match my room size
Is this feature ever coming back for WoC or are we still doomed to wait 1:45m for a game? I understand it helps find a game quicker but we don’t need the option to allow a drop-in skater or goalie in...

If the issue is that adding "Match Club Size" is alienating some teams from the matchmaking pool, why not force teams with fewer than five humans to fill their roster by greying out the option to disable "Look for teammates" until they have a full lineup? World of Chel is constantly ruined by AI players. It's a mode that's at its best when every player is human-controlled.
Before EA could even consider this they'd need to make at least two changes. Drop-ins should not be able to pull the goalie and clubs would need a way to kick drop-in players from the game. It's far too easy for a single player to ruin the game for everybody to force drop-ins on everyone. Frankly, these changes should be made anyway. I think it would encourage more teams to user the "look for teammates" option.
I'd love to see some actual metrics from EA in regards to how long it takes to find a game now as compared to when matching club size was an option. I suspect there hasn't been a significant reduction in search times. And to be clear I mean time to find a game, not time to be matched up with another team. Being matched up against another club and that not resulting in a game because one side or the other backs out ( for whatever reason ) isn't getting players into a game any quicker.
