I know i’m not the first to have this idea and post about it on the forums, but i really think this is a good idea.
What i suggest is that in ranked matches ( and ranked only ) the matchmaking system will ensure that there will never be more than 1 of the same class on each team.
I believe this would highly increase build diversity as there is a specific NEED for at least 5 DIFFERENT classes instead of rolling with 2 of the same because its just more effective.
This also means you have to choose your role with whatever class you are playing instead of trying to roll with one class that can do everything. Maybe there will be one of those, but since you can only have one of those on your team… yea you get the idea.
Now i realize this could and maybe would increase Que times, but if everyone knows that all teams need 5 different classes, i’m certain we will see many people swapping classes and builds because now their alts might be viable in spvp since you cant just stack up on the stronger classes ( lets be real, balance is not perfect )
and this is exactly why we need this – to make even the classes that are not as strong in spvp as others viable and needed simply because you cant stack up on the other ones.
also, i’d gladly wait an extra minute or two ( in fact id wait like 10 min np lol ) for a more interesting and balanced match than one ( like in the last bunkermeta ) where whoever stacks 2 mesmers and revs win the game if both teams are of equal skill, and im sure im not the only one who feels this way. after all, we’re talking about ranked. the people who want fast matches just to play some pvp and have fun can obviously go unranked at any time just to play the game, but in ranked where people are playing competitively, i’m sure they would be willing to wait just a little longer.
i hope the devs will see this and tbh i think they might already have thought about it but lets discuss and see if it really would be a good idea.
obviously i cant see this from all the possible points of views so yea please give feedback etc.
