating and there's nothing me or my team can do to stop it xD
Game needs a higher pop before it can balance out, but I don't think that'll ever happen given the game's age and history unfortunately
