    New Record! Just had a Seal Rock match where my team finished on 0. Nul points. And it appeared people were trying.

    MMR now.

    I've had that happen a few times and it actually impresses me since this is without premades.

    That's what happens when players decide to pick on the team with the lowest score in order to secure a win. Again, a legit strategy to make sure that they aren't the ones screwed over. After all, if it isn't about farming for xp it about making sure that you don't place last. Definitely not sure that a MMR system will help in a casual mode.

    I understand by "casual" you mean non-ranked, but using the broader meaning, FL is played so casually by some they are reluctant to press their buttons, and so competitively by others that they get on voice chat and use meta stacks in light parties. In the absence of queue separation, an MMR simply puts those watching Netflix in tier 3, the sweaty tryhards in tier 1, and the bulk of serious players in tier 2.

    I'm sure many of you will be familiar with the military principle of Boucles d'or which I believe can be applied to the current situation, even if you are not overfond of porridge.
