How to not get mismatched

So, with the last update we already got hit by EA with the cutting in half of ad gems, so I figured I would give you guys a tip on not getting slapped by the matchmaking system too.

*story*

As some of you probably have noticed, you can get huuuuge mismatches sometimes, especially in diamond league. I myself am level 39 now, and the only reason I got through diamond league as a f2p was because I could prevent those mismatches (and building good decks too ofc). When you get matched up against legendary league (and most of the time taco league too) players, you always get smacked in your face with all the super-rares and legendaries they use because 95% of them are p2w (professor brainstorm p2w for example). I myself use decks that can counter a few legendaries, but if someone drops 3 cornucopias against my long game deck, I will get pummeled. I mean, I don't lose everything, but i lose like 65% of games against legendary players. Anyways, let's get to the point on how to prevent having to fight these p2w players.

(This is a theory, I am not sure if it actually works this way, but I have only gotten 1 mismatch in the last 25 games, so I guess it works):

*theory*

When you look for a match, the game will look for similar opponents first. If the game can't find similar opponents within 3 seconds, it will match you up against a player in legendary or taco league (if you're in diamond league).

To prevent this from happening, click on find a match, wait 3 seconds, and then cancel out. Repeat this until you find a match within 3 seconds, and you won't have mismatches 🙂

Good luck all

    mismatching happen because there is not enough players in the pool. recently, most players play as plants. therefore when you play as plants, you will get match longer. and if the server not find any similar rank as yours, it will widen its search to above/below your rank, until it find a player

    Which is most likely why after hitting diamond this season, I'm playing Taco League players and so on. Yeah, this one guys threw out four tricksters and 2 garg feasts. I could barely survive the tricksters, but the garg feast meant instant lost for me..... LOL
