every day or two there is new thread about arena match making. People ask kabam every day to fix matchmaking because they can't play arenas
But even if kabam will release new matchmaking mechanism I doubt it will please everybody
Thinking about this issue I realized that as a matter of fact problem is not in Match making but in streak bonus. Only reason we all want better matchmaking is because we all want to preserve our streak bonuses. That's what slow down arenas and create a lot of frustration. Of course, everybody want to get 3-4 times more points than basic points rewarded for each arena fight
I play his game for more than a year and maintaining streak and doing arenas was always big problem. Even when refreshes cost just 1g it still didn't help a lot. Nobody want to try risky fights because penalty for risk is too severe
That's why we wait and waste hours on each arena
I think streak bonus in it's current form should be removed completely from the game
Set regular rewards points to 39, 33 and 24. That what we'll receive without streak.
If we lose give us 0 points or even give negative points (-1 for hard,-2 for medium, -3 for easy loss). That will penalize and slow down botters
If you still want to preserve streak bonus set it to 2-6 points max. Say if your have 200% bonus you receive 6 more points, 100% - 4 points, 50% - 2 points, between 1 and 50% - 1 point
That's a nice bonus for somebody who can maintain streak ( hundred consecutive wins will give player 600 more points than players that can't win all fight will get) but it's not high enough to fear loosing it. This system will encourage players to take risks. It also will eliminate endless waiting for better opponent and frustration from bad matchmaking. So you will lose few points if you lose fight. Not a big deal
And I am pretty if such system would be implemented people will stop complaining about matchmaking
And I am also confident that changing basic points and amount of bonus points is much easier task than reinventing whole matchmaking from the ground up
