The showdown matchmaking is broken and is indeed ridiculous. Twice I was matched with a 100-104 ovr and lost by about 10+ points. VERY CRAZY. To think that lower overalls have a high chance of being matched with a higher overall is so ridiculous and DOES NOT MAKE SENSE. Many times I uninstalled the game because of it, and sometimes it makes the game unexciting anymore. Seriously, what's the point of this??!!!!
another one....ea you're making things unfair. arghhhh you better fix this now

Can you give us some context to your images?
Community ManagerA higher overall player doesn't always translate to a more skilled player on the courts. There are a variety of factors that go into matchmaking and the system will do it's best to match you with someone of equal overall/skill, do you think this happens way too often?
Ea please fix this pleasee. I thought the matchmaking was supposed to be evenly matched.
Unfortunately the only solution is to quit playing Showdown. Let the 108+ OVR play among themselves. Showdown matchmaking is dead
