can’t really blame Anet. when they vary the opponents, people complain about the large disparities in matchups that result in lots of blowouts. when they pair up the closest ranking servers, people complain about it getting boring fighting the same people.
This.
Sometimes I wonder if they should make every EVEN week “no random glicko” and every ODD week “large random glicko” (Current is “approx” +/-100, how about change it to 150).
That would give us a bit of both. And give ANet a bunch of headaches I can imagine.
Lol at people upset over fighting the same server 3 weeks in a row.
People in T1-NA have been fighting the same 3 servers for the last 7 months.

They’re also the only ones not complaining…

They also cooperated to keep the same 3 servers there for awhile (think that ended).
unfortunately, it looks like FA will not make it into T1, unless something drastic changes in T2. The servers there have reached a glicko equilibrium, where FA is simply not capable of beating YB and SoS enough to gain appreciable amounts of glicko off it.
And so they are stuck, FA straining at the end of a tether, T1 just out of reach, with YB and SoS at the other end.

Actually, as long as they are close enough to roll a random week into T1 they still got a chance for that. If they actually match up against 2 T1 servers a single week, they will gain lots of glicko unless they are completely destroyed. Which will increase their chances further for later weeks.
T1 NA … nuf said.
Weeks and weeks of the same three servers makes for teaming across servers and a lot of spying and trolling.
In all honesty, the spying and trolling are completely irrelevant. That has more to do with trolls with a few throw away dollars to waste on the sale.
10 weeks ANET and we finally made it. Now we have same points than Arborstone.
I really hope that you wont scrrew us up again and we wont fight week 11
I just saw that FA actually is within roll range of T1, with a roll possibility of 0.2% or something like that. It will be a month or two more before they have a realistic chance of rolling T1. Still…somebody has to win the lottery some time.
Neither TC or FA is moving much. It would take a miracle roll, manual intervention, divine intervention, or seasons for that gap to close any time soon…..
Update:
RoS finally has a different MU. After 10 stale weeks we face Arborstone instead of RoF.
Thx RNGeebus.
Still the System itself is performing underwhelming, since EU T7 was not the only tier affected by this, and most still are.

Danged if they do, danged if they don’t. When they relax the restrictions on the system, players cry that they get in uneven or unfair matchups. If they tighten the system, players cry that matchups are stale.
Personally, I just assume see the 3rd place server in every tier drop a tier for the following week, while the 1st place server in the tier move up for the following week. In that case, the forums would be spammed with threads of unfair matchups, but at least it would be consistent.
