It will likely be a exercise in frustration cause much like solo shuffle there is nothing stopping people from just making a b line for the lowest geared player over and over
We’re back to 1 honor and 1 conquest set in DF and a minimum item level required to queue for Ranked shuffle.

My bad the worst player not the most undergeared
I think that it’s neat how each set of six games kind of has its own little contained thing as to what’s going on. Sure, sometimes you can’t protect the little guy and he goes 0-6, but usually people can kind of adjust around each other to a degree.

Cause it takes all brain usage out of the game mode when all your doing is rushing 1 player down and there really isn’t much his 2 team mates can do to stop it who are just basically sitting there losing rating through no fault of their own
If one player is going 0-6 then their MMR will dump and they’ll be closer to where they should be (at an MMR where they win roughly half their games). That’s the whole idea.
All one can do is play the best they can relative to the hand they’re dealt. If there’s somebody that’s doomed to die every round then so but it but that’s not every shuffle.

At some point the clueless players will be filtered out and you’ll be left with 6 competent evenly geared players every time.

I really don’t think so cause in bgs you have a steady flow of alts in there just tanking the group for honor or conquest. Even at the end of the expac
Provided they play a bit they’ll drop MMR.
If they don’t then they’re also gone, just in another sense.
Higher MMRs will just be those capable of consistently offering a positive influence.
There is rating in shuffle though so at a certain cr you will stop seeing people who are straight potatoes. Low ratings will always have that kind of stuff but that’s what it’s there for: To learn with other badly geared players.
IF you are worse than everyone else in the lobby. Worse at kitting, peeling for yourself, trading cd’s etc. You deserve to lose no?
The individual player maybe but what about the other 2 players who could be amazing who are just getting tanked
I’m sure they’ll make a thread explaining their unfortunate situation.

I do think that if one player goes 0-6 there should be some sort of mmr protection for the other players, but even in those situations it’s still super niche for it to happen.
Overall though, if you can’t carry the worse player you shouldn’t get points. The worst case situation you can have from someone going 0-6 is a 3-3 match and that won’t be a problem unless your playing way below your personal mmr. Which shouldn’t happen too often.

Then they’ll 3/3 and tread water while the bad player goes 0/6 and they never see him again (theoretically). Next game they make progress again.

This dude is clueless if he doesnt think normal ladder 3v3 isnt pressuring the weak link in a series anyways lol
(Usually the warrior)
Except in 3v3 you can strengthen the weak link by deciding who you are with in solo shuffle you have no say and no coordination. And by just playing more games together
You cant press someomes buttons for them. Idk you seem like you have an idea of a thought but just aint there yet
