Hell yeah it’s an issue with the game. Because you guys chose to change HUT from p2p to server based and now you have this mess on your hands. I’d argue most of your gameplay complaints are because of connectivity mismatches.
Look at sleeves last video about fixing rivals. He even discusses connectivity in latter part of video.
Either stand up more servers or fix matchmaking, or better yet, both! You owe it to your fan base.
Shouldnt be matching Quebec and down east from Saskatchewan as often as I do. Max ping setting does nothing for me.
Sure that could be fixed, unless it’s of course, it’s intended
Rarely do I match people in my area. Rarely.
By the way champs is atrocious past two days. Worse than normal Can’t buy a win when usually go at least 10-10 (even with these ridiculous mismatched connection games). Every game is so obvious something is up; more than skill gap.
Don’t think it’s too much to ask for an even playing field. And I know I’m not the only one experiencing.
Do better and you’ll grow your game.

Community ManagerYes. I've seen the video. As you pointed out, this is due to the proximity to the server. Someone closer is going to have a better connection. Hopefully, we can add more servers to help with this. However, I don't see servers being added to areas with very low populations.
If you rarely match people in your area, that's because you're in a region where there is a small pool of players. Matchmaking expands to include others outside your region if the search is taking too long. If a search takes more than 15 seconds, cancel it and start again. It'll take you longer to match up, but you should have a better connection.
