Lvl searches take too long to match

    @Lethal497Firstly, thanks a lot for joining this community and being a part of this expansive network of players helping each other and holding amazing and constructive discussions about the game. Id like to ask you to explore this community as much as you can.

    Now, to your questions answer.
    I very well understand the lack of league matches for long can be detrimental to progress, and you might be in need of that rank, or stamina bottle reward.
    The main issue is as simple as the rank, a lvl takes 24 hours to complete.
    If you're in top 30, it is justified that you have a matchup with a league near your rank, as it would lead to fair opportunities for both leagues. But as you go down the rank ladder(great job!) The lesser choices the lvl algorithm has to offer you. If you're in top 10, and 16 of the top 20 league are in a matchup, and the other 3 haven't started the league matching procedure, you possibly won't have a match up within an hour. As one match up is 24 hours, that's the time in which a league might get free, and it may starts matchmaking process in the next couple of hour, which leads to the aforementioned delay in lvl matches.

    Unfortunately, expertise pertaining to nbalm is currently out due to issues, and I'll have the team revert back to you in the next 2 to 3 days, if you reply back saying you don't find this answer justified and satisfactory.

    Cheers😄

Okay I understand. I didn't realize some of those things.  My suggestion for EA would be to make it so searches don't go past say 10 hours. Expand the parameters of the algorithm to include more possible leagues to be matched with when it hits the 10 hours of searching mark. 

Rank should be based on wins and losses and not on how fast you are matched in a search. The top 10 leagues are basically more about rank based on how fast the league matches than about wins and loses these days.  For example, a 24 hour search is equivalent to a loss in terms of rankings.

    I do get your point. It's the weekends, you might not get an answer but I'll forward it to the team right now and they will look at it soon.
