forumname Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 With the removal of ranked 8v8s in 2.4, I will like to suggest leaving in place a system for teams of 8 to manually match up with other teams of 8. While it is true that automatic matchmaking for 8v8 has been quite terrible, I noticed that there are quite a few teams that create ranked teams but try to trick the automatic matchmaking system into matching them with another ranked team of their choice for: casual matchups for players within in their guildcasual/competitive matchups between players from two different guildsplaying each other in player created tournaments Instead of just removing the option of 8v8 team queues, why not leave in place a manual match up system for teams of 8 to play against another team of 8 of their choosing? Teams of 8 can put themselves as ready for 8v8 in a global queue, send a challenge request to other teams of 8 in that queue, or accept challenge requests from other teams. This avoids the matchmaking problems of the current 8v8 ranked system (so that you can tackle this again at a later) while keeping the option for ranked 8v8 open for those who enjoy them.

JediMasterSLC Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 This. Seriously, how hard could something like this possibly be to implement? That is, if they devoted any substantial resources to PvP whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin_Mago Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Yeah this would be the sensible thing to do. Think about it this way- with the "PVP patch", ranked is getting 3 maps and 1 objective type, and losing 5 maps and 3-4 objective types.
