Sure, spending money does not guarantee a W but it does help.

Does anyone think most of the Wallet Warriors  would stay & pay if they weren't getting, at least, some preferred MM & RNG?

 

Oh boy maybe I should start spending money then?

If you haven't spent money & are also in a purple clan then good for you.

I had a few nonstop games in Kansas to get Minnesota for Santa's Eve missions. Out of 13 game in a row with Kansas, 10 games was up tiered and 80% was TX. 3 games was with T6... it was horrible as I had a strait 13 game lost and had to exit game to not get a heart attack from being very annoyed.

My win rate in Kansas is 0% lol and had to fxp.

 

Whom at WG thinks it fun to play against T10 in a T8. Sure it's doable and I had hundreds of games where I ended top of the log in my T8 in TX matches, that doesn't mean it was fun.

Random matchmaker is appalling. Surely it's straightforward to roughly match up teams that mirror each others broad XP/WR etc? So many games end up a stomp one way or another.

 

About 1 in 10 Randoms is entertaining, maybe 2...

6 clan members in the opposite team. [edited]that.

It has been said before, many many times. 

Sync dropping is not forbidden. Unless they actually rig the game. 

 

So If those people actually play for the win, it is completely ok to do that. 

I suggest you try that too, It is fun!

You know they're all on Discord. You know they jump from one clan to the other.

Not necessarily. Since there is no mechanic to stop this, it can happen by accident. Its rare, its unlikely but it definatly does happen. Ive had it several times already, heck the craziest thing was 2 guys + 1 from my clan in ranked and on the same side! We had no idea of the others playing ranked aswell. Of we got insulted and reported several times because of Sherlock Homses knows "exactly whats going on" - ill spare the rest of the insults against me, our clan and so on.

 

btw you marked the wrong Crysantos ^^

 

and another btw: do you know, that a lotof people have super good connections across clans? I for example am very much in the structure of 2 other clans then the one thats showing up next to my name. I could "rig games" with any of those guys, if we wanted to. How would you want to tell, since you have no clue - looks just like a normal game, people from different clans... so thats why you shouldnt read too much into it. If people would seriously want to rug stuff, they would do it much more subtile and so smart, you couldnt even tell.

Exactly. And actually blatent, obvious rigging ive seen only once, when there was 1 guy of that clan in our team and a divi of 3 in the other. It became 100 % clear when they fed the BB on our team to their DD in an efford to win the game. Joke was on them, due to the way the BB played, I suspected what wa going on and killed the DD in the process. They lost the game and most likely got punished, since I did send the replayfile directly to MrConway. But again: thats 1 time of I dont know how many occasions ive seen several players of the same clan in the same game.

Me too, 

and it was in ranked.. 

2 people trying to carry.. 

 

as a member of a community who does a lot of syncdropping together, 

I always say... the aim is not to go into the same team but rather to the opposite teams..

so we can kill each other and have fun together! 

we even did a competition in our clan in ranked... "headhunter" thropy has been given to the one who killed most clan members in ranked season. 

won 5K coal from the treasury. :) 

 

Actually I don't like going into the same team.. 

we've once went in there with 7 people.. and lost.. 

it was... have no words... 

deserved all the heat we've had..

2 guys same clan, different teams. Didnt shoot one another, and in the end, they rammed each other with their BBs so the other could save his star. I told them, ill report them to WG, and suddenly they started to be really scared. Before, they were totaly smug in chat and made fun of the others... guess they deserved what was coming to them :cap_horn:

Thats shamefur dispray :cap_haloween:

But yea, I actually dont like syncdropping either. Done it a few times, since the guys wanted it, but very often you get insulted, sometimes people refuse to play and so on. So for the sake of not pissing of people, I do this very rarely. But yea, we had good times in Discord, when you farm your clanmates BB from island cover with something like smolensk or minotaur and there is nothing he can do except making remarks in voice, how broken these ships are :Smile_teethhappy: (and then blindfires you, to almost delete you on spot, which makes you realize, you are not dealing with the average BB pleb here, right @kaner189 ? [if he ever visits the forum :D] ^^)

How cruel, 2bbs for once not shooting at each other but actually important targets, and 2 players (probably in a high and small bracket, because I don’t think you spend to much time at Rank15) manipulates the MM to throw them in the same match, absolutely not random. Deserved report. If this are you worst problems when playing WoWs, congratulations.

Again, bear, don't forget to renew you purple subscription mm pack.

Told you this before.

But I've just paid that on my NA account. WG said they would do a combined subscription but so far nothing.

I suggest you re-name Random battles to something like "You'll randomly be dropped into a battle where half the opposition are on clan comms together. Have fun with that crap"

MM seems to be extremely unfair lately... to the enemy teams that is. 

I guess it must be because of my premium account and I get preferential or something.

Existing blacklist system might be a good solutuon if it works that way.
