Guild Wars 2

In a perfect world we’d have well balanced matches against well structured teams class wise. I understand that’s nigh on impossible to achieve. This isn’t about all that though.

I was queueing up for solo queue the other night and I’d been in the queue for over 9 minutes. Having had comparatively shorter queue times but given that it was late I had left it that long. At that time I decided to leave the queue, and rejoin.

I got an instant queue pop. Which I just thought was really odd. Just wondering if anyone has any idea why that might have happened?

Watched the Chaithh steam 5min ago and he is no. 4 NA soloQ and was matched with a rank 1 and rank 10 player in one team. So I guess they have serious problems with the queue.

I don’t want it to be structured class wise.
100b war and hambow war are completely different things. Same goes for power/condi/mm necro or spirit/power ranger.

That’s not a serious problem. It works as intended. Higher you are, worst teammates you are supposed to get. You should have some disadvantage.

Well thank god that it actually doesn’t work like that.

Having a top 10 Solo Q MMR should mean that I should be playing with and against veteran or above average players. It does not mean that the top 10 MMR player is intended to be captain of the noob ship, while the other team gets all average players.

What you mean to say is that amongst the 5 people on each side, who are all at as closest MMR bracket as possible, each team has the same number of players on the ‘high end’ of the bracket as there are on the ‘low end’ of the bracket.

What occasionally happens: The range in the ‘bracket’ of MMRs on a single team range from #4 NA, to #unranked, first day PvPing. This is a problem, not intended design.
