I don't have high hopes for the new matchmaking system.

[MARCO CAIA]

nordeus announced they will have a new matchmaking system next season, which many players hope can end the draw manipulation, but i doubt that.

From this year's update, we already can see, that nordeus is trying very hard to make as many functions and aspects in this game to directly or indirectly make players spend money.

I believe they will do the same in the next update too, even if it's a sensible system, it will somehow allow you to spend to get the most out of it. It will eventually pivot more to the p2w community and the f2p players will still get ass fu*k every season by those big whales.

I hope i'm wrong, but let's see how it goes.

you were not wrong! They lied and it's still exactly the same if not worse. Now there are zero chances the way they placed the matchmaking. It's the same old joke. These teams in the avq are matched closer but in reality, they are much unbeatable than ever due to the internal way they are set up. If nordeus simply looks at the total avq rather than the entire makeup of a team the matchmaking will never be fair for those who are of weaker %. Unless they take into consideration the total preparation stats of a team and apply them for real then it will be the same old crap. I have the weakest team in this league this season and I finished second last season. I am facing teams 13% and 15% higher than mine. To all who say it's doable to defeat them you are either living in fantasyland or just do not get it. In reality, how many truly have won games against teams that are 13 to 15% stronger? And I'm not talking about once or twice. Sure we are no longer facing teams at 20 plus % stronger but still all this is set up to make us either spend more to catch up or fail. Sure with fewer tweaks we can close the gap more easily but still the same garbage, they changed nothing in reality.
