Re: Arena Servers are (Respectfully) Hot Trash

@nebwise Is hot trash better or worse than cold trash? Because I would vote for whatever is worse.

Nice bullet points and bolded headings, btw.

The 3-stacks vs randos is especailly problematic, not to mention what the heck are low bronze players doing in matches against high gold players? When it's 3-stacked, it's even worse.

@LaughingSharko Yeah. The skill margins in Arenas are super-narrow, with wins usually hinging on a team's weakest player. Even gold vs. silver is usually no-contest.

What really chaps my * is that devs have said several times they wouldn't match 3-stacks with randos, and they didn't deliver.

@nebwise Yeah, they didn't do that. I had two randoms and was pitted against a team, who's club name showed above their characters at the top, and the "Enemy Team" popup at the start, was their club name.

That's clearly a pre-made squad.
