So I was excited to log in today because I had great expectations about this week matchup. And what do my eyes see? Same matchup – for the fourth week in a row ! (RoF – Arborstone – Drakkar Lake) Why is this? I’ve been playing against those world so much that when I see someone roaming I already know who he is. Everything is either horribly sieged or you’ll just see an enormous blob which in no way you can stop. Lots of my friends don’t even bother getting in WvW just like many other players. It is pointless. Please, do something about it or Guild Wars will lose valuable players.

Because it was the by far most likely match with 84% chance.

Matchmaking is, for each server:
Take the rating R e.g. from http://mos.millenium.org/eu/matchups (or https://leaderboards.guildwars2.com/en/eu/wvw). The rating represents your servers ability to make score, i.e. it’s manpower coverage in the 24/7 matches, which is roughly how many people on your server play at off-time, especially at night.
Take the Deviation from https://leaderboards.guildwars2.com/en/eu/wvw
Roll a random number RN between -1 and +1
Match rating MR = R + (10 + 0.45*D)*RN
Order all servers according to their MR.
MR rank 1-3 play T1 (highest green, middle blue, lowest red)

MR rank 16-18 play T6 (thats you)

With a deviation of around 140, the max rating gap between two servers, that can be bridged by the random modification is 146 (-1 roll resulting in a -73 modification for the higher, and +1 roll with +73 modification for the lower).

The high probability that you are matched together results from the combination of 3 things:

  • You fit the match-aligment (1-3, 4-6, 7-9, …, 16-18, … 25-27).
  • The rating gap between Baruch and Arbor is 140 it is rather unlikely that one of you roll into T5
  • The rating gap between RoF and Miller is 80, an exchange may happen, but is not very likely.
Ceterum censeo SFR esse delendam!

no clue why we get big severs like Kain and yet we lost everything. AR has seen its day’s time to find a new sever. I’m starting to get sick of this Trash of a system they need to add the que timer for small severs. are batter yet if a big sever get all the keep/tower/camps move up a rank aka there never facing us again and let us some small severs have some fun.
