What’s the criteria behind having the team named after your character?

I thought at one point, a dev posted that its the player with highest MMR, but what I’m seeing I hope that is not the case.

I just got into Ruby and have played about 15-20 matches since. And I’d say since hitting Ruby, 70-80% of the time its been Team Echo Oread (my character). Before that, I’d say it was a 1 in 10 chance that the team got named after my character. And it usually ended up badly when it did.

That can’t be because of MMR ranking? I just got to Ruby.

It’s just whoever loads into the map first for your team.

Doubt that. I play on a laptop and last night I was definitely the last to enter the map. And it was still Team Echo Oread.

I’m assuming then that this is based on latency and not visible game-loading itself.
