I have been playing Age of Mythology: Retold. Almost got to 1300 elo, but the matchmaking can be quite poor and annoying at times. For example the game gives you 900, 900, 1200, 1200 and the enemy team is 1200, 1200, 1200, 1200. Well as the 1200 guy you still lose a normal amount of elo despite having two 900 elo teammates losing the game for you. Another example, you are 1200 and have a teammate who is 1200 and your opponents are 2 1600 players. Well they are 1600 in 1v1 but 1300 in team games. So while we clearly get outclassed, we still lose a normal amount of elo.

Played more League of Legends. Got back to Gold League. The meta sucks, but we still brute force our way through despite playing objectively bad champions. We might be able to push to Platinum League with enough games.

Played more Hearts of Iron IV. Recently I feel the Allies have gotten much stronger, so I never want to play as Allies unless I want to chill. So in doing so, I have to pick a neutral nation to boost the Axis or the Comintern. I kept failing no matter which nation I chose, because they are only minor nations left outside of the 3 big factions. But still I eventually went with Spain, which has to deal with the annoying civil war first. But clearing that up in a year, means you can get to major level power, especially if you absorb Portugal. After that building navy to deal with the Allies and then joining the war and carrying the faction through Russia can lead to victory.
