BG matching

Didn't Kabam said they were working on BG matching? When is it going to be release? I get paired with 2million accounts and with 9 million accounts, mine is 5.6m

It's internet/server issue, not on you. Happens quiet often. Ignore it, or tag a mod and ask them to delete one.

Thats not the issue in match making that they’re working on. I’m pretty sure the match making fix is something to do with gladiator circuit. Can’t find the official text, but you being paired with someone who has a higher rating but is the same rank as you will persist even after their update.

This is the quote from crash :

“New ELO tuning and matchmaking settings - This change is related to solving the issue of players at the top running away from the field and having trouble finding matches. Obviously making sure players can always find a match will become even more important once we introduce rating decay. The way this will work is players’ ratings will move less the higher up the ladder they are, keeping the field closer together. Players at lower ranks will also have a larger bias towards winning, in the sense that they will earn more rating for winning than they lose for losing. It means generally that more participation will be better. This will not however apply to the top of the leaderboard, the best player will still finish on top.

We also intend to implement a system that will open up matchmaking to larger rating gaps faster. We know the impact this can have on match risk, so we are also going to look at that scenario to make sure the system feels fair.
Target Timeline: TBD, will be introduced alongside #5”

Matchmaking seems even worse than previous seasons

They match you with someone in the same tier or same gladiator circuit account rating. It’s not done by base hero rating or account strength. If you’re always fighting people who have much bigger accounts, that means you’ve pushed to the point where you’re playing better than most people with your account size.

Your options are to keep playing and try to beat those accounts or wait until slightly smaller accounts catch up to you. Or go play other content and rank up champs.

My issue is that I have all the content I can do already done, 100% explored until latest act in quest, not good enough or no headless champions to play the high level content, so I'm stuck at BGs, won 7 in a row then lost 7 in a row and back again. Last season I managed to get to 160 GC points but that's my all time best

It sounds frustrating, but if you can crack the 100 GC rating cieling, you're in a much better position than a lot of progressing players. You're strong enough to get that 10,000 radiance award, which a ton of players won't get close to.

That was last season, this one is impossible for me so far , maximum I got was 70 points and now back to 0, so I won't be playing much more this season and wait until next and see if the nodes are better

If you made it to GC, you're facing the competition you should be facing. There's no protections in GC.
