Hi @pontiki123451,

Matchmaking designs matches based on medals, trying to make matches between players with similar medal counts. The longer a player is in queue, the more relaxed the matchmaking rules become as it widens the range of medals that is acceptable. If a player has been in queue for a while (e.g. those with limited pools such as Tiberium League), that may mean that there is a large range of medals that the matchmaking system is searching through.

But isn't this a bad system? Players that have a difference of 3 ranks shouldn't be playing with each other right? There is a big difference in the experience of the players so it's not a fair battle even if the levels are the same.

Champs needs to be in the CURRENT league you are in NOT what you were in 3 months ago. This is a huge slap in the face of the player. When you already set them back 3 tiers at the beginning of this month. I have not even made it close to where I was at, so at the beginning of next month your going to set me back 3 more tiers? This is a really big problem, I don't know if EA is seeing the forums but people are really miffed at this.
