Matchmaking In WoC

There are a lot of unbalanced matchmaking going on this year and it’s really putting a damper on the game. I understand that the game will have a larger pool of players to match make with in the coming months but it’s currently wrecked. Very rarely will you be placed in a match with players that are near you in skill level. Meaning the discrepancy between your team and your opponents teams ranking points are MASSSIVE. This forces teammates to often quit the game because they can’t keep up with that play style. The largest gap I’ve seen so far was 13,000 RP. That’s totally unrealistic and unreasonable. I’ve never even had one game where everyone was within the same rank. 

  • Honestly, after waiting ages to play a game, I could care less what the other teams levels are. I rather play the game and lose 8-0 in a match. At least then waiting for 15 minutes to play would be a little worth it. 
    as it is right now I don’t know what the matchmaking algorithm is for chel but it’s most likely way to complicated. I have this sick feeling it’s actually looking for a perfect match instead of just getting us into games.

    Completely agree. You also mathed with much higher division opponents,for example div 10-7 teams are constantly matched against div 1-2 teams where all the opponent does is just cross crease and onetimers and every shot goes in from any angle,while we try to actually play with some skill moves but goalie always ends up saving everything.
