Battlegrounds match ups lately

DrWooper

I'm usually not one to repeat stuff out loud but please can someone address this?

I've been in plat 4 for about a week now, everyday I try to play Battlegrounds to progress (using energy) but I keep facing valiants, legend titles and high tier paragons

I myself am a throne breaker but I'm only missing one r4 to become paragon.

Is the matchmaking based on my roster or my progression title? Because I only have one 7 star r1 and 6 stars r3 and r4...so I find it hard to compete with these opponents l

I agree and completely understand.
Matchmaking in Battle Grounds is ridiculous.
Why don't kabam do it like for arenas, where u get 3 choices and u pick???

Speaking of arenas, did kabam change up the matchmaking also???
There use to be a pattern before.
Now it's all over the place. I've had choices where every one is way more powerful than me! And I notice same enemies show up a lot!
Serpent!
Deathless Thanos!
Onslsught!

Its a PvP mode you are not supposed to win.
Only thing you can do is strengthen your rosters and treat BGs as a side mode.

Neither. It’s based on your current tier in BG. Strength of roster has no impact on matchmaking.

You are right to be fair.

Thanks for answering, seems like I'll hold off for now then, I'd like to say I did pretty good getting to diamond 3 with a pretty weak roster, so i'll wait till I get my roster to a corresponding level to the tier I'm in.

You can also try the last few days of BG. Everybody then rushes to get to GC, and it's easier to climb past your current ceiling.

At least you got the right attitude. Focus on story, not on BGs, do the objectives, try to grab the most you can from the solo event (it will no longer be there on future seasons so nothing to worry about).

100% man, no reason to come here and argue or invalidate others.

Also, thanks for these tips. I'm currently in the Bahamet quest of the story, and I'll definitely finish up those objectives.
