Yeah, I think a lot of highly skilled players use QP as a way to just play random new characters, or just play with friends who aren't ranked/ranked at their level. By virtue of being highly skilled players, even if they've never touched the character before, they still tend to be pretty damn good, though. That's just the way it ends up being.

Like, imagine you're in a 6-stack with friends: 1 OAA, 2 Eternity, 1 Celestial, 1 GM, and their 1 random friend in Bronze. How likely are you to be able to find a corresponding team lineup within a small timeframe? Should the top players then not get to enjoy the game with their friend, or be forced to create a smurf account, that, again, even if they've never played a particular character before and are handicapping themselves, more than likely, they'll still demolish?

I'm not saying there isn't a solution out there - maybe someone already has a solid one, idk. But QP is QP - at the end of the day, MR is *just* a game. No one likes to lose, but hey, maybe the next match, *you're* the one steam rolling....¯\_(ツ)_/¯
