Div Rivals Promotion Games Matchmaking Makes No Sense

I'm currently hardstuck in Div 6 and cant win my promotion game. every time i get knocked back into the stage or wtv behind the promotion game I always sweep the person every time which in my understanding should mean the promotion game shouldn't be miles harder but in my experience on Series X each time i play my promotion match i always play some guy with a 1 million coin or more team that plays like a div 2 or higher and i dare say closer to elite skill based off what ive seen by streamers. Idk if i just suck or the matchmaking is messed up and puts you against higher divs than its supposed to. I just think that its highly unlikely the 8 to 10 times now ive had to play the promotion game every single time the person is a crazy sweat with a full meta team. it makes no sense. no way the crazy sweats in div 6 every time just happen to queue against me and are also on their promotion game.

    Exactly the same problem here. Dude is the matchmaking. The matchmaking is **bleep**ed this year they don’t know what they’re doing. The relegation is baseless but the match making is worse. In previous fc my average rank is Div 4 now I can’t even make it to Div 6 to play Futchamps. Anytime I’m just one match away from reaching Div 6 guess what happens? The same person who has been playing now lose all my matches and get relegated to Div 8 and even in Div 8 I still lose and experience the same issue you are talking about. Elite Div players playing like Krugers.

    In FC 25 I was able to reach to Div 3 in the First 2 or 3 weeks of the game but now it seems matchmaking is a lot harder. Having to manual defend this year isn't a issue for me since I've always went away from abusing the park the bus ai meta that made fc 25 unenjoyable but for me it seems having meta players seems even more broken than last year. Numerous occasion someone just runs down the line cause they have a rapid plus player and my fullbacks just cant catch up it seems no matter what i do. I've had issues with right stick switching responsiveness as well with cbs. even after the last patch center backs will glide wide to cover a player your already manual trying to defend. We will see with the path EA is taking this FC I have confidence they will actual fix and address things this year.
