    Frontlines has 72 players. Switching has little impact and it's not a ranked mode. Being able to switch willy nilly in a ranked CC match would be completely broken. It would just be constant counter picking jobs every time someone dies. The matchmaking isn't great, but it does take into account the jobs roles. More often than not if there's a tank on one side then there will be one on the other side. Being able to switch at will would break the matchmaking.

    It's a stupid idea and you should feel bad for suggesting it. Get good with the job you picked to queue with or go play unranked mode.

    And to be frank, if you're jumping into ranked only for the exp....you're the problem.

    In Frontlines and Rival Wings it made little difference because you could not see the enemy team UI regarding the jobs they are playing.

    The problem in CC would be not counterpicking after each death since this would affect your Limit Break economy, it would simply be counterpicking at the start of the round. Assuming no changes to the enemy team UI (visibility of jobs, HP values and buffs before match starts), it would just result in potentially frantic job switching or last second job switching. Even with hidden UI, it would be an absolute ballache for one-trick players since people can just make comps / picks to completely shut them down.

    Jesus christ, there is being harsh and then there is you being just plain rude. God forbid someone has a suggestion.
