Futures Stars Youth League - Matchmaking Issues & Booster Problems

The matchmaking system for the Futures Stars Youth League is severely flawed. I’ve lost nearly 10 consecutive matches, and I’m consistently paired with opponents who have a significantly higher win rate and clear skill advantage. Is this matchmaking system intended to differ from the Weekly Tournament’s, or is there a technical error with it currently?

Additionally, there is a prevalent issue with players hiring boosters to play on their accounts in this mode. For legitimate players who compete on their own, this makes the mode unplayable—facing boosters repeatedly is extremely demoralizing and ruins the competitive experience.

I request the team to investigate and address both the matchmaking imbalance and the booster problem as soon as possible to restore a fair gaming environment for all players.

    If raising issues through regular channels yields no results, we should escalate our complaints to EA's senior management. Such critical bugs are harming players and the game itself, and in turn, undermining shareholders' interests.

    When players feel they are matched against opponents of similar skill levels, they are more likely to purchase FC Points to upgrade their squads.

    However, if they are left with absolutely no hope of winning, they will simply abandon the game—this directly reduces the game's revenue potential, and shareholders will certainly not tolerate such a situation.

    In my opinion, streamers don't need to use weird stuff because this year's matchmaking clearly favors the top players!

    In fact, they've never raised the issue because it suits them and they easily win against average players like me.

    If the opposite were true, they would have made themselves heard!

    Many of the players I’m matched with are clearly at a streamer’s skill level. There’s no way a player with my win count should be paired against them—either the matchmaking system is faulty, or these players are using boosters.

  • This year, the online matchmaking is disastrous! It's ruining the experience for many players, who are giving up online play for battles or other modes, and many have abandoned the game months ago...

    We've been reporting these issues for a long time, but they don't seem to want to listen...
