New matchmaking system is a failure

[Aviars]

Games as staggered so those unranked will get pooled with others because SE won't have people wait 10+ minutes just to match their pool.

Until there's enough players that there are multiple games worth of players at the same tier, no matchmaking fix will work.

To be fair I would rather wait 10 minutes for a half decent game than get a instant que to have 3 unranked people on my team. Seems like the system currently only accounts for who are currently in the que rather than the time you spend in the que. I personally would wait longer for the system to see if people who are closer in level enter the system that than what is immediately available.

Me too.

With that said, we don't want a repeat of what happened with Wolves Den which absolutely killed the mode altogether. If restrictions are too heavy, then queues will be excessively long and games will not pop, which leads to people not queuing anymore, which leads to a dead mode.
