Any ideas? The brawl is not quite playable because of the wait. Try selecting a different ship type that may help. Considering it is a tier 5 brawl j am suspecting that battleships and then destroyers are the highest in number so pick a tier 5 cruiser instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not really random now anyway a lot of the teams have clan divisions and the other team does not . I don't find two 3 man clan division very random when you know who you are playing with before you get there talk with each other protect each others backs . I mean I understand it's fun and i'm not saying get rid of it but you can hardly call it random since you set yourself up to play with 2 other friends .

Basically their time limit needs to cap out sooner for skill based mm. Perhaps 2 minutes? Edited January 25, 2022 by Ducky_shot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My secret is being solidly below average.... There's another wrinkle to that. What is skill measured by? WR or PR? In my case I've never re-rolled my account so all my early poor play baggage stays with me and is not entirely reflective on my current level of play. MM would probably underestimate me.

Why they pointlessly segregate, I'll never know. Just dump all these modes in the Random pool. Edit: Also it's tier 5..... no one players tier 5 smh.

Yes really, SBMM is a thing for Brawl regardless of divisions, divisions just make the MM worse for everyone and the queue longer for people in them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
