Rivals Matchmaking

I just want to add what every casual player is thinking I am sorry to say it but as a company you rely more on casuals than professionals. 

However casuals still want to progress to their best ability and test themselves to a fair extent. Why is it you are favouring higher ranked players in div 2 / 1 and matching them with players in div 4? That is making better players feel superior and worse players get to the point of not wanting to play for being out of their grasp. You are taking the fun away from  the game.

Why is it there is skill points in elite but not in lower divisions? You have made lower divisions a free for all and prioritising higher ranks. When you climb the ranks you should be further testing yourself not just smoke and mirrors approach of beating someone way down the skill gap to stroke your ego.

I don't get how there is dedicated skill points for those in elite but everyone else is just left to play together not knowing who they will play. What I am getting at is you should be prioritising players in same divisions not those that are closest. I would rather wait 3 minutes to match with someone in my division than nstantly match someone in division 1 who will beat me in 30 secs. From what I know those going for elite want to be tested not have someone quit before the game is in it's 15th minute.

To conclude please can you start matching us with someone in our division rather than match us with locals. You have widgets for crossplay, why not have a widget that states "match with same rank players"? 

Also maybe allow us to get relegated and not have us stuck on a checkpoint, I have been stuck on the same checkpoint for 2 weeks.

  • You wouldn’t want relegation as you would have to play rovers from d1 and d2 that would drop down to play you. 

    There probably isn’t many in the higher divisions like d10-d5 for you to play. The more active player base will be lower. You will probably get some from a higher division but not as many. 

  • The game, especially on PC, is pretty dead right now. There's just not enough active casual players. Most of the casuals in the gaming communities I am in just play Rush & Squad Battles because of the delay & sweatiness of rivals/champs/cups etc
