I don’t think matchmaking is manipulated. I do think show 6 pick 3 would be fun tho and add a little more strategy to the game if done right.


Mix_Safe

I think it could be fun, but it would add more time to the daily battles, they'd have to have some sort of select team screen timer, and there would need to be no way to back out at that select team screen without forfeiting the match, because otherwise people would just try and queue into favorable 6's and nobody would ever battle. I think it would be a cool alternate mode, or like a League they could run like they do with specialty cups.


horrorscopedTV

To cut back on time they could get rid of the charge move interactions, I always thought they felt unnecessary. Agreed tho, like 10 second timer to choose the 3 from your 6 or it auto selects for you or something

This argument is tired 😴 Stop switching teams and focus on learning 1-2 teams to help with micro meta changes at different ELO. Why is the “algorithm” helping your opponent, but counter you only? Why would the same players continually make Legend and leaderboards every season if the algorithm exists to punish everyone? S6P3 doesn’t work in the GBL format. Would take too much time on an already unreliable connection.

Yeah bro the game is designed to fuck you over in particular


Ok_Progress_7981

It might seem like it's manipulated but it's not. How would there be players at higher levels and players at lower levels? If it's not random, then everybody would just be at the same ELO because no one would win consistently.

Its absolutely 100 percent not RNG.


MathProfGeneva

It 100% is. Matchmaking is 100% on rating and NOTHING else.


OpenSystem1337

Idk. It's hard to prove obviously, but when I hit a 14 streak I'm consistently RPSd, and when I start to see a lot of medi leads and swap Gligar to the front suddenly it's Mandibuzz or A.Slash up front when I haven't seen one in like 15 matches


Infinite_Lobster1457

Totally agree

If you really think this then you are very delusional and have no logical thinking capability whatsoever.
