LVL matching question

Hey EA,

Is there a way to make LvL more competitive?  Maybe change the universal spin algorithm to only match teams within +/- X number of total POWER and/or at least rank 1-100, 101-200, 201-300, 301-400, and etc? As a top 50 LvL team playing a 200 and higher team without competitive power for multiple weeks in a row isn’t fun for either team. Obviously every team matching with someone everyday is the most important, but competitive matching is 2nd most important.  If this preposal results in the same evenly matched teams playing each other every other day, who is to say that is a bad thing, until it is attempted?  I mean trial and error, right?

  • If complaints started coming in that stated LVL is too competitive, would that be worse than complaints about LvL not being competitive enough?

    Imagine a 200 rank team that maybe got a late start or took a awhile to compile a core team working their way through the 101-200 bracket and having a chance to crack into the top 100, even if it requires them beating the same teams with the same number of members +/- X number of members over and over again!

    That could make LC more competitive (because you would have higher chance of being auto dropped in LvL match ups by finishing last), which could promote motivation to spend more time playing the game and increase skills/team so you don’t get auto dropped In LvL match ups.

    I assume the name of the game is to have users spend time on the app and I assume that there is a profit correlation that’s says x amount of time per person spent playing the game equals x amount money spent by each person.  When a top 50 team continuously plays 200 and above ranked teams neither team has motivation to spend time playing LvL.  Top 50 throws a couple of passes for TD’s and logs out, 200 and above logs in and sees top 50 matchup and logs out.  Minimal amount of time spent by both teams in app because no amount of time spent on app could ever change any part of the outcome.

    We get close to breaking the 1,000 barrier then we get the next 4-5 league matchups that are totally not equitable for us!!!

    As the Commish, I’d love to have your problems!!!
