Can we not get a system that matches players more evenly? Putting me an Oynx player with a platinum player and my opposing players being 2 diamonds is not evenly matching players. I’m so sick of the system expecting me to carry the load in a match when I’m placed with a player several levels below me. It also in Team Doubles shouldn’t be hard to match teams of 2 vs other teams of 2. And players searching alone against other players searching alone.
What’s your search option?
It seems like the game is doing a good job of fair matches otherwise, if not putting them outright in your favor.
Recent histrionics notwithstanding, of course.
I’m searching Focused. But for the most part I’m not matching evenly skilled players. And if it throws games in my favor that’s just as bad. I don’t want it to be in my favor, I want it to be even.i should be facing and matching players on my team that are between Oynx and High Diamond. Not Platinums, Golds and Silvers.
Here is a perfect example, this is my most recent game.

It’d be nice if a 343 employee could shed some light on matches such as the ones I linked.
Yea, I’ve been poorly matched recently in Doubles…I’d say the last 5 games I’ve only played one challenging group…the rest…25-9, 25-13, etc.
The guy I run with was talking about it yesterday as well.
Low pop
I realize that games can get pretty lop-sided in Doubles… but maybe it is just because with less players, mistakes can snowball pretty quickly into a lop-sided game? Not that I don’t think the match-making is shaky but with it only being 2 v 2, a couple mistakes and all of a sudden you are trying to play catch -up while the other team is sitting back and getting kills because you have no other choice but trying to rush them.
Yesterday we had an opponent go like 0-14 or something crazy. Couldn’t even get a kill. He was probably pretty bad but there was not much he could do when we were sitting back with Sniper, needler, and supressor (yeah just getting all the easy kills) on Molten.
I’m not talking about the score I’m talking about how players are matched pre game.
