Guild Wars 2

Ok. so i was joining in a tourny match with a friend, expecting a decent match. started out and our team was triple capped inside of 2 minutes easily.

The rest of the game fallowed suit, players getting massacred, and points seemingly taken with out a fight, or much of what you could call a fight.

we ended the game 300 points under the opponents team.

you can imagine my dismay at such a score until it turned to a mix or rage and sadness after looking at the rank of each of the players.

on our team we didn’t have anyone over lvl 15.

the opponents team though.
their lowest was and they had two lvl 41’s.

I can understand some mixing of levels and what have you, but this was insane, beyond unbalanced.

a total group rank of roughly 69 vs roughly 182.

That is just unacceptable!

come on Anet, you have got to do something about that…

What is the point of spvp ranks, if it means NOTHING when it comes to who you play against.

I had a lvl 1 in my team today. Opposing team lowest rank was 38

I have no clue what kind of matchmaking formula is in play here.

MMR? Not sure it exists in this game.

I dont think rank has anything to do with MMR tho, it may seem the 2 rank 41’s you had in your group have low MMR from losing alot to other lower ranked teams, hence they are placed in a pool with all the other people who have low MMR (and most of them will probably be solo-q’ers and casual pvpers).

But still there doesn’t seem to be any consistency in your team and opposition when it comes to tpvp, whether your premade or solo-q. Thus it makes for a somewhat frustrating pvp.

Anet should have never implemented mmr and leaderboard until they have sorted out the basics of tournament mode first. Now the problems people have faced for a LONG time are just as transparent as ever. O well hopefully the more people voice these issues the faster it is solved
