So im only posting this to hopefully get the community to thumb this enough the devs will listen. (doubtful even then, but worth the try)
ok so maybe im the weird one here. but it feels to me like the game que/sorting mechanism is severely broken in battlegrounds. the longer a season goes on, the worse the pool gets as time moves on. I refuse to believe that with the mechanics of a digital card game that some kind of optimal ranking/player experience sorting system does not exist.
so there is zero reason why people with 2 games completed of a certain mode should be paired with people who have 200+ games completed of a certain mode.
on the flipside. if an experienced player goes afk in a game, there is no reason that you can not detect that no cards moved in a certain round, or that too few movements per (time) happened in too many rounds in a game. and if you trigger this, your ranking should tank by 4x. this would create boundaries between competitive and casual players. it should already be in place.
right now. im sitting at 3k-5k rank. its duos. there should be no reason a player with literally dozens of completed games experience be paired with someone having their first go at it.
this doesnt happen every blue moon either, it happens every 3rd-4th game. after a couple of times your like ok, let me try to help the new guy. after that, when your in a loosing streak and it happens. Thats annoying.
make it worse with the trolls out there who honestly only intend on starting a game then go afk, 2-3 rounds, play a round, then go afk probably the rest of the game. I can think of no less then 10 different ways to insure that people who repeatedly troll in game would never make it out of the pool. into a game.
and while Im complaining. the mobile version, FANTASTIC idea. the app is horrid. no reason at all to have as many zoom related bugs with the ui that exists.
I hope the active readers in this forum agree with most of this post and bump it. ALOT.
