Some games will be ruined by people playing badly (be they newbies or not). Some of these games you will win, because they were on the other team. Some of these games you will lose, because they were on your team.

I believe this state of affairs is unavoidable (with the possible exception of 1v1).

None of these observations is particularly useful in the moment that you are playing a ruined game, but not all games are ruined.

A partial solution to this problem is indeed to fix the issues which would make a Steam release fail, and then make with the release. I promise you will still get some bad games though no matter what happens.

In
the
end,
when
faced
with
a
single
bad
game,
you
just
have
to
suck
it
up
and
hope
the
next
one
will
be
better
(
or
perhaps
take
a
break
for
a
little
while
if
@Firepluk
is
having
one
of
his
moods)

(As a related note which perhaps belongs more in the other balance thread, the difference between a 1900 and 1500 player is *not the same* as the difference between a 1500 and a 1100, or for that matter between a 1900 and a 2300. By comparison, the 1900-1500 difference is more compareable to a 1800-1400 difference, or 1900-1800 to 1800-1700. The fact that the elo-average-team-balance system as it stands treats the first two gaps in the same way is, I believe, a critical flaw.)
