at this point we all agree that this game is EOMM based right? the matchmaking is definitely able to fix wins and losses, the first game of the day is always forced to be a win in order to get you to play more, then it subsequently forces a loss. Despite being all master players, in the 2nd game my team only had sub50% winrate players, some 46%, this has been happening for days now.
You could get the same feel during promo matches, where they'd make you fail in order to get you to keep trying for that rank up, but in masters it's exceedingly obvious. The good players actually know how to take advantage of the mistakes made by the bad enemies and subsequently snowball and turn every match into a complete stomp. While in lower ranks i would expect rayquaza to still be a determining factor, at higher ranks not even rayquaza in its current state is able to swing these games.
Ever since i reached master, every game has been looking like this, completely hopeless by minute 5 either for one side or the other. If they're able to influence the game results this much i wonder if they're giving preferential matchmaking parameters to money spenders. If you guys are stuck on a losestreak i guess my advice would be to buy some gems and see what happens
