    Fun Feast Things

    So just having a little bit of fun today in feast, started playing today as Silver rank, on WAR. Trash heals, trash DPS, while the other team was the vs the same people who kept wrecking my teams. So I change to WHM, trash DPS, some games the other teams even doubled our damage (one was 330k their team vs my two who had 140k) with minimal deaths. BLM on my team 3 times, 4k dmg, 8k dmg, 15k dmg. And almost every time, I am facing off against the same people, never on their team. Whats going on? I am confused how the matching works to be honest. Now I have deleveled to bronze. Fun stuff, go feast!

    Once you get to silver rank in 4 v 4 solo feast that's generally when you stop queuing. From that rank forward you will generally always be given very low ranked teammates in a ridiculously stupid attempt to balance out your relatively (keyword here as silver isn't really high at all but when 90% of player base is bronze it seems high) high rank with your teammates non existant points against a team that will generally have average around 500 points for each member.

    I'm not even silver, I'm floating at 800 bronze and I'm running into this issue as a ranged dps. My win rate's already fallen from 61% close to 50%, to the point that solo queue seems like a coin flip on which team has the poorer member(s). Because honestly, that's what it boils down to when some of these games lasts as long as they do for the wrong reasons.


    This is what my typical queue time is around this time of the day, as a ranged dps. And its utterly frustrating when 50% of the time, my game goes south because someone in my team either lacks basic awareness, doesn't know how to pvp, or both.
