Any ideas, why dudes with 6.5 million GP and 2-3 GLs sitting in Carbonite 2-1? It's just not fair at all, because Carbonite is a very low rank, mostly for new players, who cannot compete with so strong accounts.

If they keep losing, they keep falling - that's really all there is to the "match making". They may be losing on purpose due to wanting to fall for easy matches or just not caring about the game mode. Sometimes I fall during 3v3 because I just don't want to play 3v3, but I still sign up and do my one battle to qualify for rewards.

There is should be GP threshold that will keep them on Bronzium 5 without moving to Carbonite. This will heal this mode for low GP accounts.

No gp should not be used in any higher leagues.

You can't take this game mode seriously. It is just something to laugh about. There is no matchmaking, there is no skill. Just uneven matches, with datacrons that damaged this game to an irraperable state.

Just means that people will be stuck in Carbonite because of the "bad" match making when some one climbs to B5.

They could add a GP component to matchmaking in Carbonite that tried to match skill rating and GP to help avoid some of this. No gp should not be used in any higher leagues.

No, Carb 1 moving you to Bro 4. Bro 5 will be with same skillrating as carbonite ligue has but will be locked from low GP account.

Isn't the progression
1 to 5 and 5 to 1 when moving leagues?

When you reach div 1 -> you will be moved to div 4-3 next league. When you will be in div 5 -> you will be moved to div 2-3 previous league.

This will lead us to state when div 5 will be graveyard for those who didn’t play matches and locked them from those who play actively.

Can’t you move even higher than div 3 when being promoted if your SR is high enough? Eg you end a season in B1 with a skill rating of 2565 you should go straight to C2, or is it not possible to grow your SR that much in a season?
